8-30-2013: Red- Violet

This is the color red-violet. It is a combonation of red and violet. Color days seem really awkward. ALSO: If Emily Ward is reading this, then HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

8-27-2013: Aquatic Life

These photos are my own. I took them while on vacation in Tennessee. They are photos of a sting ray, a sea nettle, and a cuttlefish. The first picture is of my view as we were walking through the underwater tunnel at Ripley's Aquarium.

8-26-2013: What do you Like About the Class so Far?

What I really like about this class so far is that it seems like everyone gets along. Mr. Lawler interacts with the class and the class interacts with Mr. Lawler. This seems like a class where everyone can be themselves and not be horribly judged. Maybe. People like to joke around with each other and I like it. I can't take a class seriously if the class is incredibly serious.

My Favorite Photographer- Seth Casteel

My favorite photographer is Seth Casteel. He is famous for his underwater dog photography. http://littlefriendsphoto.com/index2.php#!/home is the address for his website. Seth is my favorite photographer because his work is amazing. The dogs in the photography look hilarious. The most interesting part of his work is the fact that his camera is awesome. He uses a high speed underwater camera. His artwork inspires me to become a better photographer and aim to try as hard as I can to become better. If I could do a project and use Seth Casteel as an example, I would use his work as examples of underwater photography. I really don't know what I was supposed to do for that last question in class because the sub teacher didn't really know what she was talking about at all.

First Post

Hello fellow students, teachers, and bloggers! My name is Crista and I am taking Digital Photography 1. I decided I wanted to take a photography course because taking pictures is what I love to do. One day I hope to become a high school teacher, but also do wedding and event photography on the side. Besides wedding and event photography, I also really enjoy nature, minimalist, and conceptual photography. As of right now, my favorite type of photography is nature, simply because I love nature. I love everything about it. It's nice to take walks at Hammel Woods, Pilcher Park, and other places like that and just take as much time as I want taking pictures of everything and anything. Anything can be considered art if you just look at it the right way. Nature is beautiful. Wedding and event photography is just fun. It's fun to capture the perfect moments when everyone is enjoying themselves and having a great time. Minimalism is great in every type of art; is sweet and simple. Conceptual photography is beyond beautiful. Everything about it is just awesome.
