Street Shoot - the shoot.




I really love the angle of this photo and the detail and texture of the steps on the stairs. The lines of the bars on the railing, steps and overall shape of the staircase I find really appealing.










I loved the structure of this building, so I had to capture it along with the piercing blue paint, though chipped and old, still beautiful and vibrant. The green shrubs and plants against the run down blue building also keep the color popping.


It as really difficult shootingin this area of New Westminster, because as interesting of an environment it was, it wasn't very active, therefore making it even more difficult for me to photograph complete strangers. The people I tried to take pictures of were seemingly grumpy people and some of them would walk away or turn their backs. Poo-poo heads :P

Street Shoot - my experience.

I found it really difficult being really intrusive and taking photos of people, so the few people I did get in photos were like, me creeping on them. Hahaha! I had a lot of difficulty with this, but tomorrow I shall be adding more photos to the collection and I will be less shy and keep a steady theme going. Yay!

Objects Shoot - Flowers and a Crown








I had liked this photo, but after editing it, I loved it. I adjusted the contrast and brightness of it, and I feel that it made the colors of the color of the shiny petals on this hair elastic really pop out a little more. I also felt that it gave it more emotional qualities, those being feelings of grace, femininity and beauty. Does that sound corny, or what?
