Favorite photo

If I had to choose one of my favorite photos I've ever taken, this one would definitely be at the top of my list.  I'm actually not even too sure of why I like it so much, but I think it has to do with the depth and the colors.  This spot is also a really perfect place to take photos.  It is very scenic.

Jim Lennon's Studio Visit

Visiting Jim Lennon's studio on Monday was such a wonderful experience.  I actually wish I could have stayed longer so I could continue to learn about this man and his career.  Him and his wife are two great examples of why I have hope in being a successful photographer.  I was truly amazed at how organized they were and how they know exactly what they're doing.  Jim Lennon's studio was absolutely beautiful.  It was everything I could only hope to have one day.  Their business plan seemed like it worked so well for them and that's also something I could only hope to have.  This visit only makes me want to visit and learn about more photographers on Long Island/in Manhattan or Brooklyn.

Vans

A photograph I took of Vans sneakers at a different perspective.  My favorite thing about this photo is the shallow depth of field.  I think if the laces were tied nicely, I'd like this photo a lot more.  This photo was initially taken for one of my Digital I class assignments.

The Summer Ends

I took these photos toward the end of the summer, but just edited them recently and created a triptic.  I'm going to do more of these because I enjoyed it and I think I could have made this one a bit better.  This was taken in Port Jefferson.

Time Management

As I just finished my time management ditto and filled almost the whole thing out tonight when I should have did it day by day, I've realized that I really need to improve with time management.  I almost always save everything for the last minute because I'm convinced that I'm good at working well under pressure.  Also, this past week I've been sleeping later than normally because I've been sick and I really don't want to develop the habit of waking up late all the time on my days off from school.

Kings Park Water Tower

This is another old image.  It was taken at the end of January of this year.  It's much different from all of my other posts.  It is my favorite landscape photo that I've ever taken.  I photographed this with the fisheye lens that I had just bought.  This is a photograph of the water tower at Kings Park Psychiatric Center.  It has become one of my favorite spots to photograph both people and landscapes.
