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.

Juicy Couture

I aspire to work in fashion photography.  For my project, I took a photograph of my friend, Karisa, modeling a Juicy Couture hat.  I think it would be too simple for Vogue, but it definitely looks somewhat like an advertisement.  I'd love other opinions/criticism.

Old photograph

I obviously didn't take this photograph recently, considering it hasn't snowed yet, but I took it in January of this year.  It's one of my favorite portraits I've ever taken.  I plan on using it in my portfolio when I apply for other colleges.  There are a few things I wish I could change about the photograph, but for the most part I am content with it.

Film photography

Unfortunately, my scanner didn't work so I had to take a photograph of a photograph with my cell phone.  But this was the final print to my third project in my B&W photography class.  The assignment was to capture motion in either a blurred, panning or stop motion sense.  I did try all three, but this was by far my favorite photograph.

In front of the camera

I helped my good friend, Rebecca Lader, by modeling for her at the beginning of the week for one of her class assignments.  I'm not usually a subject in photographs because I'd honestly rather be taking them.  She talked me into it though and we were successful.  She is currently a photography major who studies at FIT.  This was taken for a social issues project and was photographed at Kings Park Psychiatric Center.

These are 3 of my favorite ones that she took.  She has recently created a website for her photography where she has displayed a lot of her work.  I will leave the link below and highly suggest that you take a look at her photography.

Oscar the dog

This is a photograph I took of my neighbor's dog who stayed with us for the weekend.  I took this with my iPhone and edited it using an app called Instagram.  I couldn't get over how funny he looked and while I was editing it I knew I had to make only his head in focus with everything else blurred.  Instagram is probably my favorite app on my iPhone and can pretty much make anyone seem like a photographer.
