So, we all know (as if I don't say it enough) I'm in a photography class. It's pretty dope. I mean, I do my thugdizzle with the concepts I'm given. I think this is the worst concept he put on the syllabus— or so I thought. See, we have a portfolio update due EVERY week, and they're all themed differently. This week's: NATURE. Aaaaaaah! I'm from Newark, NJ. What the fuck do I know about nature? Not shit. Except, I do know what it's "supposed to look like". You just have to use lighting and focus to find the subtle beauties in nature. So, I went next door to these creepy-ass camp grounds (after going to the gas station for an Arizona & some gum). I went over there with this attitude, because I thought it'd be sucky and pointless and lame.. but it actually wasn't. It was freezing and I only had on a crewneck so I was only there for half an hour, but it was definitely productive. I took a few really delicious pictures. I love them, hope you do too :)
↑ I ♥ this one.
This is my other favorite ↑
And my last fave ↑
Aren't they dreamy? Ha. But, afterwards, this creepy ass man pulled up as slow as his Dodge truck would let him, up to my [moms] S300 Benz, and was all like "we can't have you out here takin' pictures of our trees, if you want to take pictures out here, you'll have to make an appointment". And I'm just like, "Damn, I'm sorry, I didn't know forests had agents." Then, I dipped. That sorta pissed me off, then I got home, saw the pictures, and didn't give a fuck. Taking pictures of the forest and only being provide with natural light really makes you reevaluate the power of studio light and helps you manipulate pictures through light and focusing, the foundation of photography.
—that's my two ¢ents :) I'll be posting tomorrow (or later today if something interests me enough) buh-bye.
