After checking out the book "150 Projects to Strengthen Your Photography Skills" by John Easterby, I have decided to start a blog to record my progress. Each week or two I plan on posting one of the projects listed in the book and I would like feedback on what you think (good or bad). You can join me if you like and we will grow together.
MAY THE CAMERA BE WITH YOU!!!

Photo Safari Result
Project #2: My Photo Safari
It was a beautiful day today in Eugene, so I meet my dear friend Shelly and we started taking photos of things that are visually appealing to us. We started out at the mall, then went on a walk by the river and ended our safari at a fabric store. Here is the result of my Safari:
Why I like these photos, left to right and top to bottom:
The colors and reflection on the leaves appeal to me.
Besides that it is a great read, I like the pattern on the book and colors.
Once again the colors and pattern (on the bottom board more then the top), but also because it has a hint of 50's style.
The simplicity of the image and because I really like Chinese art. (I like black, white, and red can you tell?)
The text on the sign and colors (the fact that I like their cheddar biscuits helps too)
Everyone loves a little sparkle
The texture and contrast in this image
This pattern just reminds me of old time elegance.
So there you have it, my photo safari. I got the idea from Jasmine Star on creativeLive. She used the board to help design her logo, website, and branding words. I am also including this same board with all photos taken with my iphone 4. Can you tell the difference?
Extra Credit
After watching a Jen Rosenbaum on creativeLive (you've got to check out the workshops on that site, especially if your a photographer) I wanted to try to take photos through lace. Being at the fabric store gave me the perfect opportunity. So this is what I got with a 50mm through a black lace.
