Assignment 9_GeorgiaS
Panoramas taken at Cape Elizabeth, ME.
Assignment 8_GeorgiaS
Editing with HDR using images taken on a Google Pixel 2 XL.
Assignment 7_GeorgiaS
This is a shot I tried to take when crossing the Piscataqua River Bridge heading home for Spring Break. My camera can focus pretty quickly, however there was still some blur due to the movement of the car.
The rest of these pictures were from my trip to the Peabody Essex Museum in Salem, MA. This first image is of an interesting metal reflective sculpture in the lobby of the museum. The second was a happy accident when my roommate decided to walk behind me and I was able to catch her reflection in the facets of the sculpture.
The next exhibit shows some writing and graffiti found in the Yin Tang house that was built during the Qing Dynasty in China. It is a snapshot, literally in this case, of how one family lived for several generations, spanning three centuries.
This last image was from my absolute favorite exhibit called “All the Flowers Are For Me” by Anila Quayyum Agha. It displays intricate Persian and Turkish architecture that casts shadows through a singular bulb housed in a steel cube. There was zero editing done to this image, which should convey just how breathtaking this room is in person.
Assignment 6_GeorgiaS
Narrative Ideas:
-Cataloging my daily routine, as possibly mundane as it sounds. But everyone is unique, so the possibility of displaying my individual journeys throughout the day may be an interesting route. This may range from my countless walks in between classes, lunch with roommates, and extracurricular activities when I ought to be doing homework assignments.
-Capturing my walk through the Peabody Essex Museum in Salem, Ma. The exhibits within are incredible, and photographing that experience will interest art enthusiasts and laypersons alike. And the wide range of art pieces and angles to said works are likely to spark interest in at least some.
-My mother has had diabetes since she was eleven years old, and over the past year she had collected each of her supplies needed to taking insulin and testing her blood sugar. She then put some of these items in jars and has displayed them in our house, showcasing just how much goes into keeping someone with diabetes alive, and the physical waste that comes with that from needles to test strips. This will interest audiences with diabetes or to those who know of someone with this condition, and show them just how much goes into maintaining their health. Now imagine that amount of supplies times another 40+ years…

I enjoy your creative perspectives, playing with shadow and light exposure in unconventional places for photography. The staircase image sticks out for its great patterns and depth. But I also love the dim and eerie picture of the hallway that gives the impression you are being pulled down into the image itself.
Assignment 1_AdamM
I love the work with color in all of your photos. The shots of the staircase in particular contrast nicely as if you handpicked the color palette yourself. The last picture I also enjoy particularly for the unexpected shocks of green amidst the stark white of snow and the dull trees. These were very well done.
Assignment 2 – SarahS
I absolutely love the unconventional direction to taking these pictures. And I agree with you on how shoes can house a lot about someone’s personality, therefore these can still be defined as portraits, which is great. Each are as unique as the person who had been wearing them, and the crisp layout of how you displayed the shoes simply and cleanly is very nice.
Assignment 2_TylerR
I like how these pictures aren’t framed in a conventional sense. Save for the image with the two individuals, the others have the subject off-center and/or not angled head-on. This gives a unique feel and perspective to the portraits, implying a nice narrative to the subjects.
Assignment 4_GeorgiaS
Taken with a smartphone (Google Pixel 2) which has limited shutter speed controls. I tried my best to get some motion shots to test the auto shutter speed of my camera, and also played with exposure levels.
Assignment 2_GeorgiaS
First attempt at getting portraits during a hockey game failed because a). it was cold, and b). it was COLD. So, I sat out in my hallway until some neighbors passing by were willing to participate.
