Apple Pie
My brother always makes apple pies, and this one is no different from the rest of them. I thought that this picture was interesting because not the whole pie is lighted, so it creates a sort of contrast within the pie. If the entire pie was dark, then it would sort of blend in with the rest of the picture, especially because the background is included in this image.

From the Mailbox

I took this picture from the mailbox of my house, looking towards my house. I thought that the cool angle from the ground would add an interesting effect and that the sun behind the house looked cool, too. I was crouched on the ground, trying to get the house, the sun, and the mailbox all in the same frame. My fingers were freezing off when I took this photo, which is why I took it quickly and tried to get inside as soon as possible.

Spooky, Scary Photo

I was in the woods behind my house with my neighbor, and she had this idea. She put her arm underneath the leaves so you could only see her hand poking out. I think the leaves make the picture even more creepy because you can create this scene in your head. It was raining out, as you can see on the leaf by the hand, so it was really cold. The ground and the leaves were really wet, which adds to the  scary effect of the photo.

Hobbies, Abbi


When I was taking this picture, I could see all of the things that I love to do below me and I was just trying to capture all of them in the right way. I managed to capture all of my hobbies in the second photo, where I had my sister stand in for me and wear the Red Sox hat. I like the first photo because it’s a close up on two of my biggest hobbies/interests, which are soccer and music. Overall, I like these images because they capture my hobbies/interests very well.

Photo Collage


We were trying to communicate the setting of our performing arts center, or the YPAC. Many public events are held here, and the public rarely has the chance to view the auditorium from the stage. We are giving people the chance to view the auditorium from the angle on the stage. I feel that we were successful in this task because you can see what it is like to stand on the stage and look down at the seats. One thing I learned while completing this project was that when you’re printing out photos, it is important to have a lot of different sizes and shapes. These will make the overall product much more interesting. Another thing I learned was that creating a collage takes a lot of trial and error to make the overall result look like it goes together. The final thing that I learned while doing this photo collage was how many different perspectives we should have for the overall result. Having good perspective will help make the scene more interesting as well.
