National Geographic

This is my favorite photo because the photographer captured how the outside of the train can be moving so fast but the people inside are steady and calm. I really enjoy these types of photos because it brought a thought to my head that the world is moving so fast around us and we are just trying to keep up. I love how when the photo was taken, it was at sometime in the evening really creating that perfect lighting. 

In our world I would love to take a photo of a river with mountains beside it to create that simplicity that there are places in this world still untouched. In our generation there is so much construction and constant updating that we sometimes forget to save what is really "beautiful."

Touching People

This photo essay was very interesting to say the least. I thought it was funny and a good way to brighten someones day. I think that this project was very uncommon for people to do on a normal day to day basis, so it was good to see.
If someone approached me with a camera and asked me to participate, I would say yes. I think that it is spunky and a creative way to create a story. It really gets people out of their comfort zones so I would defiantly help out.
A photo shoot that I think would be fun to do at school would be for people to hug each other. Not many people know each and every single person at Bowie so I think it would be a fun and interesting experience to see.
I think the photos are great! I enjoyed looking at these photos because normally what you see is either breaking new, plants or animals, or other common things to photograph. The photographer really took it outside of the box on this one.

Top 40 Photos

Selecting this photo, made me realize how attached people are to their  pets. Pets are like humans that create relationships with their owners and become connected one way or another. I love the way the photographer composed this photo how Cosby mainly focused the lens on the owner and the dog and got the true colors in the photo by putting in the right shutter speed to get the right amount of lighting. This photo got top 40 because it shows the real reality of coming close to losing something or someone really close to you.

I found this photo interesting because of the time lapse that the sisters went through to create these photos.  It is sad to see that the sister on the right passed away but it just shows the true relationship they had/have. I love that photographer had the photos in black and white to give the photo more character. This photo got top 40 because viewers love to see time after time photos to think about the past. Photographer: Unknown. 

The reason I chose this photo is because it captures a moment showing that not everyone in this world is good even if they are working for the Police. This photo displays that the officer has done a wrong doing and has to be punished just like anyone else would because they are not above the law. The photographer really captured the moment of embarrassment that the officer has in front of everyone around him. This photo made top 40 because it represents that everyone is equal. Photographer: Johnny Milano.

Warm up

When I first saw the photo, it took me awhile to focus on what the picture was telling me. I found it very interesting that it was in a different perspective to give you a different look. Turning the picture upside down was a brilliant idea to put the viewers thoughts in a thought process to look at the world differently.  I can use this technique in the next photo shoots that I have. To get a more uncommon shot to catch the viewers eyes.
