Week 4 reflection

1.       I did find that being grateful builds creativity, most definitely! As you could see in previous reflections, I stated how the more I further this photo project, the more I find more things to take pictures of and different camera techniques to express their meaning.

2.       The most difficult part of this project was explaining my thought process in the weekly reflections. Sometimes I just have ideas for pictures and really no way to express them in words. The most valuable aspect to come out of this photo challenge, in my opinion, was that you were able to further your creativity based on things you were grateful for. I definitely suggest this challenge to other students just because it’s a great technique building activity.

3.       A different idea than being grateful could be a change in one thing over time. For example, taking a picture every day of the new building on campus being built. This would show the change over time and it would look cool!

Day 20

I'm glad I took a photography class this year because I definitely learned some useful information and I've produced high quality photos because of it. Without this class, I wouldn't have been able to explore in Photoshop with pictures, like the one above!

Day 19

Cinnamon rolls are the best pastry ever. easy to make, and delicious!!

Day 18

My 3rd period English class with Vetrano is my favorite class! we're like a big familia :)

Day 17

Sunsets are always the prettiest part of the day :)

Week 3 reflection

I'm surprised that I still can find a different subject each day that has meaning to me. I plan on finding even more unique things while I still can!

Day 16

I don't know how I would get through the day without out mis amigos!

Day 15

Baby Beyr sleeps aaaall the time, but in this particular moment he looks cuter than usual.

Day 14

Music festivals are always extremely fun! Especially in a beautiful area such as northern california.

Day 13

Bidwell Park is very unique to Chico and when I first moved here, I thought it was the coolest thing I had ever seen in a city. Now I'm there everyday, riding my bike or walking my dogs!

Day 12

I decided to give Beyr a makeover with hair chalk. He looked fabulous ;)

Week 2 reflection

This 20 day photo challenge went from being a challenge to an enjoyable activity. I realize all the things in my every day life that I'm grateful for.

Day 11

I've had this ring for over a year now (which is surprising for me, seeing as I usually lose rings). It's sterling silver and I got it at an antique show that came to Chico!

Day 10

This is my nikon d3000 DSLR camera! It's one of my most prized possessions.

Day 9

My eyes are green with a burst of orange in the middle. I'm glad my eyes are green cause it's also my favorite color.

Day 8

Beyr got himself stuck in a pepsi box! He was confused..

Day 7

My angel doing what he does best, which is looking handsome :)

Week 1 reflection

I've been doing the 20 day photo project for a week now and so far it's been interesting! By looking for subjects I'm grateful for , I realize my gratitude for certain things. It's also always nice to try new things!

Day 6

 

Me and my bestfriend Vanessa on one of the beaches in Santa Barbara

Day 5

These are my sisters Christa and Courtney, me, and my grandpa Dale in the Bay! My sister graduated from high school that day :)

Day 4

I rely on my bike to get myself to and from school each day and it's my main mode transportation 90% of the time. It's good for my health and the environment!

Day 3

This is my Chargers blanket that my mom gave me a few years ago for Christmas. It's my favorite blanket and it's the warmest in the whole house!

Beyr is wearing his favorite football team jersey, The San Diego Chargers!

Beyr feels much better after getting a haircut. He looks just as handsome, too!

The beginning

Today is the beginning of my 20 one grateful photo project! 5 days a week I will be posting a picture and every friday I will post a written reflection. I reaaaally look forward to this project because I favor progressive photos, showing change over time. I hope you enjoy my photos as well :)
