Photography II

Final Reflection:

I feel like my experience in Photography 2 has been sucessful, because I gained skills that I didn't have before, such as learning how to use photoshop better. I also learned more about photographing things with meaning, like with the identity projects.

One of the hardest things was the photoshop projects. There were things that I didn't fully understand, like how to do a certain action. It was hard to learn to do these things, and it was difficult, because sometimes the result wouldn't be as good as I hoped. I was able to overcome these challenges however, and learned to use photoshop.

I really enjoyed the Time project, because it made me notice that my environment was constantly changing. I really liked noticing this because it made me feel more connected to my surroundings, more grounded and more tuned in. I also liked putting it all together and seeing the way the sky changed everyday.

I had a lot of trouble with the Surrealist project. I wasn't quite as happy with the result, because It was pretty last minute, and I didn't do all that I could to make an awesome project. However, the result is acceptable, so the goal wa accomplished.

I learned to appreciate the amount of thinking that goes into each photo project. Especially with the Sustained Investigation, I learned to appreciate the time and thinking it takes to create a portfolio. I also learned to appreciate the thinking that goes into photographing things about people's identities.
