Framing Ordinary objects can provide interesting framing options. The photo above is of a scene on my back porch viewed through a bench. The loop on the side of the bench frames the snowy scene. On the right, several chess pieces frame a pawn. The chess pieces are modeled on ancient ones from the Anglo-Saxons times found in the United Kingdom.

The light here is interesting. Trying to get enought light but not go all black or white was a challenge in these two oppsite photos.

Shutter speed and iso 8 FEBRUARY 2014

These photos were lots of work with lighting and time. I had to work to get the shutter speed just right yet get it bright enough to show up well.

It involed a lot of lights a dragged to the sink and a lot of blurry photos.

Portriature My friend Yiming Liu ‘17 was good enough to pose for these photos. The lockers provide a good backround for her though I wish I had gotten her outfit in the photos. It was a typical Yiming outfit.

lines When you start looking you see lines everywhere. I like the top one because you can’t quite tell what it is and the second one because of the reflection. I think the lines on the top one are interesting because it almost a right angle.

My dog and my sister were the inspiration for these photos. They are enjoying themselves on the couch reading and I had to take a picture. Rosie is enjoying her moment in the sun in the picture Teddy just wants to know when I am going to stop taking pictures of her.

Free form My dog is the reluctant model for these pictures. She would turn away as soon as I approached her with the camera. But they are some good shots I think.
