Negative Space By Michelle F


This is one of my favorite pictures that I have taken this semester. I like the over all composition. I really like how the colors came out it is definitely the most unique out of all of my pictures.

Runaway by Jarred J

For this project we got to choose what we wanted to do. I chose to depict the life of a runaway. I like the way this picture turned out.

Photo in a Magazine by Alex P.

The theme for this photo was, "Photos in a Magazine." I really enjoyed this photo because it shows movement and i just like the overall composition of the photo.

Homage to Cindy Sherman Katherine S.


I really like Cindy Sherman's Untitled Film Stills so I did a project trying to take photos in the same style. I like that I am in focus and the objects in the foreground are not. I think I captured the Cindy Sherman style in this photo.

Fetch by Alex P.


This year i really got into photography, and throughout this semester i had the opportunity of working with my friend Jackie as my model. I enjoy this picture because when you look at her eyes behind the puppy you feel that there truly is a story behind the photo.

Parting friends by Elisa G.

As senoirs spend the last days of high school, friends realize that they will part very soon. I took this piture accidentaly; I just took a random picture. In my case, it became a successful picture. The two friends have that space between them, indicating that soon they will part. I didn't realize the foot in the backround, it caught the ghost effect; I think it was perfect for the parting, almost like disapearing.

Untitled by Ashlee b


I really like the contrast in between the flower and the leaves behind it. It really makes the flower stand out. This picture was an accident. I was walking along my driveway when I noticed this little lone rose all by itself on this huge bush. I just had to take a picture of it. I also like how how the picture came out so crisp and clear, it shows so much detail on the flower.

natural beauty by Rebecca A.

I feel that this project was my most sucsessfull project this year. Out of this project this was what i feel to be my best picture. i feel that the overall coposition is really good. I am also really proud of the way the butterfly and the flowers came out so crisp because it was a little windy.

negative space,taylor l


This photo brings all the focus to the middle of the plant. I used the macro setting on my camera which made everything in the backround go blurry. I believe that this photo is successful because all the green pops throughout the photo.

Teapot Refelction By. Rachel S

I took this picture of my moms teapot, for the reflections project in class. My mom is a collecter and i find them very intersting.I wish the picture was a little less blurry. Other than that i think the picture is fairly unique.

Reflections By: Brianna H

I took this picture of a reflection of trees in a big puddle. I photoshoped it by changing the color and made it a little more clearer. I also fliped the photo upside down.

Reflections By Jennifer H.

For this project I had a bit of a hard time trying to position the globe in the right way so the sun would be reflected on it. I found the spot of sunlight where it reflected on the wooden table. I think this picture was the most successful of the 24 reflection pictures I took. I like how there's a small reflection in every little bubble of the globe.

Three's a crowd by Laura M.

In this photo, I attempted to portray the topic of “negative space”. To the right side of the picture, is a leg hanging down from a body sitting upon a stool. In various areas surrounding the feet there is negative space. Especially the areas near the bottom of the feet; there is also negative space. In addition, the left side also features a bit of dept in the background. This forces the eye to travel, as this area is also occupied by negative space. I particularly like the lighting in this photo. The main subject in the foreground is the most vivid. Portions of negative space in the background are also very vivid.

Through The Eyes Of A Lens-Stephen K.


This photo brings focus exactly to the center.The perimeter of the photo blurs to bring the viewers direction to the middle and show a vanishing point.

Happiness is a warm puppy. - Veronica V

I feel this photo is a success because it captures the feeling of happiness. I like that the puppy is up close in the foreground and that as you look back it's body fades.

dog.sydney.p


in this photo a dog in shown which is related to the project with the topic of fashion. I edited the photo to make the colors stand out more.This photo is taken from a side view. i tried to make the background look plain to the dog would stand out more

tree-Joe B



I chose this phot because i like the different shades of greens and the the texture of the different trees.

Untitled Matt G


In this photo I like how it is dark in the back and under the skateboard. I like how it is light in the front but in the one spot it is too light from the flash and i don't really like that.

mychelle by Mychelle H

This is a picture i took outside because the lighting was so much better. The sky in the backround is a solid color is negative space so it helped bring more focus onto me.This was one of my photos that i really like.

Untitled by Sarah K.

Untitled by Sabrina V

I chose this photograph because I like how she looks as if she is focused on something else or it's almost as if someone has her attention. I like how the light in this picture isn't to bright or to dark and it doesn't affect the photo.

Untitled by Fallon S.


In this particular photo, I made an attempt to represent "Cold" as it was assigned earlier in the year during the class of photography. In this image, their is a snowman ornament. I set the contrast high because it made the photo have more interest and stand out more in general. To me, this represents cold because its on my christmas tree and christmas is during the winter, which is generally cold.

[untitled] by Katherine S.



I took this picture for the "Choice" project. When I first took it I didn’t like that the top of my head is cut off, but now I think it adds to the picture. When I took the picture, I decided to leave the door in the picture to make it seem like the viewer is “spying” on someone.

Cold Landscape by Rebecca H.


This was for my "Cold" project in my Digital Photography class. I was hoping to get a close-up of some snowflakes, and unfortunately the camera's capabilities wouldn't let me go much further than this. I like how the photo tends to look a bit abstract as well.

Paint Brush by Rebecca H.


I took this photo for my "Choice" project in my Digital Photography class. I figured why not use one of the things I love most as my topic? So here we are, with "Art". In this project, I tried not to shy away from using a lot of color as much as I usually do (although it doesn't show in this version of the picture, I don't know why). I tried a few new things, trying to keep it simple but interesting.

"Water and Faucet" by Kayla V.

When I took this picture i didn't really think that it was that interesting. But as I learned more about photoshop, I started to play around with the settings and the end result is what you see now.

"The Story of My Life" By: L Lent


I used this picture during a project for my photo class. I tried to incorporate different kinds of emotions for my project. This picture symbolizes, obviously, a broken heart. It was easier to take pictures using emotions if you were in that "state" of emotion you were trying to capture. I had a fun time with this project, because it could been about anything. At first I had a hard time finding out what I wanted to do, then i thought this would be simple, and have more options, since there is so many different feelings out there.

Acoustic by Kirsten F.


I used this photo for my negative space photography project. It's a photo of my brother's Blueridge acoustic guitar.

Canon by Kirsten F.


This picture was taken for my final photography project. We got to pick our own theme for this project so I chose the theme "photography." The photo is of my dad's old 35mm canon camera. :)

Colored Shadow by Indigo V



This was for a project on negative space, it was a "bad photo" that I made a lot better by changing the colors.
