A Day in the Life of Cody!






My life. What a mess. Well, I start out my day by waking up at like 7 a.m. Then I do all the normal morning things. Then I go to school. Where I see my weirdo friends, Jade and Katrina. In science class we are making boats out of cardboard. After school, I either work (like 25 hours a week) or I hang out with my loser friends again, like Taylor Reil. Then at night, I hang out, facebook, tend to my cat, dog, and bird. Then do my homework. Lately I've been going to bed at like midnightish. Well.. That's my typical day.

Patterns




These are the Patterns that I found at the park outside. The shadows contribute to the patterns, and are one of the subjects in each of the pictures. I really enjoy the patterns in these pictures caused by the bars.

Bubbles





Robyn got bubbles in her face...

Light and Shadow





These are my light and shadow pictures, I really like the light in the first picture being masked by the leaf. I could have tried some different angles. The second picture is a a rock and spiders, the shadow is more of a secondary subject.

Arboretum




This is a picture of a tree. I really like the combination of colors and textures. I like how the focus is on the bottom portion.



This is a tree trunk. The texture is really intense and it is kind of abstract.



The little creek thing! I really like the pattern of the sun striking the water. It created some great colors. I think this is my favorite picture for this assignment.





This is a picture from one of the unbrella plant things. I really like the color. It turned out a little blurry though. I like the sun shining through.



Some moss. I really like the color and focus point.  I could have tried some different angles for this.



A nasty spider web. I toned down the color to give more effect to the actual web instead of the surroundings. I like the crispness and pattern on the web.



Another water picture.The flow of the water turned out really smooth and clear. I really like the mini-rapids that the two rocks created.I like the combination of light and shadow. I could have cropped this some different ways to make it better.


Baby Birds!

So the eggs finally hatched! The babies are pretty much the ugliest things on this planet.

Spring

Spring is in the air! There are flowers blooming everywhere, the birds are chirping, and the trees are blossoming.  The first picture is of a nest I found under out big white gas tank. It will be interesting to see if I can get any pictures when they hatch. I do not know what kind they are, but the mom is almost all black. The last two pictures are of a blossoming apple tree in my yard. They smell really great, like Spring should! It's time to get outside and start this season out with a bang! 

I think the second picture is my favorite, I like the depth of field and the focus. The second and third pictures are almost opposite depths of field. I think the second one is just a little more interesting.

Land of Giants


The lighting and angles are a little different, but otherwise I think it was a pretty good idea.. I tried to fix the feet... because I didn't have any.. But I might have made it worse. Oops..

These are my pictures for details. You can really see the detail of the first chicken cupcake. The texture of the frosting is very detailed. The second picture is a lamp. You can see the detail in the glass. The last picture is very detailed, but a little blurry. The coconut looks very detailed.

Zooooooo!

I have a confession to make... I am pretty much obssessed with zoos. These are some pictures I took at the Indianapolis Zoo while on a trip to the National FFA Convention.


Lazy Sea Lion

I touched this beast.

I think HE is pregnant

This is the loudest beast I have ever heard.

Rainbow Bear?

Quack!

I like turtles

 
Colorful!

Summer!

Summer definetly needs to get here as soon as possible! I miss it waaaaaaay too much. These are some pictures from this summer... I haven't edited them, but they look pretty good.




Clark County Fair 2011

These are the pictures I entered in the fair last summer for the FFA.  Enjoy!

Best Of..







Ice

So the ice went away pretty fast this year, so I used some ice cubes! It's practically cheating, but it works. I really like the detail on the ice. You can see the texture and the moisture on them. I would like to have gotten some outside pictures, but that didn't work out. I really like the shadows contrasting the ice in the last two pictures. The pattern on the counter is slightly contrasting the ice also.
