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.

Warmth: Basketball

We have the best basketball team in the whole world! There were many warm and exciting moments with the players and the fans. I was lucky enough to catch some of the moments during the games and celebration. I am very proud of this team and their accomplishments. The pictures turned out really well. They have a little but of noise, but are generally clear.

My Favorite Photographer: Brooke



Nature



Macro



My favorite photographer in the whole wide world is Brooke . She is currently a high school student from a town in the Midwest. She is amazing at everything she has ever tried in her entire life, including photography, figure skating, and fishing! She is the fastest track runner in the world, setting many records. She is very good at Macro-Photography, which is taking pictures of very small things. She is able to get really crisp pictures at interesting angles. She is also very good at nature photography. She can take pictures of any plant or animal. She is able to get great lighting in outdoors or indoors. She is amazing at taking portraits. The lighting on peoples faces makes them look great. Her pictures are very professional. She can take pictures for any occasion, including weddings, senior pictures, and baby pictures. She is always in a very beautiful setting, which amplifies the picture quality. Overall, she is an extremly talented photographer and I expect great things from her.



Portrait

Animal Morph

This is my cat. Well... This WAS my cat. This might be the most disgusting thing I have ever seen. It looks like its wearing a little wig.

This assignment was kind of hard! I had to walk around in the muddy yard and it was annoying. My camera has a pretty long zoom so it was hard to take the full-zoom picture. I think the lighting turned out really good and bright. I could have tried some different angles or something to make them better. I really like the depth of field created by the full-zoom. I really like the different lines and textures in the last picture, they are really crisp.
