Choice Sheets

I think I see myself in Yearbook, because I'm not really into writing about people. I would rather take pictures and put them together as a yearbook. But then again I don't know what i want to do next year. I might not even take this class to be honest. I probably will try something else then maybe if all fails ill come back to this.

Abandoned Theme Parks

{Unable to get the photo}

The place I would want to go to is Takakanonuma Greenland, Japan. The reason that I picked that place was because I think its would be interesting to see an old theme park fall apart in the hills of Fukushima, located in Japan. It seem very interesting not only because its a foreign country but because I think it would be nice to see how the forest is trying to take back control of the land.
Other places I would enjoy to go to is old ghost town with old movie theaters,falling apart schools, and old antique stores. Another place would probably be Seattle. Not only because its a beautiful city but because supposedly there is a town right under the city. It would probably the only place i could take photos at, because I have family there and all I would need to do is go and take a camera with me. To me it would be very fascinating to go underground and take pictures of what use to be a city.

Portraits and self-portraits

 <><>

I think a good photo should have an interesting subject. Something that isn't natural. To me a picture is like a movie, it shows you what you don't see on a regular baises. An image lets your mind wonder. It makes you think and actually give you different prespective. To me a good picture should have some sort of feeling, or an image that triggers the viewers imagination.
My next photos I take I want to be a portrait of someone. Someone who can bring an intresting story to the camera. I want my next 12 shots to be better than my last, but I also want them to have feeling. Also I want them to be clear,and  visable to everyone.
