Blur: A photo of my pendant swinging. Like the second panning photo I had issues figuring out the correct speed. Some of the trial shots became ghosting shots which some became overly blurred. I find this photo makes me think of my ancestry. How the Mjölnir pendant swings side to side reminds me of how a pendulum swings in a grandfather clock; how time has passed and continues to pass.  

Panning 2: This was taken during the Tuesday class. I actually never knew about panning (at least for photography) so I wasn't exactly sure what was the best technique  I found I was moving too fast or not fast enough  This was the best of the bunch; which isn't that good to be honest.

Panning 1: While I was sitting on the couch of my club space, I noticed my friends chatting outside and saw how much they moved. I decided to take advantage of the situation and singled out one of my friends in the group. She noticed me and stopped moving and waved hello giving me a great shot.

Pollo Rubato


Contrasty Light: Though this may look gross it's actually very delicious. It's a very old recipe where if you stole a chicken and want to cook it without your neighbour knowing, you would wrap it in dough and bake it. The light used is the oven light and sadly makes the chicken look gross -_- 

Bark or Bite


Diffused Light: Probably one of the best photos I managed to take on the "field trip" as there was enough light coming through the clouds to spread out evenly across the tree without making it look obviously grainy.

Hunting Boots


Window Light: I saw how the light came through the window in my garage when I did my daily work out and liked how it looked. After taking a few shots this was the one that came out the best. It was trickier than I expected but over all was fun to try. I still however will never be happy that these photos look grainy and sub-par.
