I found this second third of this photo shoot a little harder, just because the train station was just as vacant as the first time and I felt like I was running out of things to photograph. I tried to focus on odd or strange things that I saw and I used a lot of close-ups. I also included the sky in a lot of photos because it was so bright blue. My favorite picture was one taken on the way out of the station, on the stairs. its a picture of this bright green tree against a bright blue sky:

For the last part of my shoot, I plan to photograph in late afternoon/early evening, around 5pm.

For the final project, I chose to shoot at the train station near my house. The first third of the final project, I did at morning and it also turned out to be a day with lots of overcast which I originally did not plan. I mostly looked for odd things at the train station and not so much for people because it was early and not many people were at the train station. What makes this particular station so unique is that one side of the platform has an entrance that hasn’t been in use for years. It is closed off and is mostly covered in pigeon poop with a sort of eery feel to it. As a double feature, there is a very old cemetery on that same block with graves dating back to before the early 1800’s. My favorite picture is a picture I happened to take as the train was pulling out of the station and the letter “A” is framed between two poles of the train station:

For the second shoot, I will shoot in the afternoon.

For my first part  I decided to go to a park  where everyboday can find a lot of things to do an to take a lot of cool pictures. I never image that the park was so big until I started walking to get images for the homework and I discovered  spaces that I never knew before. So I hope I accomplish the first part of the homework and I the second part is comming soon.

My own experience as a studio photographer since the beginning of the semester was challenging. Creating my studio was easy to make but when it came down to shooting i realized it has to do a lot about using the lighting very carefully. At first it was pretty difficult but after all of the homework assignments with shooting objects i saw myself progress. It was really fun working in the studio, my favorite was the capturing the water in motion. This was fascinating to me because the camera can captivate so many details which is exciting.

One of the works i saw that captured my attention was Uta Barth. 

This picture was very large in person at the museum. This image is called the Sundial on chromogenic color prints. I liked this image because it doesn’t look like any ordinary picture the effect she used looks like the inverse of the objects. I like how you can only see the silhouette of things and not the actual thing which makes it look interesting. This photograph looks like it was taken at an early morning because it looks like daylight coming out of the windows.  This photograph opens up my mind to make something like this in the studio it can be very fun and creative. We can set up objects and place them on a table set next to a window with a lot of daylight and create the inverse. This inspired me to create something different and maybe combine objects together and make it look like something its not using this type of method. Overall the exhibition a world of its own was very interesting of people using film projectors to experiment many things. I thought it was very academic how people back then found things out without taking any precautions just seeing what are the outcomes of their experiments and what effects will happen.
