Blog of the week

This weeks impressive post is by Jacky. Not only did she take the Hockney Style photo montage assignment and run with it...she finished it and posted it early. Her photo is outstanding because not only did she leave the school to shoot her photos but she took photos of something that has personal meaning to her. When you look at the photo you can see she was sharing her feelings. I think this photo is moving and personal, and I love that Jacky didn't just take a photo for class. She took a photo that she will cherish for years. It's beautiful Jacky. Thank you for sharing it with us.

Blogs of the week

So I went through all the blogs and I found a photo from each of the two beginning photo assignments that I love.

First: The snow. Check out Thuy Hua's blog. Her snow photo is taken through the window with the condensation dripping down. It's really nice and different from every other "cold" and "snow" photo I saw. Great job Thuy! You are Blog of the week.

Second: The Jaguar. I saw a lot of photos of the jaguar that look pretty much the same. There were a few different angles but for the most part. All the same. Briana, last weeks' blog of the week, had a great tight cropped photo of just the eyes and Crystal went a step farther and included a friend's hands in the shape of a heart to symbolize the "Summit Love" Nice thinking Crystal. That makes you blog of the week.

If you are sitting there wondering how it should be done, go check out Briana's blog. She posts her photos...more than I ask for and she writes a nice personal explanation of how each photo makes her feel. Then she adds a famous quote at the end that ties her photo to our society in a personal way. I love it. Great job Briana! If Briana hasn't added you as a reader...post a note on the board in the classroom that says, "Add me Briana!" and leave your e-mail address.

Here's an example of what she does that is so great.

Thanks for all the great photos you are sharing with the class Briana. I love it!
