Week 3: Reflection Rumination

Well, as I look back on this week I am a little disappointed: (1) I did not try as hard as I wish I did. (2) I did not take the time I would have liked.

But, despite those reasonings I am satisfied with most of the photos from this week. The chair is pretty interesting, and I like shooting up too. I have found it different and fun, and I seem to resort to that angle when shooting pics. Maybe I should start to trying something different. I keep reminding myself, 1 subject - 10 shots. Try from at least 10 different angles, who knows what you are going to get... But it is hard to remember that when doing something last minute...

I know last minute stuff seems to be a constant for me... But hey, at least I am doing it!

Week 3: Day 21

I was sorely running out of quick ideas for this topic. I wanted a picture of Nikolai looking into the fish tanks, but spaced it when I had the opportunity. That has been me lately, a space cadet with a 4 month old. It is a wonder anything gets done and taken care of, and that bills get paid!

Anyway, my glass of 7-up was on the TV stand and I decided to see if I could take pictures of the bubbles. Without a flash, forget it, it was just blurry lines. With the flash, it was a bright light with some bubbly lines and the lines of the glass. Brandon suggested to put the baby monitor of Nikolai sleeping behind the glass and see how that turned out. So we did and took about 3 pictures, and the first one turned out the coolest. Distorted in all it's glory, but peaked with Nikolai's little head.

Since this isn't really a reflection and I still have the 22nd day to do, I am switching these two. This upcoming week's topic: mother...

Week 3: Day 20

Total pics taken: 9... After deleting ones: 5. That does not include the ones I had deleted off the camera from setting up the shot. Reflections are a little difficult to set up. I did enlist the help of Brandon with positioning of the laptop, and the direction of pointing the camera. It was late and we were both tired. It was another busy day. But then, when aren't days busy?

So, the laptop was on a folding table by the sofa. We had sat down for a minute to review awesome pictures Yvette took of Nikolai, and I realized after shutting down the computer that I needed to take a picture for this. SO why not take one of the reflection from the screen?

Week 3: Day 19

Another day passed and I totally spaced taking a picture. But Last minute ones sometimes turn out interesting. This is a day that I do not think that. 4 pictures taken from the mirror in the bathroom and I have no idea what one to pic because none of them have me captivated. :(

The thumbnails on the computer looked cool because the power-cord made the tile look slightly distorted. Unfortunately, when pulling up the photo, it does not look distorted. I tried to change the film effect of the photo to try and make it more interesting... Oh well...
