These are photos of downtown Columbia, taken after it has gotten dark. I really like the colors in this photo, and the angles that the buildings create as they appear to come together in the background. I also really like the shadow that runs across from one building to the other, almost connecting the two. In the photo of the street light, I chose to take it at an angle to give it an interesting feel. I really like the contrast in this photo between the dark sky and the bright lights.

These photos were shot based on the word I chose out of the dictionary. I landed on passion, so I chose to photograph one of my friends doing something she is very passionate about. Although only the top of her body is shown, it is clear that she is running on a treadmill. I like how her hair is so dominant in this photo, creating the sense of movement for the photo. I also like the simplicity of this photo, along with the one of her legs in motion, because they are very direct and to the point.

These photos were taken for the body part assignment. I chose to photograph fingers, especially focusing on the ring finger. I think the engagement ring on the finger really helps to add beauty to the photo, making it more meaningful than just a picture of a bare hand. It symbolizes love and is a subtle way of adding interest to a very simple photo.
