Catherine Ning-coins

This is a photo I took for the project "shape". I borrowed Mr. Barry's coins and placed them into piles. There are 10 coins in each pile and I kneeled on the ground and shot a picture. I focused on the second pile on the left so that there is depth in the photo. Thanks to my lens so that the background is blurry, and it shows the coins well.

Lara Dias- 1/16

This is a picture I took of a wine glass. I posted this on the blog a few weeks back. I think that this is the best picture that I have taken since photography class started. All of the shadows in the picture give it depth and the reflections in the glass make the wine class appear crisp. I also made the picture black and white which added a touch of sophistication to it.

Kim Stuart- 1/15 Sunday Post

Out of all the pictures I have taken since I have began this photography class, I believe that this would is the best. I took this image the same night as the image I uploaded for last weeks post but I believe that the moon adds a little bit more for this one. As much as I hate the wintertime I am going to miss all of the lights and all of the festivities of this season.

Catherine Ning-Clenmentines

This is a photo I took in December last year. Literally I spent a lot of time on managing it. In Chinese traditions, before the big fest, we have to eat some fruit and the clementines are one of the best choice. You can probably tell that there is light came from the top--That's my lamp. I also made one of the clementines in the front and the other back so that there is some depth there. Anyway, in my opinion, this is not as good as the jiaozi one, but it is still worthy posting.

Lara Dias- 1/8/17

I took this picture of this plant in our classroom. The shot originally had a few distractions that I cropped out. What I like about this picture is how the green of the leaves stand out and the plant is  more in focus than the rest of the image. The pictures in the background posted on the door are kind of distracting, but the pictures were taken of nature so they also kind of match with the plant. The white out on the side where the window should be also distract from the plant, but the light coming from outside was a really good light source.

Kim Stuart- Sunday Post 1/8/17

This is an image I took using my friends camera outside his house in Framingham. I was debating whether or not I should incorporate it with my holiday project but ultimately thought I should at least include it to this blog. I like the lights but also how the background is sort of blurred out in comparison to these lights. I also really like the solid sky background color because it also works to emphasize the focus on solely the lights.

Catherine Ning-Chinese cabbage

This is also a picture I took during Christmas. When we Chinese celebrate the spring festival, we eat cabbage because in Chinese, it sounds similar to the word "money". In order to make the colors good, I put some water on it. I also add some light to it so that it is well focused. I am quite satisfied that the background is blurred.
