I achieved my second quarter goals
This is a shout out to everyone in this class for making this the funnest photography class I have ever had.
I loved taking these photos I love sunsets and clouds they are so pretty and just a mystery of how they work. I did not like trying to figure out how to become a cloudscape photographer that was hard because there aren't many people who specialize in coulds. Chris Bucklow is a British artist who has captured many peoples imagination and has punched holes in everyday reality. He starts his day with his youngest bouncing around on the bed. After he has takin the kids to school he walks to work. On what he calls “photography day” he might go watch the sunset/rise. He says, “Every day is unique and important”. I think that we can all agree on that.
Although he doesn’t have one specific thing that inspires him to create he does remember the first thing that propelled him to create. That memory was seeing Alfred Sisley’s ‘Floods at Port Marly’ Reproduced in a book. He says, “I saw something that accorded to the state of my ‘soul at the time.” Chris produces work that he feels has some sense of purpose and knowledge. He believes that everyone is as creative as they were when they were children. It is just channeled into other areas of life as we grow older. He says, “It sometimes feels to me that a fear of the potential radical creativity of ALL human individuals is why society corrals the creativity within individuals that it calls ‘artists,’ and that these people are then the only people allowed to create. In the end he says, “Perhaps the world would be a different place if people understood themselves more fully.” National Geographic Photographer- take pictures for the magazine
School mug photographer- Take pictures of kids for ID cards, yearbook and to buy. So I couldn't pick my favorite of these so I put them all into a slide show. Ps there are 13 photos. |
