I decided to use this photo in my portfolio because of its composition and deep meaning. The photos sense of foreground, middle ground, and background singles out the toy specifically and not the surrounding area. Also the photo being focused on the toy helps draw the viewers attention to the photo helping the viewer conceptualize what the photos nostalgia. If you stop time and really focus on even the smallest thing like a child's toy you can see that there is much more that goes into it that people realize.

This is a photo of a patch of grass in the Student Dinning Center outdoor area. Compositionally the photo's use of pattern and texture, repetition of the blades of grass, and leading lines makes the photo interesting and visually pleasing. I liked how the crossing of the blades of grass draw your eyes around the photo. Also the Black and white aspect helps you appreciate the photo without the interesting colors of the fall-time landscape. The artistic quality of the photo is that it shows an odd point of view of the grass since normally we look down at the grass but the picture shows the grass from a point of view of a dog because it is so low and in black and white.

I decided to include this black and white photo in my portfolio because it is visually interesting. This photo depicts positive and negative space as well as leading lines and framing. To take this picture i used a fast shutter speed. I also used a ISO of 200 and a white balance of cloudy. the artistic quality of this picture was that it was kind of nostalgic. this was because we live under the sky everyday and sometimes barely even look at it, each day the sky is different so having a picture of the sky from one specific day is special because it will never be the same for anyone else or at any other time in history.
