1st Semester Reflection

 I)                   My view on semester one is good/bad. The quality of my work varied throughout the semester, which isn't good. There were assignments that I liked, which I put more time into and there were assignment I didn't like, which i put no time into. I could put more time into deciding what my subject is going to be and I could focus more on photography techniques like contrast and focus. The result of my project depended on whether or not I thought the assignment was interesting and I'm going to change that this semester. The amount of effort put into my projects also varied on whether I thought the assignment was interesting or not. Sometimes I put as much effort in as I could and other times I did the minimal amount of effort required to complete the project. I know that I could put more effort into planning ideas for the project and actually looking deeper into the project. I could take more risks and be more creative with my assignments. I have a positive view on the assignments I put a lot of time into, because i worked hard for that image to look good. I feel that I participated throughout the whole semester. I was involved and I completed my assignments. I could use my time more productively rather than sitting around doing nothing. I could definitely improve in all aspects of photography. I should take more chances and focus more on the contrast and composition of an image. I'm going to adjust the amount of effort and time I pout into each assignment. I'll spend more time planning for the assignment and coming up with ideas that will enhance my images. I'll focus more on the different aspects of photography and how I can use them to further my self as a photographer.

II)           I would like an assignment that has to do somewhat with nature. Something that has to do with the natural world.
