This trail is in the forest near the field. This photo is a great example of leading lines because the trail leads to another place. I like the angle of this photo which shot down low so it is in the perspective of an animal or small child.

This is my favourite colour photo. This is a picture of umbrellas being held up on wire. I really like the angles in which I shot from and the contrast of the umbrellas and the sky. The colours of  the umbrellas are very saturated. The brightness of the top and bottom of the umbrellas are different because light is hitting them from the top.

This photo is a spider web under a bench. Since it is under the bench, the darkness in the background highlights the web. I can see all the little droplets on the web which helps it shine. The lines of the web spread in many different ways just like our decisions.

Shapes

This is my best photo because it clearly shows the outline of the leaf. The stem of the rose is a bit of a different colour. The gravel is grey and is full of small pebbles so you can see the contrast between the leaf and the gravel.The rocks are also shapes too. Just rounder ones.

I like this photo because the lights were beautiful and the colour of the lights are very different to the gray/black of the city. The vehicles makes it look like the photo has been captured in a time lapse. The specs of light look like rays of hope in a dark city. I like how it shows the whole city along with the sky because it doesn't feel like the city is contained in a small photo. It feels like there are things beyond it.

I am proud of this photo because the angle looking up makes the building look taller than it is. The flowers are a nice pop of colour when the building and sky was a dull gray. I shot this photo in Downtown Vancouver.
