Post 2



When I was out taking pictures I went to a new water source. The river was very pretty but the weather conditions were extremely frustrating and not the best for trying to take good photographs. I often found myself sliding around or getting water droplets on the lense of my camera. When I went back to look at my pictures I found some of the images to be blurry because of the water. I am not sure if this is a good or a bad thing. At times the blurry spots annoy me and other times I feel like it fits perfectly with the theme of water and the river.
Another issue that I found myself dealing with was what I was going to photograph. When I got to the river I was drawn to various lines that would would cut across the body of water. This was often tree branches but also bridges, pipes, and pieces of ice. I think that I am going to continue photographing these natural lines as an allusion to the river and its natural properties.
