I like how this photo is in black and white. I also, like the point of view.

I enjoy seeing the detail of the architecture in this photo. I think the people gives this a more interesting approach.

Showing the movement of the smoke is what makes this photo interesting.

The color isn't that great, but the contrast of the colors makes up for it.

The colors in this photo are vibrant. The shape was well displayed by the composition.

I love the perspective of the bridge displayed. I also like how this looks like an older photo rather than super modern.

This is really different compared to all the architecture photos that are of buildings. The colors are vivid and the lights give it a nice touch.

I like the reflection of this photo. The lines shown are also very interesting.

The composition is perfect. The color of the sky makes this photo even better.

The red is vividly displayed. The shape and color of the staircase is what makes this photo pop.

The lines in this photo are what make this a good photograph. The colors aren't that great though.

I think finding an interesting perspective is the biggest challenge in architectural photography because you have to make it different than everyone else's perspective. With that you have to figure out how to make the lines work with your perspective. Maybe you'll have them pointing towards the sky or go horizontally. Composition will also help bringing out YOUR perspective.

I would like to shoot in downtown Portland near the Pioneer Square and also on/around 23rd street. I will also shoot in downtown Salem. Downtown Salem really isn't that big and most of the buildings there are really interesting. If I can I would also like to shoot in Seattle by the Space Needle. There are a lot of beautiful buildings and structures there.

First Landscape Photo

I took this on the way home today out in the country part of Brooks. 

Q2-Week 1 Landscape Photographers

Marc Adamus is an amazing photographer. I don't know if he uses a lot of Photoshop on his pictures, but whatever he does he's good at it! He likes to bring out the blue, purple, and greens in his photos and seems to shoot in near locations like California, Oregon, and Canada. A lot of his shoots have the focal point framed in the middle. Some of them are off to the right or left, but the middle is seen more. He really likes to shoot waterfalls and mountains. Those are the most common photos I see. All of his photos are beautiful!

The lines in this photo are really interesting because they are beautifully colored.

I really feel calm and relaxed when I look at this picture. It makes me want to be there.

The composition in this photo is interesting because there really isn't a solid focal point other than the rainbow.

This looks like a painting and it blows my mind how it was been captured by a camera.

Everything about this picture I love. It seems unreal and gives you a whole new appreciation for God's creation.

Can you even tell what this is? It is so abstract and mysterious!

This picture should be in a fairy tale movie. The forest looks so vibrant.

I really like how the rocks look smooth and how the background's waterfall is the focal point. 

How is there a rainbow in a place that looks like a desert? I really like the contrast in colors in this photo.

I really like how even though this is at night he still was able to capture vivid hues of blue.
