A walk in the park

I walked through Babylon park and took macro-photos of random objects I found interesting.  Some of them, such as the goose, were kind of hard to take. I found the goose sleeping and he woke up as soon as I snapped the photo.  As for making the collage, I found it a little frustrating. There were a lot of photos I wanted to use, but it made the collage a little too busy.  It was a very fun homework assignment none-the-less.

Week two photos:



This is a photo I took at Robert Moses beach. I wanted to capture the view of the wave from a side angle to see a different perspective of the waves. I love the way the  waves form before they crash--it tucks up into a tunnel and rapidly shuts. Taking the photo from the side really showed that.  I knelt down while taking this photo so I could get a good floor view of the waves.

This second photo was taken at floor level, but instead of a side angle, I took it from the from front. I personally like this photo better. The texture seems softer,  and the water blends a lot nicer with the sky then the first photo did.  By taking it from a front angle in contrast to  the side you get a completely different image.  The side angle photo looks dramatic, while the front angle photo looks so calm and peaceful.
