During my spring semester I participated in a photography class and once taking the class I found new inspiration in the world around me. I would encourage all students to take an introduction class simply because it expands the way you see the world around you. Learning more about the principles of design in a class setting inspires you to find those same patterns in our natural world. Being on Bloomington's campus you are required to walk quite a bit, forcing you to immerse yourself in the nature around you. There is so much beauty surrounding the campus it's a shame if you don't take the time to soak it all up! My photography class also helped me reach outside my comfort zone by asking strangers to take their portrait which lead me to meet some pretty interesting people!
These are some of the photos from all four of my projects this semester:
The last four were part of my final project; a ten photo set of my papillon pups toys in action which I was particularly proud of the final result!
