Cole R Surrealism. I made the surrealism image in class. I find it compelling because I like Jeeps and relaxing places like in the image.

I chose this picture because it took so much patience and concentration to get the picture. The butterfly flew away immediately after the picture was taken and I thought it would be a terrible picture but I surprisingly got the shot.

Asna P - Insight

I made this photograph during Digital Photography.
I find it interesting because of how random it is. It makes me feel like it depicts how my brain works and I find that intriguing.

Anna Laura H - In the Woods

I made this photograph during Thanksgiving break at a barn in Leeds.
I like this photo because of the composition and her serious face goes with the moody background.

Areesa B - Future Car

I took this picture in a parking lot outside of Aldridge Gardens
I find it interesting because it is a very pretty car and the background makes it seem very fall themed
I find interesting things I have an interest in and take pictures of them

Lupita C - Brother

A couple months ago I took this portrait of my brother for a shooting assignment. I took this picture at my house and I set up some black fabric for the background and used a reflector on the opposite side of my brother. What I love about this picture is that it's a reflection of his sweet and kind personality. I like how you get this cheerful felling when you look at the picture. It's more than just a normal portrait, it portrays emotion.

Tiffany C - Monkey Gone Wild

Picture made at veterans park during the three day weekend.
I like the blurred background and the wood.

Kalandra B - Dandelion

I took this photo at my house and i find it interesting because it was the only plant in a huge space left standing.

Julia S - Kyle for Puma

I took this at Heardmont Park of my boyfriend, Kyle, playing tennis. I love this photo because I held up one of his tennis ratchets as he was returning the ball to the other side. This was for the black and white assignment, and after adding the black and white I think it looks like an advertisement for Puma.

Sydney Claire B - Leading Lines

- Briarwood Christian School ; beginning of school year
- The lines continuously going down are cool and the shadows of the lines being reflected

Caroline R - Grace

I was at a golf course over Thanksgiving break when I took this photo. I like this picture because the simplicity of the black and white edit makes the picture more effective.

Josh C - Lucy

I took this photo of my dog, Lucy, on the day I got my new camera. It was nice and sunny outside and my dog was just sitting in the yard. I was messing around with the camera and just simply snapped a photo of her. When I brought it into class and worked with it in Photoshop, I noticed that it turned out really well. I adjusted the levels, brightness and contrast, and I also darkened the grass to make her pop a little more. I really like the way the color came out in her fur and the way she seems calm and relaxed in the grass.

Josh S - American Ronald Reagan

I made this photograph in this class during the day of the dead
I find it amazing because Ronald Reagan was the best president we've ever had and America is the greatest country on the planet.

Jeanette A - Woods

I took this picture at Moss Rock on Saturday. I liked the way the water looked.

Spenser W - Down the Rabbit Hole

I took the forest picture at a clearing near my house, and the wood was just a sheet of hardwood that I saw in the shop of the theater. I really like the spiral for the text, which was a pain to trace with the pen tool before I realized I could type directly on the shape. I also like how the background of the forest fades out and how that makes the light look.

Parker W - Hidden Hospitality

I took this photograph after I believed I was finished taking pictures for our black and white photography project. I Find it interesting because in order to see this wonderful downtown welcome sign, you have to be in the midst of the city. it invites you to stay longer, laugh louder, and smile bigger.

Hunter B - Looking into Someone's Head


I made this photograph in the month of January in Digital Photography class.
I find this photograph interesting because it is abstract and an all-around clean picture. It made me push my imagination to places i didn't know existed.

Christina B - You're Next

I find it interesting because it gives off a dark vibe.

Bailey B - Lexey Smile

I chose this picture of my friend Lexey. It is one of my favorite's because I decided to go to Mt. Laurel to take these pictures of her. And it was so pretty that day the sun was out, the weather was nice and I remember the leaves were just starting to fall around this time. It was definitely a great day to take pictures that day.

Diana D - Hippie

I took a picture of each object right outside my house against a plain wall to get good lighting. I like this picture because it was the first project that I worked really hard on. I took my time to play around with everything and even started from scratch a couple of times. It is also more special because it includes things that I love. The thing that always helps me out when making a picture is always playing around with the placement of things. It also helps to make a small change because it can make the difference.

I like this picture because the cracks in the road stand out a little with the black and white filter.

Rikeya W - Warhol


This is my warhol project. I used the first self portrait picture I have taken since I've been in photography. I really like this photo because I have a problem of looking at myself a lot lol. But, I also enjoy looking at the colors and how they all pop out and appeal to my eyes

Michael D - X-Wing


I took this photo in my neighborhood on a cold day. To give the X-Wing the flying affect I used fish wires to hold it up and I photoshopped it to make add to the flying affect.

Kyla M - Abandoned Asylum


This is one of my favorite photos. I took it in Chelsea at an abandoned insane asylum, but what I really like about this picture is that the graffiti is different colors and it adds to the uniqueness of the picture. I like how it is lighter going down the hallway and there is a lot of rubble on the ground. To edit this photo I used the ruler tool to straighten the image and I also changed some of the levels and color balance in the picture.

Amanda S - Courthouse


Gulnura Z - Football Game


I took this picture in August, 2015 when I went to my first ever Spain Park HS Football game.

Bhammmm is my favorite thing i've done so far. I made this picture after I saw a picture of space and thought it would look cool as a background to Birmingham. It looks very interesting.

Alex S - Autumn Morning

I moved to Alabama just as we started the portrait project, so this was one of my first pictures.  I took it at home, outside, early in the morning.

I like the highlights on my sister's face and clothes.  Her posture is also very relaxed and natural.

This isn't the best photograph I've taken since being here, but it is one of my favorites.
