photo essay
The subject of my photo essay is nature, the first half in the wilderness and the second half by the water. I happened to be hiking in Blue Hills the weekend we were assigned the task of creating a photo essay. Spontaneously one of my friends asked me if I wanted to go to Newport right when I got home from hiking and I spent the next few hours there. This photo essay does little to show how beautiful it was to hike the trails at blue hills or to walk by the beach. Nature is gorgeous and people fail to see that. The concept I'm trying to show would be the beauty in nature. All of the photos are connected with their spots of blue. To guide the trails there were specks of blue on everything and I decided to highlight that in connection with the blue of the water. I tried to take the pictures in the woods from different angles and to sort of hide the blue on the trees. I managed to capture my friends in action climbing down the mountain in one of the photos. The lighting through the trees really creates a good amount of negative space in the pictures.
