Written Reflection: (worth 5 points)
Question #1: Choose your top 3 photos. What did you do to make, or why do you feel they are so interesting? Describe each in detail providing specific explanations/evidence to back up your statements
I think, "Pit," Vater," and "Code," are my favorite pictures. "Nanay," possibly Just because she's probably family. But emotions aside, those three are my favorites. I really like "Vater," because it's looking directly down on a snare pad. As a percussionist I see drums all the time and I'm always at a slight angel when I see it as I stand over it. They can be very appealing if you just take the angle and move it in a different direction. "Code," is another favorite because people are always looking down at their dogs and actually laying down with one gives them a different look or feel to it. Code is a very.... electric dog, and catching her when she was drowsy helped catch the picture on the floor. "Pit" is one of my favorites because it's from the pit's point of view looking at the conductor. Not a lot of people get to go inside the pit and experience the feel. Usually everyone is sitting down, enjoying the show, but not in the pit. They're a part of the musical too, even if their not on the stage.

Question #2: What did you have to learn and understand so that you could successfully complete this unit?
I feel like, this assignment really forced me to look at a lot of average ordinary things in a newer way. I actually saw the vater pad on accident when I saw standing on a ledge above it. After that picture I realized this assignment might actually be everywhere and anywhere. Playing with perspective can also be challenging in a way, if you look across something, finding a focal point in the picture or choose what to set the aperture at, really changes the emotion or feel of the picture.
