This photo is from column A and it is representing the colour red. The elements of art being portray in this photo is colour, line, and space. The colour is obviously red from the sky and sunset. The line going down the middle of the street with the road dividing the two sides of the street. The principals being displayed in this photo are balance, and emphasis. The balance with the street dividing the two side along with the cars and houses being even on each side. The emphasis is on the sky because of its differing shades of red and the sky behind being blue.

This is a quote rather then a picture but I think it still holds a lot of inspirational qualities that I try and remember and live by. Remembering that it’s not always about doing what you want now but rather remembering what you want or what you are really striving for.

I took this picture in my favourite spot in the world. Standing at the edge of my dock at the cottage looking at the sunset. This picture brings me a lot of happiness and makes me wanna grab my guitar and go and think about nothing and just chill. The horizon of this shot was exactly in the middle with the tree line in darkness due to the lighting. The boat could have been less prominent in the photo now looking back but live and learn.

The thing I love most about this picture is that the tree in the middle of the shot is perfect in its own way. The focus is on it but the lighting makes you look at the entire shot not just at the stand alone tree that is intended as the focal point. I find this shot inspirational because the tree is literally on a piece of land in the middle of the lake and it’s the most improbable spot for it to grow but it still managed to flourish.

The horizon in this photo is amazing. This sunset with the lake/ocean water drops being kicked up from the was makes the wave look like its constantly rolling into the beach. This picture is so inspirational to me because I would would rather be there then anywhere else. Maybe with a guitar or a few friends and just relaxing and enjoying life in the moment. There only a few photo that make me jealous and this is definitely one of them. This photo really also shows how focusing really changes a photo and takes it from being and average sunset to an interesting shot.

This is a shot of a lake in Algonquin Provincial Park. The reason why I picked this picture was because this past summer I was actually on this island is the photo. This past summer I was on a canoe trip for 5 days and this was one of the lakes we were on. It was a very surreal time because it was just me and my friends having the best time. This picture is where I wish I was right now just because the leaves are changing and it’s a beautiful photo in general.

This picture being back a lot of memories for me. I never really skated but I used to ride a lot of BMX and when I was younger that was my entire summer. All me and my friends would do was go to the skate park or ride homemade ramps we would spend full days making. The picture shows a skateboarder starting an Ollie onto a ledge. The high Angle plus the black and white effect really enhances the ledge that hundreds of the skateboarders have also hit. The reason why the ledge looks darker is because of the wax thats been put on the ledge to make it more slippery and “grindable”.

This is my own picture. Wake-boarding is a big part of who I am and really helps show my athletic background. This is on of my favourite pictures I’ve gotten while Wakeboarding at the perfect time. The sunset makes the outline of my body really standout and helps pronounce the grab on the board (which would be what a competition judge would look for). The cloud and tree line are cast into darkness through the sunset and because the focus is set on the sunset. The wave behind the boat looks a lot smaller then it is in really is because of the darkness of the shot.

This picture caught my eye because of the twisting path into the dark tunnel. The picture is dark in general and is inspirational to me because the path that your walking is going into darkness. Just like real life while everyone walking the same path no one knows what lyes ahead let alone how far and long the path leads. The green vines along with the old beaten looking entrance give a feeling of suspicion and unease with the path agead.

This picture is of a lake seemingly at sun set with an amazing mountain range over looking the water. i really love how the reflection give this photo the effect of being full and interesting to look at. The norther lights above the mountains also make the picture outstanding with the multicolored contrast to the black/dark mountains. After high school i really want to travel to this spot because it has been featured in so many breath taking landscape shots, I believe its in BC.
