All American

Today in our product lighting class, we were given an aluminum can and told to go photograph it. I was in a group of three and the can we got was Diet Coke. Putting the hot dog with it was Skyler Brown's idea, and I think it turned out very well. What's more American than Coke and a hot dog?

Now I know my ABCs

For our lab today the assignment was to go out and photograph all of the letters of the alphabet. We were given about two and a half hours to get the images taken and get back to class to learn how to put them together. It was a little nerve-racking at first, but, once you really look around and notice all of the signs, it only took about an hour which including driving time. While I was downtown I ran into an old RCC student who immediately said, "You're in John Rash's class, aren't you?" It was a little weird but comforting that he understood why I was taking pictures of signs.

Bath Time

Hanging out outside with the cats. Taz ran through a bunch of bushes and got burs all over him.

Stranger

For our first weekly assignment for Jay, we had to photograph a stranger and try to get expression in the eyes. The first is Laymen, taken in downtown Greensboro. The second is James, taken in downtown Asheboro.

Silly Kitty

This is a negative scanned into the computer from my portfolio last semester. His name is Taz and he's my baby. It took me a little while to get him to sit still. Every time the mirror popped up in my camera he would freak out a little. I ended up having to snap continuously to give him something to focus on.

Crazy Business

This was an assignment where we had to shoot a self portrait with no assistance from another person. We had to set a self timer on the camera and get into position. It was a little crazy, and I kept getting weird looks from my neighbor. I even got bit by a tick in the process.

Hey You

Hey kids! This is my first blog, and I'm a little clueless so no judgement. Kay?  My name's Christine Damschroder, and I'm a lonely yankee down here in NC. This is going to be where I post about my thoughts and my photography. Just to give everyone a little taste, this was an assignment that was given out today. We had a total of two and a half hours to do it. We had to have a common theme, so I chose jewelry. TA DA.
