"A great photograph is a full expression of what one feels about what is being photographed in the deepest sense, and is, thereby, a true expression of what one feels about life in its entirety." ~Ansel Adams

World War II Memorial

Its amazing how much DC has to offer. I have had the chance to play a couple sports (football, softball, kickball, soccer) on the mall and at every game look around in awe that we are playing sports on the grounds of such incredible monuments and memorials. So this week for my photography class, I took my camera to the World War II Memorial to snap a few shots. It was cold so I did not last too long out there but here are the two photos I submitted. I am going to do a monument night photo walk when it gets warmer so stay tuned for that!

This week's photo assignment...

The assignment for this week was using natural lighting inside to shoot a subject.  Sweet Baby Lyla was my subject.  This second photo cracks me.  It is what Michael calls "The Phantom Cry"... Lyla didnt actually cry after she made this face.  It was one yell and it last for about 5 seconds.  The first photo is sweet.... seriously have you ever seen cuter eyes than this??  I have a couple more fun photos from this impromptu photo shoot I will post later this week!
