Artist Statement- Field Trip
I really enjoyed the field trip and I had a lot of fun! I initially took almost 200 photos and it was hard to chose 10 that I liked out of the ones I kept. The best part of the field trip was going to the Bloedel Conservatory. There were several birds there that I had never seen and I liked how colourful everything was. My photos turned out pretty well. I think my strongest photos were 3, 4, and 5. I love the lighting in 3 and 4, and how shadowy the leaves are. I like photo 5 because of the colours and the whole summery vibe the photo has to it. Next time, I would change the aperture in some of my photos. In almost all of my photos, the aperture was really low and I didn’t always like how it looked.
