Photojournalism

These photos are from a gallery on the University of Westminster website.

The university offers a year program in photojournalism, a career I am looking in to.

I love these three photos because they offer such different feelings. The one of the girls is sad and disturbing and makes me feel a little frighten about what is being taught to children in North Korea.

The one of the girl dancing has a feeling of liveliness and playfulness. However, the girl in the photo is a prostitute in Iran. With this information, the feeling of the photo changes to a little more surreal.

The last photo is one of my favorites. Although the gut feeling is sadness for the man who lost his arms, the feeling quickly changes to joy and respect for the young boy helping the man button his shirt.

Traveling Central and South America

While traveling, I want to stop in Costa Rica and Peru. This photo of Costa Rica looks sooo relaxing and makes me what to jump in and start an adventure!

This photo of Peru also makes me want to start an adventure. I want to climb the mountains and visit where my step-grandmother was raised. Based on this photo, the country looks so lush and natural.

Traveling Africa

While traveling the world, I want to visit Egypt and Morocco. Both places are so exotic and interesting.

The Egyptian photo is very intriguing and reminds me of what I think of when I think Egypt; camels, sand and pyramids.

The photo of Morocco is exotic but also has a feeling of hominess and comfort with all the people sitting around. I love the colors of the country, oranges and blues.

Traveling Europe

One of my life goals is to travel the world. I want to study photography in London and Italy!

The London photo looks like an HDR type photograph. I love the view of two iconic British sites!

The photo of Italy, for me, is very inviting! I love the view of the water and trees mixed with the royal feel of the buildings.

If I can't photograph my way through Italy, I want to cook my way!

Ads- Round Two

I like these photos not only because of the beauty and history, but also because they are sexy without being obvious and over the top.

Advertising Photos

I am very interested in work for an Ad agency as a photographer in the future. I love the comparison of the old ad vs. the new. Both photos are up-close, beauty shots but the photo on the left has an obvious newness to the angle and flare of the photo.

I love the elegance and easy of this photo. The woman is royal but seems approachable. The black and white adds to the untimeliness of this photo.
