This is my favourite self-portrait, even though doesn't actually show my whole face. I like that even in the small space that it covers, many colours are still present. I love colours! You might notice as you go on...
Anyway, this was done in December, my pre-days of summer. But thought I should add something before actual summer so this blog isn't so completely empty.
My name is Morgan and I absolutely love photography. I love the feeling I get when I am creating something or capturing a moment. I love that I can just have that photo so that years from now I can look back and remember the moment, the feeling, the people. To me, photography isn't just something on a piece of paper that you can look at once and put away. Photos affect all of us in some way or another. We are bombarded with photos every day, be it tabloids, classes, news, television. Photos can change our mood, turn us happy to devastated or mellow to excited. Photography is so important to people, to our culture, to our world. It's how we can understand devastating things happening half way across the world, how we can understand someones mood by their tones.
Anyway, that is all you really need to know about me for the purpose of this blog. I started this with the intention to post one picture each day of summer (starting May 1st) for the purpose to a) document my summer and b) give myself a project for the summer and expand my portfolio.
I have so many ideas of photos I want to do this summer so this will be a canvas for me to experiment on and work through my ideas.
Comments are welcome! I'd love your feedback.
Thanks for reading... see you in a couple months when I will be done school!
Love,
Morgs
