This year I learned as a student in photography that most people didn’t even know about their phone’s true potential. Scenes, objects, people, and so much more can be discovered or interpreted in different ways through just one photograph. The whole semester I learned this and how to really create a great picture with just my phone. This semester of photography has changed my whole perspective on photography by introducing me to many new experiences taking amazing photos. My photos will never be the same because of this semester, teaching me how to capture well-taken photos whenever I have my phone out. My favorite project of the semester was the Close Up Project that made us use our phones to zoom in to take a picture of objects that could be easily passed by someone that hadn’t even noticed the object in it’s actual size. This was my favorite project because the pictures that I had taken for this project came out being really well. For example, the picture shown above is one of my personal favorites from that project and out of all the pictures I took this semester. Photography this semester has interested me very much along with some of the pictures I’ve taken. My experience in this class has persuade me to keep taking photography in high school, and maybe even regard photography as a future career.
