Photography 1

Hello! This is my blog from last year for Computers class. My name is Katie Brown. I'm from Doylestown, Pennsylvania which is in Central Bucks County. I'm thinking about majoring in metals/jewelry, but I don't really know yet. Hopefully, I will be studying in Rome next semester if all goes according to plan. In my spare time I enjoy watching television and sleeping and eating. I love living in Philadelphia because there are so many fantastic places to eat. Some of my hobbies include dancing, knitting, sewing, and playing piano. I love coffee, rap music, stuffed animals, and Conan O'Brien. Some things that I hate are celery, Oprah, and humidity.

I started in 9th grade and took all the photography classes the school offered. The classes were black and white film and one was a digital photography course. These photo classes were the ones that influenced me to choose art as a career. Photography is really important to me because it was the first art form that I really learned and fell in love with. I think that photography is a really important skill to know. It can be used in capturing snapshots of your family or in photographing other works of art for a portfolio. I think Photography is an object that captures the light. Photographs can be landscapes, portraits, advertisements, fashion, sports, etc. Photography is taking something from life and capturing them. It is imaginary and often takes conceptual ideas and makes them tangible. To me, photography is also about capturing a moment.
