What techniques were used to take the picture?
I took this photo at the very beginning of the semester when I was instructed to take a "rule of thirds" photo. The flower sits on the rule of thirds line, and the trellis in the background of the image creates the rule of thirds grid in the background. I took this photo in full auto mode.
Post Processing:
I took this photo in Lightroom, and I attempted to white balance it. I ended up spending several hours playing with all the different editing options, and this is the final result.
Why I choose this image to put in my portfolio:
I feel like this photo is a reminder to myself not to overthink my photography. Some of my best photos I have taken have been spontaneous or not thought through very hard beforehand. This photo has consistently remained my favorite shot over the course of this semester, so I feel it is only fitting to include it in my final portfolio.

4me4you Features - ‘reducing her colour palette..’
Artist: Vanessa Garwood
4me4you recently enjoyed a visit to PM/AM Gallery, where the spotlight illuminated the work of the talented artist Vanessa Garwood.
Vanessa Garwood, initially known for her mastery in oil-based portraiture, has evolved her artistic journey to embrace a diverse range of mediums and disciplines. This expansion has provided her with a broader canvas for creative expression, pushing the boundaries of her subject matter. Transitioning to a limited palette of black, white, and grey, Garwood delves into life's contrasting narratives with a literal visual representation, capturing the dynamic interplay on her canvases. Despite the constraint of this aesthetic choice, her works resonate with humour and satire, offering viewers an accessible entry point into her candid exploration of life's challenges.
In her latest artistic phase, Garwood has made bold decisions to paint exclusively in greyscale and switch from oils to the quicker drying medium of acrylics. These changes have streamlined her process, fostering a deeper immediacy in her work, which she considers her most personal to date. While her earlier focus was primarily on human subjects, including portraits, nudes, and dancers over two decades, she now draws inspiration from both reality and fantasy, blending boundless imagination with real-life figures. Despite the whimsical elements infused into her compositions, Garwood's commitment to naturalism ensures a relatable connection for the viewer.
The transition to a shorter window for paint manipulation may limit the time for technical refinement, yet it ignites a newfound spontaneity in Garwood's expression. Embracing this flux state, she thrives without the burden of overthinking. Surprisingly, the absence of colour doesn't diminish the vitality of her work; rather, it amplifies the raw energy of her paintings, captivating the viewer's imagination in monochrome. Garwood achieves a remarkable feat, activating the perception of colour in the mind without its physical presence, underscoring the power of her artistic vision.
A notable theme in Garwood's oeuvre is the strong presence of women engaged in everyday rituals seldom depicted in traditional art history—moments shared over drinks, cigarettes, laughter, and embraces. These scenes epitomise expressive freedom, celebrating vivacity while acknowledging underlying insecurities and challenges. They serve as a poignant reflection of a world grappling with oppressive struggles, yet reaching out for moments of joy and camaraderie amidst uncertainty.
Fireworks tonight!! - Just a small one from us, here's the box we're using!! - I kept the flare from the lights in as I thought it looked like steaks of fireworks !! (Or am I overthinking this ? )

it was at this point that Cindy decided to push me up that rock because she could tell I was overthinking how to put my feet. She was a HUGE help and this summit went much better than the one at Cone Mountain. But this was also steep for shorter periods. But also, NARROW. It was a ridgeline, basically. Open space all around me. But I did it. With a little help from new friends.
I was having trouble thinking of a new design, and was trying to overthink it; I thought I as going to need to model it on paper or digitally before building anything else, because the sheer quantity of cans has grown so much.
But, then my son Matthew came to work with me on Monday, and he insisted that it didn't need to be that complicated. I humored him eventually, and let him go ahead and make something. He looked at the Simpsons magnets on my whiteboard, and selected this one to create with cans.
I helped him get the cans out of the cabinet, because they were so carefully lined up and I didn't want them all to come crashing down. Then, he went ahead and made it. I helped him a little, with perfectionist type stuff (needs to be perfectly symmetrical! (or as much as possible, with the cans available)), and he created an outline of the shape with green cans.
Then, we worked together to fill in the center with different colors--mostly blue, black, and red.
It was lots of fun, and I finally have more pictures to post! Thanks, Matthew!
This is the first time I've ever noticed that the benches at the Des Moines Marina say things. Today's my moms birthday and I've been overthinking about her lately. Hopefully it's just random worries in my mind rather than her hating me.

this was in the little chappel that is still in use..one can sit there and overthink,there were even some peoples ashes scatterd around the chappel
Its a chaotic, story of a girl trapped inside her phone, spiraling through text, memories, and emotions she can't escape from by capturing dark humor and heartbreak of overthinking, modern love and the way our phones become both our comfort zone and downfall.
4th July 2012 - "Beauty In The Breakdown"
I've not been feeling myself recently, and I've been fairly depressed in my overthinking. So the melodramatic make-up and expressions are fitting.
I am aware that these aren't blended together, but I didn't want to. Think of it, as a double page :)
"You only have to let the soft animal of your body
love what it loves."
For some reason, this picture taken in front of the Bean in Chicago matches the mood of that verse. People being people, loving this particular spot, having fun, not overthinking it. Letting themselves be. And I did the same, in red, light and free.
This morning’s alarm was a shocker and I was up and out early for the first time in two weeks! The world was both bright and freezing, my new Winter coat lending itself perfectly to keep me cosy warm.
A busy day processing orders and catching up with colleagues.
Mum called at lunchtime to update me on discussions with the hospital. Following on from Friday’s ECG she’s having an electrical cardioversion procedure on Thursday.
We’re both trying not to overthink it and have made plans for me to sleepover that evening as a precaution requested by the Sister.

They believe this is the only way to be heard, telling them or asking them to smile immediately made them overthink because as a society we are unable to make people like this baji feel comfortable to be able to express herself.
A weathered wooden bridge crosses a gentle stream, inviting exploration along a sun-dappled forest trail.
Normally on a morning like this I’d babble. A lot. Not this time. Instead I’m just going to buzz around and do stuff. No babbling or overthinking. Hope you do good stuff too and have a nice day.

Overthinking, overdoing, undoing, unthinking, gouging, mending - making do. Creating a body of work driven by the fear of forgetting.
Memories may fade away, but true love remains.
This is my first attempt at layering photos. Still not sure how much I like it. Something seems off about it, but I'm trying not to overthink. Nevertheless, it was fun to try.
On a side note, I love daisies, hence all the pictures of them. They just have that age-old reminiscent feel about them, that dreamy picture of some girl plucking off one petal at a time saying "he loves me... He loves me not..." with each one and desperately hoping she will end with "he loves me". I wonder, why do we do that? It's not as if the flowers decide for us. Maybe we hope for confirmation. Either way, I love the mental picture I get when I think of daisies.
This was my favorite photo from my last assignment, titled The Series. I think the flowers from the tree that are hiding the sign kind of symbolize a deeper meaning. I see it as a sign of how sometimes we are fooled by the things that can create temporary happiness or enjoyment but end up being a negative path for the long run. The sign says stop and is being sort of hidden in a camouflage of flowers (the pretty surface), to cover up the real message and make it harder to tell between what the best decision is or not. Just like many things in life, this photograph is deceiving. I feel that my final assignment was okay, I got a little caught up on not knowing what to make my subject until last minute because of overthinking but it ended up working out I think. I think that I should work a lot more on my photography skills even after this class. I am not yet satisfied with them.
