Reflection jak reflection, ale na tym zdjęciu są dwa zimorodki! Kiedy robiłem zdjęcie, nie wiedziałem, że są tam zimorodki...
I think of myself as a very adaptable person in general. I use humor whenever possible, but I can “adapt” to different situations. I have been an Irish Dancer for 13 years, and because of performing for so many years I strive to entertain people from day to day. I am very focused on school as well; it is what keeps me balanced between fun and focus. Friends and family are very important to me as well, I feel all of these aspects of my life shape me as a photographer, I feel that my photos are unique by the way that I control my light, many of my photos have a very “home-y” feel to them, they have warm colors usually, and are objects that my family has had. Each photo tells a little bit about me.
My philosophy in photography is to be in control of your subject matter and try to get the feel you want out of your photos. As I said before, almost every picture I’ve taken shows a little bit of who I am. I really enjoy myself when I am actually taking photos for a project. Once the setup is done and the real photographs are taken is when I really enjoy myself. I feel that photography is meant to be a fun way for people to express themselves, and I try to create photos that make people feel emotions, or at the very least that are visually interesting and that people enjoy looking at. I am inspired by anything that I think will look good on camera. Especially if I have the right settings for a specific look that I want. That is another part of my photography, my photo styles adapt with me, I can create dark looks, and futuristic looks, if I think it fits with the project better. I always try to make my projects entertaining and relatable.
For my final project I wanted to show how much I’ve grown as a photographer by recreating past projects we have done throughout the semester while having a central theme tying all those photos together. I chose Irish Dance to be my theme because it has always been a part of my life. I felt that I knew it well enough to be able to adapt it to each photo. I decided to have several of my photos represent the motion project because motion, in itself, is the most important aspect of any type of dance. The set of photos also includes a take of the “Traditional/Alter Ego Self Portrait” project, a “Lighting a Still Life” photo, a “Macro/Minutiae” photo, as well as a “Different Types of Lighting” photo. I feel that this project lets the viewers into my world. I strived to show what Irish Dance is really about, and what goes into preparing for competitions, and what is really behind the glitter, wigs, and dresses. There was however, an aspect of difficulty. I had a limited number of action shots that I could really take based solely on the fact that it becomes tiring for whoever you are photographing, when they are constantly moving, jumping especially. Because of this I made sure to use my burst settings whenever possible.
Fireside Quilters display at Hedon Museum. Like the rendition of colours on this image - the merging of the exhibition lighting, reflected light and natural light..
fooling around at the glass table on the deck outside, but unfortunately, I didn't see any white rabbits. Where is Grace Slick when you need her?
Reflection of Mariahilfkirche (Mary help church) in the windows of Europäisches Patentamt (Office of the European Patent Organisation) in München (Munich), Bavaria, Germany.
Seen from the viewing platform of Deutsches Museum (German Museum).
The full name of the museum is "Deutsches Museum von Meisterwerken der Naturwissenschaft und Technik" (German Museum of Masterpieces of Science and Technology), but everybody just calls it Deutsches Museum.
It was founded in 1903 and is said to be the largest museum of technology and science in the world. There are about 28000 exhibited objects from 50 fields of science and technology in it.
Deutsches Museum is a fantastic, highly interesting museum, even for people who don't go to museums very often. It's a museum not only for looking at, but to try out and to experience by yourself. My personal tip: If you plan to visit there, be sure to provide at least one whole day for your visit.

Reflection on a Alfi Coffee pot.
Not being able to take so many new pics, allows me to have a look in the archives. :-)
Reflections of the sun on this partially frozen creek make for some fascinating patterns in the lower half of this image. The light seems to dance with a mind of its own. View large.
This image was taken along Geneva Creek on Guanella Pass near Grant, Colorado.
I really like how the perfectly still lake reflects this snoozing mallard. Taken on Cannops Pond, Forest of dean 30/05/10.
Reflection Engine by Andy Diaz Hope and Laurel Roth, de Young Museum Artist Fellows, Golden Gate Park, San Francisco CA
"The Reflection Engine, a large hand-carved walnut wardrobe, opens to reveal a mirrored space resembling a geode in which one can sit and surround oneself with reflections in an ever expanding infinity." Look closely and you might find my San Francisco Giants cap - - it's black & orange.
