SECOND REFLECTION

We were assigned to create a cd cover for any album of our choice. I chose the soundtrack to Lords of Dog Town and instantly thought of skateboarding and surfing. I got the idea of a skateboarder facing towards a surfer with the ocean as a background. In order to accomplish my goal i asked my friend Mac to skate around Bird Rock so i could take pictures of him. Once that shoot was finished i headed down to WindanSea, the beach by my house, and took some pictures of local surfers. I was too far away from them to get the shot i wanted so instead i went over to a skinboarder and asked if i could take his picture for a photography project. He said i could and to my shock i only had to take one picture in order to get the shot i wanted. Then i decided that the background would be a picture of the shack on the beach. Developing was easy because i got the hang of it and luckily all of my pictures turned out great. Then came the fun part, printing. I only needed to print 3 pictures and then scanned them onto the computer while uploading them to my flash drive. I am pleased with the finished product (below).
