These two particular pictures were the first of many attempts at using black and white. Out of the two attempts I have done with using black and white images, I am more drawn to the black and white image of the Exit Sign. I really like this picture more than the wall of tools because it is more dark. In addition, the word EXIT on the sign stands out from the wall and ceiling, which shows a drastic contrast between black and white.

 One thing I do not think most people realize about me is that I love taking pictures of colorful and bright flowers. In fact, my favorite flower is a Sunflower. The reason I love sunflowers so much is because they are bright and tall. I was once told by an old friend of mine that we can learn a lesson from sunflowers. Sunflowers remind us to stand tall and shine bright. I took this picture this past summer when I visited a sunflower patch.  The picture below was taken when I went on a cruise to Cozumel, Mexico. This was my first time being outside of the United States. When we actually arrived on the land, there was many different colored flowers and buildings everywhere. The scenery was very eye opening to me because it did not look like what I was used to back home. Overall, I would definitely go back and take even more pictures than I did before. Colorful flowers bring me joy.  I want to spread that joy with you. CLICK HERE to enjoy!

 My name is Hannah Patterson. I am a junior here at Bethel. My major is Biology Pre Professional Health. I am a member of the Instrumental portion of Renaissance. One of the reasons I decided to take Digital Photography is because it has always been something I wanted to try and pick up on.  I hope by taking this class I gain a better understanding of the components of photography.  I want to share with you my own art blog.
