Lab Assignment #2

So for the first photo on this assignment I had to take a self portrait of me. I was in class and for some reason was feeling the color. It was super bright inside since the color of the walls, the lights inside, and the sunlight. I am showing my school spirit, and I just shaved the beard :).



This is a picture of my good friend OG that I took. Its a close up of his face in an attempt to capture his beard. The reason why is because my good friend OG goes through fazes with facial hair where he tries to experiment with new styles and he believes he looks really good. Unfortunately his hair blends with his face, so it doesnt always look that great, at least in my opinion. I took the picture to have him look at himself and so he can see what I saw in that light! I was only clowning on the guy, if he is happy with the results then I am too.




This picture was kind weird to do. It is a bit strange to go up to someone and take a picture of them, but I am a pretty open, outgoing guy so I got over it. I was sitting at a restaurant with some friends and I knew it was potentially a good place to take a picture of someone for this assignment. I noticed this guy and at first glance I thought he was a pretty serious dude. He was just hanging out and talking to his buddies, but there was something closed off about him. He was calm and collective, where I am outgoing and loud. I approached their table and explained to them what I was doing and they asked me to sit. At first he was really quiet but after a while he got a bit more talkative. I learned that he was from Chico and was passing through on his way to Seattle. He was 24 years old and was on vacation heading up to visit his sister, he had friends in Ashland. After talking to the guy for a while I learned that, although I assumed he was different than me, we had a lot of things in common. We where able to share stories about video games and movies and tv shows and what not. We where also cracking jokes back and forth. I took the photo after I got him to laugh a bit to perfectly show the good times we where having.
