My Trips to the City: Jalen

 

Our first trip on Thursday, May 16th was to the Brooklyn bridge and city hall park. it was a very interesting trip because we got to see an important/ famous bridge in New York. On our way to the bridge we saw the new world trade center which looks excellent. My photo of it (which is my second photo up above) is one of my favorite photos that i took that day. I like the way it shows the reflective surface of the building and how the storm clouds make one side dark while the other is light. Another one of my favorite pictures was my picture of the bridge with the skyline of Brooklyn. It looked really nice to me how the sky and clouds looked with the bridge in the center. Over all i was happy with the trip and the pictures i took.

  

Our second trip on Friday, May 17th was the walk up and down the famous street in New York 5th Ave. We were given an assignment to take photos and try to create a typology with a specific item in mind. A typology is "the study or systematic classification (photography) of types (things, items, people) that have characteristics or traits in common." My project was to take pictures of brand names. So the photo set above is my take on a typology of brand name signs.
