Final Reflection

1. While I did enjoy the project for opening my eyes to what I'm grateful for I do not believe it increased my creativity level. The photos I take I aspire to either make great or not on an individual level per each photo. This project did not motivate me to be anymore or less creative than I would allow myself.

2. The Most difficult part of the project was taking pictures daily because I prefer to take pictures when the inspiration strikes me not being required. Because of this I tended to take my photos in chucks and then post them throughout the week as they were needed. I personally would not recommend this project because I don't believe I gained anything of use from it nor to I feel like it helped my photography, but that is on a personal level as others are affected differently by these sorts of things.

3. If I had to design a twenty day project I would make it about one of three topics. Either what inspires you, what motivates you, or what you hate. I would do that because there are much stronger emotions attached to those topics than the topic of being grateful in this day and age.

Day Twenty

Through Fire Through Flames

 

For those who serve and who have the strength to fight.

Day Nineteen

Portrait of Nature

Day Eighteen

Carvings

 

 

Because art that is carved into an object lasts longer than the fading impressions of paint.



Day Seventeen

Color

 

 

beauty can be found in objects that are not usually viewed in a artistic light.



Week Three Reflection

     I am once again seeing my creativity grow as well as my appreciation for my life and what I do have growing exponentially. I am glad to have this project to really open me up to the world.

Day Sixteen

Dirt

 

Even things like simple weeds can have beauty in them.



Day Fifteen

Leaves

 

Joy can come from the smallest of places in the most unorthodox circumstances.



Day Fourteen

All day, all night.

Day Twelve

ART

Art of the body is eternal and beautiful.

Day Thirteen

Food

 

 

Nuff said.



Week Two Reflection

Reflection

 

 

 

 

       This week has been very enlightening for me because the pictures I've seen have been great, and I have been suffering from a slight sickness so I've really been on the look out for things to be thankful for. I'm not so sure its been represented in my photography but I've been doing my best.

Day Eleven

Classic

 

Never let the classics die. They will always hold joy and memories for years to come.



Day Ten



Science!



Through science all things are achievable.

Day N9ne

STRANGE MUSIC!!

Music is a powerful force that brings us and binds us together. Through music we can share more than we ever could with works alone.

Day Eight

Flames

 

 

Flames to flames,

Ashes to ashes,

Life captures in a bust,

But it the end,

It all returns to dust.



Day Seven

Revival

 

 

      Through winter into spring; the flowers bloom again.

 

 

 

 

 

My Force shall set me free.

First Reflection!

     This project has been a great help to me. It has allowed me to look at life in a more positive light. Not only that but it also reminds me that there is more to life than the bad things. On a shallower note, this blog has also given me many great ideas for pictures I want to take and how I might take them. It is helping to make me more creative when it comes to photography.

Day Six

Perspective

Here I am down looking up at the sky and realizing how small I really am. How in the grand scheme of things I am a small speck in the universe. But here, in this moment, I am infinite.

Through victory my chains are broken.

Day Five

Creation!

 

 



 

Music is infinite. Music is immortal. Music is eternal. Tech N9ne is a crusader in the industry of rhyme and rhythm. Technicians!

 

 

Through Power I gain Victory

 

Day Four

There is Beauty in the smallest of places

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 Some times we only see what is in front of us instead of taking time to enjoy the small beautiful things of life.

 

 

 

 

Through Strength I gain power.



Day Three

Perseverance

 

 

Through all trials no matter how difficult I will labor on. I will fight, I will crawl, I will sweat, and I will bleed. But I will not give up. I will persevere. I will continue, and I will triumph.

 

 

              Through passion I gain strength.

Day Two

My darling, my dear.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

                  Peace is a lie, there is only passion.

Day One

Eye love you.

Hey!!

 

I am a high school student. I am participating in a project for my photography class called 20 Grateful in which for twenty days I will post pictures of what I am grateful for. I am going to do my best to show the many things in my life that I couldn't live without.
