The concept about my final project is the scene after heavy rain. Actually, at first, I want to photography the scene of rainy days, which meaning raining moment. However, whenever I came out with my camera and decided to photograph the scene, the weather changed and the sunshine came out. Therefore, I just decided to change the theme of my final project into “after rain”, especially focus on “mirror” created by rain on the ground. These mirrors are most special because they are very changeable, and can be changed by anything happened to them. However, we could also say they never change, because they will back to the normal shape after anything happen to them. Therefore, it actually implies some life lessons. Everything will be alright after the “rain”. You are the most original yourself by just staying the way you are.

Lara Meisner Paragraph about Final Project Photo 202              I am photographing storefronts/restaurant fronts. I am interested in photographing these types of locations because they remind me of first impressions. When we see people for the first time, we tend to make assumptions about them and follow the cliché by “judging a book by its cover.” We don’t only do this with people though. We do this with actual books, houses, movies, and storefronts/restaurant fronts. My goal for this project is to make my viewers want to walk into the place I photographed and get to know it better; just like they would with a person if they started talking to them, or a book if they looked past the cover. I will continue to make work over multiple weeks by finding more and more storefronts to photograph while trying to make them look more interesting than they may seem. For my outcome, I expect my images to become more interesting and eventually I’d like to figure

  For my final project, I will be photographing parking lots and parking buildings at the State College. I am interested in photographing them because there are always some interesting things happening in the parking lot. Like two days ago, I saw a couple who were disputing at each other. Also, some people are confusing about how to pay for their parking tickets. So the parking lots taught me that it's not only for cars to park, but also for those interesting things to happen. I will go to a lot of different parking areas at State College and I hope everyone likes my work. I will find out a lot of interesting things going on at the parking lot.

      For my final project, I will be photographing leaves. I am interesting in photographing it because I love fall and am interested in all of the textures and the composition of leaves.  I will continue to work with this concept for multiple weeks by going to different places and photographing different types of leaves. I will photograph predominately close up, monotone images but will include some color images. At the end of this project, I hope to have a portfolio of close up images that I am proud of and a platform to show off my photography. 

For my final project I decided to focus on the art of street photography. I wanted to catch human beings in their day to day life. The images form a meeting after the photograph is taken. I wanted to focus on candid moments by just photographing with quick shutter speed and finding the meaning behind the images when I viewed them again.

I want to photograph a distort world in my imagination. I will take some pictures of streets, buildings, trees and mountain, and use layers to form a different world in my mind. I am interested in my inner world, because it is easy to lead me to a special path. The work I want to make give me lots of space to discover and I like the feeling of freedom. I will take several shots of the same things and put them together in one photograph. And I will find some different ways to group the images with colors and shapes. I will go to different places to find some senses I want to engage in and make them in the computer. To find the order in the chaos and distort world. Is my highest goal.
