These twelve pictures are my final portfolio. The photos show my participation and my involvement with the Hoban Hockey and also many different aspects of ice hockey. By taking pictures before, during, and after practice and also in games, i am trying to show what it takes to be involved with ice hockey. I have used blur and different effects on my photos to given a defined focal point of every photo.

6. Look through the photo blog American Suburb X and find a photograph that you think is successful. Copy the photo to your computer and post it on your blog. Answer the following questions.
-Why did this photo catch your eye?.... This caught my eye because of the cars in the photo. I am very interested in cars so that's why i was drawn to it.
-Describe what the photo shows and is about. Be as detailed as possible. Imagine you are explaining it to someone that has never seen it........The photo has about 5 cars in it and a bunch of animals that were killed and stuffed are hanging on the walls. There is a man posting up on the car in the middle he has longer hair and a mustache. The photo is in black and white and looks like it was taken to show off the animals or the car.
-Imagine you are one of the objects in the photograph. Describe the scene from your point of view. What happened before the photo? What happened immediately after? What's the temperature? What time of day is it? What smells are present? What is the atmosphere like? Are there noises? Do you feel safe or is there a chance of violence?......... I am the deer in the background before the photo was taken i was roaming the woods and playing hide and seek with my girlfriend deer Nina. That's when i was shot with an arrow and past away. It was about 36 degrees out and midday about 3 o'clock. IT was a pretty clear day and i could only smell smoke from a bon fire at a near by cabin. There wernt many noises and i felt safe but i guess i really wasn't.
