Hello again. As I mentioned in my previous post, today I will share some of the photographs I took while I was in San Diego, CA.
This first picture is something I would love to see printed on a really large canvas. Maybe one day I can start making prints of all my photos to see all the detail in them and have a hard copy, even give some away. Finance will be a limiting factor for the moment.
Walking around Mission Beach placed me in this angle of life guards doing their re-qualifications for the upcoming summer. For this image I edited the excess of sky that did not context to this composition.
The next photo includes my favorite subject. People! People will always be a main focus of mine. Everywhere around the world all people have their own essence that brings out the area they live in.
This is my example of people in the city streets of Chula Vista – San Diego. The gentleman was snack vendor who ventured into an area that wasn’t really too occupied. I did not have to crop this image in post production. I was happy with the composition when I took the photograph.
Textures are really fun. As I was walking around I noticed a gift bag next to a Lincoln car. The reflection off the of tire rim was something that really caught my eye and did not pass up. Something about this was very pleasing to me. While I was editing the photograph I noticed that I took too much of the picture. I had the tires in the view as well as the bag but what I really wanted to capture was only the texture off of the rim.
These were the three images I wanted to share from San Diego. Three completely different styles of photographs but equally intriguing to me. I may post a few more on my Instagram page. I will also include some of my editing techniques from now on. Something that I get asked when I show my photos to friends.
Until then.
Enjoy!
