Assessment 3

On one of my walks I had come across a bundled up wooden and wire fence, which I had taken a picture of from the inside view. I thought it would make a nice picture. Later when I loaded it onto my computer I realized it was a great shot and one of my favorites ones.

I had chosen fences for one of my light capturing strategies thinking it would be an easy one, but what I found out was there is actually a lot of beauty in fences. With vines growing on them or the senery in the background or how an angle can best cature the feeling of what a fence can represent. The walk was an eye opener to a new beauty in the world, while we might think of fences as bad things, something that locks us either in or out, turned out to be beautfiul at the same time.

While recording sound I came across the sound of nature (besides the faint sound of traffic). When you are completely quit you can hear nature at its best and hear the beautiful natural sounds it can make. Under the bridge, which was kind of woodsy. I could hear the rusling of leaves, the blowing wind and the sound of animales creeping and running around. It was a beautiful caming experience.
