Documentation Project

I decided to take pictures of dogs for my documentation project. I went to the park three weekends in a row, and took pictures of as many dogs as I could. It's interesting to see how dogs interact with humans and with each other, and I think these pictures show the diversity of dogs' personalities. Naturally, my dog tried to get in every shot, but I managed to get more than just her!


This is what I call a dog convention. All of the dogs walk in circles and sniff each other, until one decides to jump on another dog. Then they start to play.


This is a six-month-old golden retriever puppy named Emma. She spent most of the time racing around, but in this picture, she's taking a break from playing.


I don't know this dog's name. He or she just sat calmly while I took this picture. His or her fur is so black, it's actually hard to see the eyes!


This is Bobbie. She's quite the sweet dog. Her owner has brought her dogs to the dog park for as long as I can remember.



This is Bobbie's new sister, Shanah. In this picture, she's trying to chew on my friend's hand. Shanah was ten weeks old when this picture was taken. She chewed on my watch band, tried to eat my gloves, and wouldn't stand still for a picture. I really wanted to take her home with me!


The enormous yellow monster in this picture is Cinnamon. My friend was petting the beagle, and Cinn decided that she wanted attention too.


This, of course, is my Cinnamon. She was wondering why I was standing around and taking pictures instead of going for a walk.

Light

Here are four pictures of different lighting conditions.



I finally found a break in the clouds on my way to class in the morning.


A cloudy day on the East Side of Milwaukee.


This is the light in the entrance to my apartment. I like the way the light radiates out, making it look kind of like the sun's rays.


One of my awesome touch lamps, and the shadows in creates on the wall.
