The first assignment in my Photography class was to capture an interesting shot of a vehicle. We were not allowed to use full auto or flash. Since I didn't even know how to work my camera, I felt a little behind as soon as class ended.
I had a little trouble coming up with an idea of what would be an interesting shot of a vehicle. On Sunday, I drove out toward Roland trying to find something. I found a tractor but didn't take any shots. Instead, I decided to go out to the Mercedes dealership and took a couple of shots there, but didn't really care for any of them. They weren't very interesting.
Brad suggested I take some shots of a helicopter out in front of the VFW by our house. I tried that and got one I turned in for the assignment.
After work on Monday, I decided to drive back out to Roland (I think it was actually Natural Steps) to get a photo of that tractor. I liked the shots I got of it, but I didn't use it for class.
If you look close at this one, they have landscaping lights stuck all over and around the tractor!!
On my way out to the tractor the second time, I spotted an old blue truck at an abandoned building. I got a few shots of the truck, but I had to be quick because the area was a little questionable, in my opinion.
When I pulled up to the truck I thought I had hit the jackpot because there was an old red bicycle on top of a pile of junk next to the building! I liked those shots a lot and turned this one in for my assignment.
Brad didn't care for the bicycle shots and I don't think my friend Dawn liked them very much either. Maybe I'm just a sucker for red bicycles....even if they're on top of a heap of junk!
A few more that I liked....
All of these photos were taken in Landscape mode.
