London Summer - Entry 5

Hello Everyone,

We have made it halfway through week 3, the final week of our study abroad trip. We have gotten to explore so many great places this week like Oxford, Loosely Gardens, and Tate Modern. While in Oxford, we got to see a play based off the book "The Ocean at The End of the Lane." It was so different than the other plays we've seen so far, and I loved it. The story was engaging and unique, I loved the ending, even though it was sad. 

Here are some possible portfolio options!

London Eye - 06/20/2023 
This was taken during our night photography class, and I love the vibrant colors of the Eye, and I like how the trees look over the colors. 

St Paul Cathedral - 06/20/2023
While we were walking towards Tate Modern, I got the chance to take this shot of the statue in front of the Cathedral. I like this angle because it looks like the statue is pointing at the viewer and the clock can be seen in the background. 

Loosely Gardens - 06/19/2023
I have been experimenting with shutter speeds and I thought this fountain would be a good opportunity to try and capture the water flowing down. I like how it captured the ripples in the water and the drops that fall from the fountain, 

Loosely Garden - 06/19/2023
I like this photo because of the vibrant green trees which go over the entry way into the garden. It looks really calm and welcoming because the door is opened and you can see into the lovely garden. 

Loosely Garden - 06/19/2023
Another photo of a door I found while exploring the Gardens, I like this one because of the style of the house. I love the brick work on the house and the vines growing on it make it look unique. 

Here are my "Best Of" Pictures

London Eye - 06/20/2023
Taken during my time enjoying the afternoon weather, the sky was so beautiful and blue in this photo, and I love the bright green trees. I like how you seen the London Eye above the tree.

Loosely Garden - 06/19/2023
I like this photo because of all the plants of all different colors. You can see there's a path between the trees and I like how blue the sky is in this photo. 


That's all for today, but I have 1 more entry for my Study abroad trip coming soon!

    Cordelia, you have lots of portfolio worthy pictures in this post! I love the perspective and angle in the shot of St. Pauls. I also love how you've captured the light reflecting off the London Eye. I can't wait to see what you end up choosing to include in your final portfolio!

London Summer - Entry 1

Hello Everyone, I have officially been in London for 4 days and it has been unreal. We got the opportunity to explore the Tower of London, Brunswick Centre, the British Museum, and a theatre on the west end along with so many other amazing attractions. My personal favorite would have to be the time I spent at the Tower of London. The Beefeater who guided our tour was hilarious and a great storyteller and I loved learning about the history of the tower. Below are some of my favorite photos that I got to take during my travels.  Street art tour - Graffiti Tunnel - 06/05/2023 I wanted to capture an angle where the tunnel follows a line into the light.  Spitalfields Market - 06/05/2023 This was taken during our time exploring Spitalfields Market. I like this image as it implements the concept of using lines to lead the eyes down the street.  Along the River Thames - 06/05/2023 Exploring the attractions along the river Thames such as Big Ben and the London Eye was surreal. I captured this

 Hello Everyone, We have officially made it through week 2 of study abroad, one more to go! This week flew by, we got to explore the Kew Gardens, House of Dreams, and Blenheim Palace among so many other great locations. We also got to see the Circus which was such a treat as I haven't been to the circus in a long time. Here are some photo choices for my final portfolio.  Neal's Yard - 06/13/2023 Taken during our time in Neal's Yard. I love the vibrant colors of the building and flowers.  Blenheim Palace - 06/17/2023 This was taken while experimenting with Manual Mode. I like how it captures the water shotting up from the fountain. The colors of the Palace are beautiful behind the gardens.  Streets of Cotswolds - 06/17/2023 This was taken during our walk through the Cotswolds. I loved seeing all the gorgeous flowers. Among the different types were these Lavenders. I love this picture because of the vibrant Purple color and how the flowers fill the frame.  Royal Pavillion - 0
