Pump in the Dump

Emily E.

  • Whenever I go to take photos I always come prepared. There is a physical way of coming prepared and a mental way of coming prepared. The physical way is a charged battery, lenses you want to use, and the basic camera equipment. The mental way of coming prepared is being open-minded and trying as many things as you can. You also have to think about how the image makes you feel when you are taking it. In the photo I selected, I chose to take a photo of the pumpkin in a puddle because it has a comedic sadness to it. I feel like the leaves around the pumpkin help make the background more interesting and add more of a fall vibe to the photo. My favorite part of the photo is the pumpkin’s face. It looks so sad, it feels like the day after Halloween and no one wanted it anymore. Also, the puddle just makes the feeling so much more.

  • Creativity to me means freedom from society's norm and a way to show who you are and express yourself. Creativity can come in many forms from similar everyday thing to big meaningful things. Creativity can be the way you dress to the photos you take.
