For the photos above I went downtown Ann Arbor and was looking around for buildings or sculptures that had many dimensions that would be unique to photograph. As I was driving I saw this newly built, modern looking building and it caught my eye immediately. Because it was night time the structure looked like it was glowing. I walked up to the building and took multiple pictures from different angles and picked out my two favorite ones, I love how the staircase is surrounded by glass it made for a really cool picture. These pictures make me feel clean and simple and that is the vibe I am trying to convey.

These next two pictures are of the law building on Michigan's campus, I have always loved this building and thought it would be a really pretty building to photograph. I decided to take the photos at night instead of during the day time just to switch things up and try something new. I walked up to the building and took a picture where you could see the whole building so you could see how grand and big it is. For the next photo I pointed the camera upwards at an angle making sure to capture the stain glassed window. I hope to convey, through these photos, the beauty of the building and the size.

For these two photos I was walking around Michigan's Campus and instantly the building reminded me of something you would see in Harry Potter, it's what I imagine a Hogwarts dorm to look like. I don't even know what the actual building is used for but I took out my phone and got some nice pictures. I took a side angle and angle pointing up so you could see the detail in the building. I love the stone and engraved crests on the pillars, I also find the details around the windows so amazing. This building made me feel comfortable and cozy, like I could be happy living there or going in there.

One of my favorite places to go in the winter is Yost ice arena, I go there every year when it get's cold and you can ice skate. I also go and watch hockey games there and have even dropped a puck for game day before. I drove over there and took some photos of the building which I think has a history that make's it beautiful. I didn't have a hard time capturing different angles which was nice, and I picked out my favorite photos and edited them above. I like these photos a lot because they remind me of memories I have there and will continue to make. |

I was picking up dinner with my dad at a taco place downtown Ann Arbor when I saw this wall of graffiti. I thought the wall was very fun and vibrant and it turned a boring wall into something fun and complex to look at. I struggled with trying to get a good angle because it's a very flat building, and my blueprint didn't turn out exactly how I wanted it but I like how it outlines the shapes portrayed on the wall. To me these pictures convey fun and happiness and bright colors.
