Final Project Completed!

The following photos are some of my favorites. This tree was unique looking, it looked like a bunch of drift wood. I placed the nautical gauges there because it just seemed to fit with what I was trying to convey. I added the roses because they too were old and dried like the wood. I thought they were a good touch.
Another photograph of the drift wood memories. I can't really explain but I feel like these photos along with the ones in the crabbing baskets convey my theme the best.

This may not be earth art but I thought I should post it, because it looked so cool. This old rose just lying there on the beach.

I decided to add this photo as well because I liked the set up of the frames with the flame barely visible. Again its like these frames are attempting to capture some memories which are represented by the flame. Just being present at the beach the sand, and everything around it had a memory tied to it.

Wow! I really like how you used the different lighting aspects on the camera to add to the photos. When I look at the work I feel like it is something that Mr. Birchett would be showing us in class.

I think my favorites are the photos with the picture frames. They definitely speak about "memories" and the past. Both photos have really nice compositions also; I like the juxtaposition of the geometric to the natural environment.

The frames are my favorite...I love the use of perspective and how it leads the eye straight to the water.
