what angle is that?

So, I feel as if I cheated a bit this weekend with my creative shots. I had a wedding to photograph, as well as some engagement pics and senior pics so I tried to squeak in the different angles for this assignment into those shots. I find that my camera still owns me though, and am excited about being able to finally manipulate (sooner rather than later) my camera into doing what I want without the editing afterwards.

Kohler Arts Center

I went to the Kohler Arts Center this weekend to see the "Sense of Humor" exhibit. I'll leave my thoughts and journaling for my response paper, but I did want to share some pictures....




These images are from the woman's bathroom (and one of the only "exhibits" in which photography is allowed). "The Women's Room" by Cynthia Consentino is on the surface nostaglic of childhood, as represented by the feminine themese, fantasy characters, and paper dolls, and imaginative dressup. At second glance, you see images of animals in clothing as well as accessories that challenge the very notion of identity as represented by clothing and society. No doubt you'll leave the bathroom thinking and with a bit of a smile.
