My practice drastically changed once going into quarantine. I found it very difficult to have any motivation once being home all the time. This is especially because I was mainly photographing people. I was no longer able to photograph people in the same way, and ended up mainly photographing my brother in different metroparks in the Toledo area. This proved to be a challenge as I could no longer shoot on film either, and my dslr stopped working a week into quarantine. This led to most of my photos being phone pics. With these limitations I tried to play off of weird projects I already had been doing. My photos for mom series are literal phone pictures I have always taken for my mom of my brother and I doing weird things in parks. This also drew off of my idea to make eye-spy type pictures of my brother and I hiding in the trees. The last of my film photos are also stuck as edited TIFFs. I was unable to download photoshop as my laptop has no storage, and the files were too big for...










I cannot BELIEVE you got these photos of a deer so close. Normally when I see a deer, the photos I take are blurry and out of focus because I'm fumbling around with my camera rushing to take the picture. The last photo looks like the deer is chomping down on some of that bird seed, looks like it's "mid-chew". Definitely one of the more "fun" posts I've seen on the blog!
ReplyDeleteIvy, oh my goodness HOW CUTE, these are so so sweet!! I'm thinking the same thing as Ryan, how you got great photos of them so close! I have never seen photos like these before of deer and I'm so grateful you got pictures of them and posted them! I really like the one of the deer with bird seed in its mouth as well, how adorable! I have also never seen a picture like the one with the deer looking in your window at your dog how cool is that! The framing of your photos is great, the exposure, and the sharpness as well as the composition, these are so sweet!
