Assignment 7, Composition
Flag Before
Tractor Before
City Hall Annex Before
Although this is a beautiful shot of the building, I wanted to focus more on the water fountain.
Water Fountain at City Hall Annex. I flipped the camera on the vertical and came in closer for the shot of the fountain. This way you are also able to see the beautiful sculptures on the facia.
Above: Tractor Before
Below: Tractor After
I really love how the field pops in these pics. Another reminiscent shot of West Weber. I thought the dust plume behind the tractor was pretty cool!

More Pics from our trip up to Frye Mesa Dam
Waterfall that fills Frye Mesa Dam
Reflection of the sky in the reservoir. If you look closely you can see the ripples from where the fish were jumping. This place is a fishermans dream! Just ask my brother!
Family pic from the top of the Mesa. This overlooks Pima to the left, Thatcher in the center, and Safford to the right. I used the timer on my camera to shoot this pic, and it was quite interesting to get the picture set, push the button, and scramble my way up on the boulder to get into the pic before the camera went off....I was also trying to get the girls to smile at the camera and not look at me, thus, the open mouth expression.
Looking back at the road up to Frye Mesa. We were only about 1/2 way up at this point.
The long road up to Frye Mesa. I loved the simplicity of this shot. This was the beginning of the road before we hit the twists and turns.
Another pic of the spillway up at Frye Mesa. Jared was holding onto the back of my pants to keep me from falling off the cliff edge. But, I'd say the pic was worth it!
Assignment 6 - White Balance
Jay and Ainslee at Mesa Dam Before: Daylight White Balance
Jay and Ainslee at Mesa Dam After: Cloudy White Balance
Again, I wanted to show the warm colors of the mountainside, by changing the wb to cloudy I was able to do that.
The following pics are the ones I also considered submitting for this assignment, but didn't. All pics I submitted were taken during our day trip to Mesa Dam....a beautiful dam up on top of a Mesa in the middle of nowhere! We took the girls up, went for a short hike, and I of course got a ton of pictures! In fact, I may submit more miscellaneous just from that trip, I took over 100 pics while we were up there! Isn't digital film wonderful!
