Scavenger Hunt

Terminal By Esther Michelle Photography

Dead End, Canyon Country, Cali.

I started a photography class at College Of the Canyons this semester and one of the assignment was called 'Scavenger Hunt'. The assignment was to take pictures that not only conveyed theses words three, timid, twist, tinsel,tow, tower, terminal, texture, trek, and tiger but that conveyed a concept or emotion that was beyond merely the definition of the word. The pictures all had to be using a camera on Manual[shutter-speed, aperture, and ISO] not using the flash, and had to be outdoors. There were other requirements too, but were a lot more detailed and more of using different techniques than anything else.
Anyways this is one of the ones I got, it's for the word Terminal. I think it portrays 'terminal' 'cause when you hear you have a terminal illness, it's like all you're faced with is a dead end and no one can help you. That's why chose to do it in black and white, because it's the loss of color along with everything else this girl is loosing.
I decided to post it here, and the rest of them are on Flickr.
Check them out. :]
Hope you enjoy.
