The story to Flow Through the Park

Photography

            My photography assignment was of a park in Galion called East Park. I had chosen this park because this park is the park that my boyfriend, his family, and I take his three year old brother to go play. When we take his brother to the park we see friends and sometimes family. I love going to this park because there is so much you can do there. There is something for everyone like Skateboard Park, Water Park, baseball field, bike track, workout things, and more. I love going to this park because it brings back memories of going to this park and going to my cousin’s birthday parties. I love looking at the trees in the fall because the leaves are so bright and colorful and the trees are starting to become bare. Everything about this park is beautiful. I love the rust on some of the buildings and playground area. It shows character to the park and that it is an old park that still gets new things added in or around it.
            A lot of my photographs are of the playground part of the park. Most of them are close up photos that show all the detail and flow throughout the structures. I think that it is visually more appealing and makes it more interesting. I also want to show the good parts and how interesting a park can be to the eyes. Like something you’ve never seen. Looking at it from a different point of view and closer up.
            I wanted to make my photos into art. I wanted them to be visually arousing and something exiting just like Terry Barrett says. I wanted to make something boring like a park. Editing made my photos look better I believe. I think that it makes the photos more vibrate and more cheerful which is what I love because it makes you want to go to this park. Some of the edited photos make it look like I am trying to advertise for the park. I did not have a particular artist that I referenced for my photos.
