Last thursday my mom and I started a photography class with a local photographer, the teacher works mostly in various forms of black and white film photography. The first assignment we have is to photograph in black and white as much as we can in a week and bring in 2 to 5 photos to the next class. I went to Point Reyes to photograph 3 times in the last 4 days, I have posted each picture with a short description as a seperate blog post for technicle reasons, the captions to are just basic and mostly for technicalities. Please tell me what you think.

enjoy,

This is the panorama that I love, and one of the only colored shots I took this weekend.The dark spots on the horizon are rain storms over the ocean.


This was taken out of my car window at Pierce point. There was a heard of mostly female tule elk and this one was the closest I had to wait for her to lift her head in order to take this shot.


This is a silhouette of the Point Reyes lighthouse at sunset.


Sunset veiw during a light rain storm from the outlook at the Point Reyes lighthouse.


I just plain like this photo.


I like this photo because the egret sticks out, yet you can still see some of the details of where he was.


This boat has been in this spot for a long time. Depending on the tide you can see more or less of it, we were driving by and the tide was out and you could see the whole thing, so we stopped and I took this photo.


I just thought this was a picturesque scene. Taken in Inverness.


I love the way the rain looks in the water in this picture, and how it ripples the reflection of the egret. Taken in Inverness.


If you look closely at this picture you can see the rain drops in the background. This picture was taken in Point Reyes on the drive home from chimney rock.


This turkey vulture was sitting on a post in front of a whole field of thistles. I liked how it looked and was able to get this shot when he flew off.
