For The Past 3 Weeks…
My life has been overwhelming busy and stressful lately, so that’s why I haven’t been updating. I have decided to update now because tomorrow’s my 21st birthday, and I will be celebrating it. I am positive that some (alcoholic) drinks will be involved since 21 is the legal age to drink in the states, but I am definitely not going to be wasted. And for most people who know me, I don’t really drink. But anyway, here is a long overdue update.
For the first week and a half, southern California mountains were on fire all over. The air quality wasn’t good at all. You can see ashes, and you can smell the air quality being worse than it usually is. The fires definitely made the sun glow in a red-orange color during sunset, and it felt really surreal at times.
I went to the photojournalism lab on one Wednesday to test out the studio lighting there since I figured it would be good to learn, especially since it is all what my ART455A Advertising Photography class is about. Studio lighting is tough work with setting up the lights and everything. I still don’t really know how to work it well, to tell you the truth. Paul helped out a lot, and we first tried out this toy car that he brought. This was my favorite shot out of all.
