This week's assignment was "childhood memories" and since I'm mostly all grown up now, I think it wouldn't work if i was in the shots, so i thought of using one of my neighbor kids because there are so many. So I called my one neighbor up and asked her if I could use her son (CJ) for a digital photography assignment and she said "sure, you can even take him home with you. lol" My childhood basically was the same thing I do now, play sports with my friends, play video games, and just enjoy being a kid.
I like this picture a lot because of the low angle, and the light/shadows. When I was a child I always imagined dunking like Michael Jordan or making the game winning buzzer shot, as I every other kid did, and I believe this shot captures that feeling exactly.
Another activity I did (and still do) is imagine I was in an awesome, kick-butt band. I remember me and my friends would just go to my room and listen to music and remember air-guitaring it, or grab a broom and just act like we were rocking out. This picture i think is a nice portrait because you can see the joy of the kid's face that he has playing guitar.
In today's day and age, you cannot go into a young kid's house and not see a toy gun. I had one, and I always remembered shooting the dog, my parents, my sister (many times) and just having a good time destroying a couple aliens here or there. Basically I just shot everything in sight that moved, and that is what this picture shows. I like the sepia affect, and how I contrasted the shadow greatly, and I think it turned out very well.
