Happy Accidents


You know what's really great?  When you make some sort of mistake and realize it ended up making your work even better.  This photograph wasn't exactly that, but basically.  I took the photo of a cool building lit up at night.  However, the photo was really boring.  After loading it on my computer, I realized someone was running alongside the fountain.  I thought it was perfect, so I cropped it to focus just on the person.  After some editing, this was the final result.

This photograph was taken in New York City.  I think it looks very european, which is interesting.

New York City Twist

Last weekend I went on a trip to New York City.  It was really fun just looking around with the perspective of an artist.  Although I think cities are really exciting, I'm from a small town and I can often see them as chaotic and stressful.  I decided to play around with one of the photographs that I took and try to make the viewer see the city through my eyes.
