Journal 15

Yesterday I was supposed to have a softball game, but it was raining and thundering so we had to go into our shed that we have. My whole team was sitting around in a circle, and we were playing different games together. I would have loved to have taken this picture, and used it for an "in the style of" for my photographer, Walter Iooss. Iooss takes pictures of athletes in action, but also focuses on the down time of athletes, and the connections between teammates. I would have taken this picture from the back of the shed, so that way I could get all of my teammates, but also would show the rainy and gloomy sky. I would have maybe tried doing a black and white with color, and just kept the purples because all of us had our purple uniforms on. I would have used a fast shutter speed to freeze the emotion on peoples faces, but I might not be able to use a fast shutter speed because it was dark, so I'm not sure if there would be enough light. I really wish I got this picture, but hopefully I'll be able to get similar pictures some other time.

  1. I love that you are thinking about your photographer. I think that the black and white with color would have made the picture pop.

  2. I think this would have been a really good opportunity to shoot in the style of your photographer. It is too bad that you didn't get the chance. I think it was a really good idea to just leave the color of the uniforms.
