A Weirdest Day On Argyle Street
These pictures I took on Argyle Street, on Monday November 9th. It was a lovely day to go out and interview people for the speech project. I had an amazing day with my group. First, when we arrived to the street we went to a restaurant to have something to eat. At the restaurant we had a soup that was very delusions. After we ate, we went to interview people. I like that street. There are many cafes, restaurants on that street. On this street it was hard to find people for the interview, everyone was late for work or they hadn’t had time. I had an idea to find a park, because people in the park people always have time to talk. And we went to a park that was on this street. It was dog part, everyone there had a dog, and we interviewed 4 people

    This photograph has two main purposes: to commemorate a loved man who was murdered and to point out the injustice of his murder. There is a painting of this man with clouds behind him signifying he was a great man who is now in a better place, however, the man is covered in red and there is a large amount of red underneath him on the curb representing the bloodshed of his unfair death. Right in the center of this photograph written very largely across the wall of the building is the phrase, "When you take someone's life, you forfeit your own." There are also flowers that people have placed in the surrounding area, somewhat like a grave site. These things represent the people's opinion about this man and the killing.…

    For this project, I decided to go to San Juan Capistrano to do my observation. San Juan Capistrano is a small town located in Orange County, two hour north of where I live. It’s also my boyfriend Colin’s hometown. Going to San Juan was a random and hasty decision because I didn’t have any real connection to or interest in the town and, in fact, I hadn’t even known that it existed two months ago. Colin convinced me that San Juan would be perfect to write about because I would get to see things that I didn’t normally see in Los Angeles. I trusted him, so we agreed that I would tag along the next morning when he would be driving home for Mother’s Day weekend.…

    The sun shone vibrantly through the trees and I loved the way it complemented the gold leaves. I started to notice the incline to the top of the hill, it was steady unlike the Adirondacks where you go up and down. When I got to the top I saw a spectacular view of the surrounding neighborhoods and way in the distance I saw the buildings of Rochester. As I stood there I admired the pure beauty that lies so close to home. It is hard to believe that a wilderness like this one could be surrounded by suburban neighborhoods. Being higher up and in an open space I could really appreciate the mixture of golds, oranges and yellows it was different than being on regular ground level. I thought to myself ‘’I should do this more often, it’s peaceful and healthy.’’ I felt a certain peace with in me while I’m in the woods, suddenly my phone vibration broke my train of thought. It was my stepmom texting me to see if everything was okay, I replied yes and I’d be back at the trailhead in a short time. The leaves snapped and cracked under my feet on the way back and the crisp fall air made the not yet fallen leaves dance in the trees, it was getting later in the day. I was three quarters through the loop so I was still fine,I wasn’t…

    As I’m walking on the side walk looking at this calm and peaceful neighborhood I’m falling in love with all the beautiful trees and the serenity of the environment. As I come closer to the Menil I notice how tall it is for a one story building. It’s a simple building but the treasures inside awaits my curious eyes and soul of the arts. I notice the brass inlays and the unique designs upon the green lawn, I so wished there was water to fill it to get another prospective on the art but I continue on my way in.…

    In the essay “Reading a Photograph” by Cheryl Aaron, is a short story about how taking photos enables her to take a better look at her subjects. Apparently her current series of photos are related to cafes. Aaron describes how she makes contact with the owners of the cafes that she would like to visit, and obtains their permission prior to her showing up and taking photos. This particular photo of Pellicci’s café, Aaron illustrates her emotions of warmth, as she relates to the reader that she signifies the café as almost a home away from home. Comparing the ambience to the diners that she patronized as a child. Aaron details her visit, giving details about where she sat, along with what type of camera she utilized to take the photo. Aaron, again reverts to talking directly to the reader about the interior and the food, “I hope the audience picks up on the ambiance of this splendid place.

    For this film, I chose to have a narrative about my neighbor walking her dog. On her walks, she stops by her friend’s house to have her dog play with her friend’s dogs, and to unwind from a long workday. For this assignment, I tried to emulate the style of Flaherty in Nanook of the North. To add reflexivity to the film, I purposefully used a clip in which I am visible, filming the…

    Abandoned buildings tell a story behind the boarded up doors and windows, that are so easily forgotten in our ever-changing city. Recently, I have been working on a documentary photography series to bring these stories back to life. In Toronto, we are trapped following the same guided streets, with no way to escape our everyday routine. Urban exploration creates a new untold narrative of this city, as we venture into these man-made structures. It encourages people to create their own adventures by appreciating our cities forbidden spaces. These structures can be invisible in plain sight, in the middle of our city or in the quiet suburbs. They're isolated from the "normal" world, places that the average person would never think twice about,…

    Since we had nothing more suitable to do, we decided to go. Just as all of us were about to leave, another close friend stopped by my house and wanted to know. If we would care to go to the Broadmoor Hotel in Colorado Springs, a city north of Pueblo, to go swimming. We choose that as a more desirable alternative than a picnic. We got back home from the Broadmoor swim outing around 3:00 p.m. on that Sunday afternoon. When we turned on my street, I observed many cars parked on both sides of the road, curious, because I was not aware of any events at my house that…

    One day where the sun was shining, with perfect weather during the Summer, my parents had decided on this day, that we were going downtown to go to the Sea Life Aquarium in Crown Center. After about 15 minutes, we had arrived at our destination. After we had gotten out of our dirty, blue car, we went inside and went to pay for our tickets. When we got our tickets, the worker showed us where to go, and when she opened the door, I noticed a lot of people surrounding the different types of sections. There was also this activity where every station we went to, we had to stamp it in our booklets. It had pictures depending on what area we are arriving in.…

    It’s not everyday when the sky was a dark black color and the clouds resembled those in Seattle. It wasn't an average bright sunny day in El Paso, And on this day i didn't realize it was going to change my whole perspective on life. On this beautiful Saturday evening i was hanging out with one of my friend named Fernando who i had never met before and had only met earlier this day . He pulled up in his two seater 2010 Crystler -that was black- as he came out of the car he was a five feet eleven inches with dark brown, hair medium skin color ,and dark eyes that reminded me of the night skies. He was a cold hearted person who would rarely let people in, but surprising in that moment he had glowed with radiance and positivity to meet…

    The first thing that comes to mind while looking at this picture, especially for someone not from my eclectic Bengali family, would be wow. The amalgam of colors, faces and personalities may be overwhelming to look at for some but for me, the beauty lies within the chaos. All the family members are situated side-by-side in a long line atop a short wall of bricks. Though the group is predominantly under the cool shade provided by nearby trees and shrubs, rays of sunlight penetrate through a few sparse leaves and reflect off a few faces and bodies. The camera is about twenty feet away from our family and yet each personality is clearly prominent. I could see my dad’s playful behavior as he tries to cover my cousin’s face with his baseball cap; my grandmother’s old Bollywood flair is depicted in her not looking straight at the camera but at the fountain to her right; my cousin’s grouchy attitude is shown in his scowl; and my mother’s inherent desire to look as thin as she did in her teen years is apparent in her curve conscious pose. But focusing on the entire picture rather than a single person reveals that the entire group, regardless of their situation, was simply happy at that moment in time. The bold smiles, sparkling eyes and lighthearted ambience fall nothing short of joy and delight.…

    Being the only son of the family, I was always at the center of attention. My uncle, Aziz, 6 years older than me, used to live with us while he was attending college. From 2001-2004, these four years he was my best friend, partner in crimes. He always thought of him as my elder brother not my uncle. He played a very important role to help me become the person I am today. Soccer is his life and so is mine. During weekdays at 3:30pm he used to go to the park for practice. He played as the Right wing for a local club called ‘Abahoni Football Club’. I used to be the one carrying his duffle bag as I used to go with him all the time. Soccer and my uncle Aziz isn’t the only two things that come to my mind when I think of Bipin Park, there is more. Brahmaputra River, Sarinda Café, 17 small tea stalls, many street food vendors and snack shops, boats will colorful sail on the river, the homeless artist ‘Jamal’ and etc. all these elements give character to this park. May be I am writing about Bipin Park as my most pleasant place because a whole lots of good memories had been made in this place but I disagree to admit so. I mean it could be a very good reason but that’s not the main reason for me to choose this as the most pleasant place.…
