Proposal

For my project I want to take pictures of the shoes people wear. I want to take low angle shots. I want the pictures to look as if it's a photo shoot for shoes. I will shoot  a variation of shoes that I see such as dirty shoes, stylish shoes, feminine and male shoes, cheap shoes, etc. 

Dreezy's 10 Photos - Assignment 5

Okay here is my project proposal along with photos of Apalach:

I’m aiming to take photos of my hometown in the Historic Apalachicola Florida. It is very small; in our entire county the graduating class was 55 students. I want to take the viewer on the intimate journey in Apalach. Kind of like when you are on a tour any you never remember the tour guide, you only remember the amazing view. Most of the images, I don't want to be to personal involving me. I want it to be just the viewer and the town. I want to show them a little bit of everything; nature, historic buildings, and most importantly the community that I grew up in that is beautifully rustic. Instead of considering this a proposal I would rather consider it a creative poetic flow. Here is my perspective that can give you a visual before you look at the photos, take a second and read it to yourself and envision yourself on this intimate journey:

Ocean waves and birds chirping,

It’s just another beautiful day in Apalachicola, Florida.

The sun brightening our town.

The water flowing up the river.

Right on the edge of the state, on the panhandle.

The tourist pay to come here

But the best part of our area is free.

I’m talking about the nature.

The land, water, and animals.

We don’t have a backyard,

We have a water front.

The long stretch of water is the Apalachicola Bay.

There is no McDonalds, no Walmart

And the closest mall is 2 hours away.

We only have one traffic light.

We run off the nature,

We live off the water.

We’re known for our seafood, nature, and history.

They call us the oyster town.

The best scenes in town are right outside our door.

The history is everywhere you turn.

Tear down old houses, no.

We don’t want to do that.

We could never do that.

We want to save our past.

We need to save our past

Tradition is what we thirst for.

We don’t have much.

                                                    

But we love every single thing we have.

From the old oyster shells

to the rusty historical artifact.

Our town is unique.

It’s peaceful

It’s perfect

It’s Apalachicola.
