I
think that this trip was a great success. I got to be on my own and
gain independence. I explored my photography experience and skill. I
learned about myself and my photography. I made thousands of
photographs and although I didn't always meet my goal of at least 100
each day I made up for the few days below with some days making up to
600+ photos. My big goal of capturing the essence of the park and
everything that they are made of was not a complete success. I think
that it would take at least a lifetime to really achieve that goal
but I do think that I made a good start and did explore and
photograph a wide range of subjects and environments living and dead,
big and small. Over all I think I learned a lot and grew as a person
and am very glad that Scattergood Friends School enabled this
experience.
I am taking a month long photography trip for my final month of high school. I am driving to Sequoia and Yosemite National Parks in California. I will spend about 10 days at each. I will try to capture the parks from the big to the small in my photographs. I will use this blog to share my thoughts, observations and photographs from the trip. I will also use it to show some of my preparation for my trip. You can visit my website at www.colorlightphotography.com

Wrap-up
For
my 8th block trip
I did a photography trip in Sequoia & Kings Canyon and Yosemite
National Parks. I spent about ten days in each trying to capture the
parks the life and death, the big and the small. I journaled daily
and blogged that and photos online here.
I spent most of my days hiking throughout the parks photographing
with the rest of my time was spent organizing and editing my
photographs. I camped out in the parks and enjoyed the wild
assortment of weather and climates that were provided. With a record
snowfall this past winter I often hiked on snow and the rivers were
massive. It rained, snowed, bloomed, shined, and froze. I was alone
for most of the trip and that caused me to learn about myself and
gave me immense freedom with my schedule and photography.
