Description:
My image was captured on a field trip to Canon Headquarters. My image relates to the participation aspect because I didn't really like taking photos at the time. My father is a professional photographer and he really wanted me to join the Photography class at my school. I joined for him, even though I don't want to follow in his footsteps. Yet, on this day at Canon HQ, I had access to tons of amazing equipment, and this was the first day I truly participated. I took tons of photos and I liked doing so. I think I participated because to me, participation means that you are fully involved. It means that you are interested and you put your heart into what you're doing. It means that you are involved. That is what participation means to me. I was involved and active on this day. I actually took a passion in what my father had been trying to get me to do for years. I am not the greatest student in my photography class but I feel that I can be myself in the class. Whether I'm in a good or bad attitude. No matter what kind of day I'm having. I took this image of another student in my class named Johnny because he was one of my only friends in the class. I thought that it would be great to capture what the subject's point of view was like. This is because I feel that you are participating when you're the photographer and when you're the subject. I captured the photo on one of the Canon DSLRs that were provided to the students. This image represents just some of the images I captured on that day.
