Everywhere I'm going, I am most likely listening to music and thinking of my own choreo to a song. Dance is another way I can express how I feel as well as think freely when it comes to creating new ideas that I can use towards things I encounter. Dancing has been apart of my life since I was three years old and still in present day.

Jazz is a genre of music that was born in the birthplace of New Orleans. Every time I am in New Orleans it inspires me to see all kinds of people express their musician side freely to people without being ashamed of what they do. Jazz is much more than music it has stories behind it.

I question why some people that I encounter do not want to travel the world and see new things. Staying in one place for the rest of my life makes me feel like I haven't met the requirements of living life. Instead of thinking about the struggles of getting to those destinations, just let your capabilities take you far as possible.

People tend to mistaken self-confidence with being selfish and egotistical. What they don't realize is having a strong relationship with yourself creates a realization that you are worth living and being present in the world. Realizing that you are unique and can never be duplicated. Having a weak bond with yourself can create the feeling of self-hate leading to being miserable.

I find Pandas so peaceful and different from other animals. Most of the time they mind their business and mostly just eat bamboo everyday. It's terrible that these animals are losing their natural wildlife homes due to deforestation towards farming as well as the expansion of cities or businesses.

# data[].attributes.body
It's a beautiful sight to see animals in their natural habitat. These visions of animals living life peacefully shouldn't be taken away by human beings just because we are expanding or overpopulating. Rather than taking animal's habitats and life source we should be selfless and avoid harmful actions.

I find this picture so bright and joyful due to the diverse of products found on the shelves of the store. I'm curious if I went to that store in Los Angeles, if it is present in to today's world.

It intrigues me how around the world people are still having difficulty to fulfill the needs of having necessary resources such as food,water, and shelter. Found in the photo, a woman is being taken to a feeding center within a wheel barrow. I feel like people within the United States take things for granted and do not realize how blessed we are to receive the resources we need. Instead we decide to look at each other with acrimony and ignorance, rather than positivity to help others around us and around the world.

I find it amazing that Donna Ferrato was able to capture domestic violence that has occurred towards women through photos. She had the ability to bring these crimes out of the dark and into the light as serious crimes. No women deserves to be treated that way by a man, it is cruel and disrespectful. Women have rights and are human beings who should not be treated or seen as another item to claim within the world.

When it comes to photography, the depth of field is the the amount of focus towards the subject within the photo. Using depth of field also guides the viewer what to exactly pay attention to when observing the picture. The depth of field is controlled by the aperture setting. The aperture is measured is a scale of f-stops. Depending on the size of the aperture varying from being  larger or small, it results in the depth of field being shallow or deep. A shallow depth field means only a few parts of the photo will be focused while, a deep depth of field results in most of the photo being focused.

My collage visually represents me by expressing my passion for  music. I listen to all types of music varying from jazz, hip-hop, and more. My collage also represents that I am a outdoor enthusiast. My favorite season is fall and I always look forward to wearing sweaters and, going on strolls through the comfortable weather. This sadly doesn’t occur in Florida due to it always being hot. My favorite flower is a sunflower because of their symbolism of positivity and bringing joy to someone. I’m intrigued by butterflies due to symbolizing peace and gracefulness. Pandas are also my favorite animal because at first they are seen as sweet and calm animals but, are just as powerful as a normal bear. It fascinates me that they are also known as China’s national treasure.  My College shows that I prefer seafood, vegetables, and fruit over sweet or fast foods. Also when it comes to beverages, I love making homemade smoothies or just having a smoothie from Smoothie King.  In my opinion fast foods only make me feel less energetic and lazy to keep working on things. Although I prefer a healthy diet, I can never say no, to a beignet when I go to New Orleans.

Vincent van Goh is known for his various works of art. It has been found that in most of his painting he made sure, that he added enough of the color yellow so it brought people joy. Although none of these people accepted him because, of him having epilespy. He still cared about their feelings as an human being.

This is another piece of art that belongs to Vincent van Goh. During the 1880's people believed he was posessed by demons due to his diagnosis of epilepsy. Although the way they treated him, felt like he did not have any part in this world. He still wanted to bring hapiness to those who viewed his art out of curiosity.

What I learned while reading the article Introduction to White Balance is, not a lot of photographers use this setting when taking photos. When taking photos, images can give off a cool or warm appearance such as orange,yellow, blue, and etc. This can occur depending on the type of light that is present while taking photos. For example, fluorescent lighting creates a shade of blue within images. Another example, of a type of lighting is incandescent lights. These type of bulbs create a shade of yellow within photos. The eye of a photographer doesn’t realize the change of color or temperature in a setting because, our eyes tend to adjust automatically. When it comes to using White Balance, a camera does not have the ability adjust. Therefore, it is the photographer's responsibility to pick the right setting.

1) Auto setting : The camera makes a guess on a shot using shot basis.

2) Tungsten setting : This setting is symbolized as a light bulb on a camera. This setting is used for indoor shooting and cools down the temperature within a photo.

3) Fluorescent setting : Has a ‘cool’ light of fluorescent light and will warm up photos.

4) Daylight/Sunny setting : This is rarely found on all cameras due, to this setting

being known as ‘normal’ while shooting.

5) Cloudy setting : This setting warms up a photo a bit more than ‘daylight’ mode.

6) Flash setting : The use of a flash on a camera gives off a cool light. While in Flash WB Mode, the flash setting will now warm up the subjects appearance.

7) Shade setting : This setting generally gives off more of a cooler temperature, than shooting in direct sunlight. This mode can warm things up on a small-scale.

1. 1900 : Kodak Brownie Box roll-film camera introduced
2.  1909: Lewis Hine hired by US National Child Labor Committee to photograph children working mills.
3. 1890: Jacob Riis publishes How the Other Half Lives, images of tenament life in New york City

When it comes to the inventions of cameras. It impresses me that photographers, are taking the time to capture real world actions. For example; Jacob Riis captured photos of children working in factories and on mills. This is one problem that occurred in the 19th century, and it still occurs presently. These photos that have been captured are able to be shared around the world, infor people about what is happening around them.

As an African American. Growing up around others who viewed me as different was hard. It took time to finally feel comfortable in my own skin. As an African American Girl, it took time to finally love my hair and appearance. The world has created this image of what beauty is suppose to be, but what the world does not realize is beauty comes in all forms and shapes. Many girls go through this on a daily basis, making their self-esteem low. I want to have the ability to encourage young girls that they're are beautiful and important within society.

I think Adrienne Raquel is influential on Instagram because, she has an inspiring story as well as a goal to give society a fuller spectrum towards colored women. Colored women have not been represented in events leaving their appearance as a colored women to be assumed and influenced by society. Beauty comes in all forms in today’s society, and Adrienne really focuses on expressing this diversity through photography.
