Final Media Arts statement

Capturing the perfect photo is like perfecting a move in sports. It's impossible. All we can do is try to get as close to achieving that goal as possible. Even though we will never reach it. I have never come near to that goal but I know people who have. They have come so close without ever touching it. We strive and strive to be the best but always come up short.

I have gained much in the time i have been in this class. I have learned how to make a great composition and to not press the shutter until I have the picture I want. Or to press it repeatedly hoping to get the shot. I learned to Use photoshop tools and to download fonts. I have learned about the paint bucket tool, the blur tool, the font tool and many others. They have been very useful in helping me achieve my work in this class.

When I take a shot, there are a few things I think to myself before I snap the shutter. This includes will this being interesting to some other person, how will I edit this picture to make it one of my best, and lastly do i have the right shot? Would this look better from another angle? Maybe. But I take the shot anyway. I will never get my perfect shot, but I can sure try.
