Two things that I learned, Trying to see things from many different angles, ie. holding the camera higher, and lower. Also, trying to get a mix between light and dark, going through trees and trying to capture shadows that are being casted down.
I think that My image could have looked better if there was more blend within the blur and the subject. I thought that the assignment was pretty straight forward and that the video was very helpful.
I think that it did turn out the way I wanted. I think a different object may have been better but you can still see the water moving. I like how still the water fountain and the water is moving. I think if I could do this again I would shoot a different object like a person or water falling from a storm drain or something. I think that this project was pretty straight forward and pretty easy to understand.
