Sometimes a photograph is interesting to look at, but I wonder why anyone decided to take it.  I mean, who would have thought that this basketball hoop was a worthy photograph to take. I’ll tell you who, Miguel Angel thought it was interesting enough and even worthy enough to be selected photo of the day out so many great photographs. His project was to photograph wooden things and in the past one of his projects was geometric shapes. I found that even though there is a language barrier in teaching the kids they still understand the idea of the project and even more importantly, the element of composition I’m really trying to teach (even though they might not realize it). As the kids shoot new projects they continue to incorporate old projects in to the new projects. As you can see here, there are many squares in this photograph (a past project was geometric shapes), the basketball hoop, the bricks and the windows but his project in this photo was to shoot wooden things. To see the kids using everything they have learned and apply them to new projects only makes me more excited for future classes.
