Digital Imaging 381

I chose to photograph the beach for "The Built Environment" project. Every time I go to the beach I'm overwhelmed by it's mass and beauty. After looking back at my photographs I find it almost comical how small to scale humans are when directly compared to nature. Humans taint nature by turning it into an industrialized money-maker.

For my landscape photo series I chose to shoot Bayshore. I wanted to capture a place that was symbolic to Tampa and myself. I have spent countless hours along the (what seems to be) never-ending sidewalk. Through my series I wanted to relay the colorful, gentle, beauty Bayshore is through the lens of a camera. I find myself biking or running along Bayshore at least once a week. Every time there are different strokes of color painted up in the sky, and down below there are a different rhythm of waves. I wanted to capture Bayshore's colorful beauty.
