Photography

Seascape

I took this picture while we were on the first history tour. We took at a place where people had dumped various kinds of trash before and as the land eroded away the trash began to fall into the water and the area became dangerous.

I took this picture on the first history tour. During the time we were at the first history tour we learnt about how a tribe of pygmy aboriginals lived there. These Aboriginals worshipped a bird (I cant quite remember what it was called. I think its extinct now). One time a huge warrior from another tribe came and wiped out all of the pygmys. However a giant version of the pygmys tribal bird came and fought and killed the giant in the ocean. After realizing its tribe was dead it rested in the ocean until it was called again. Of course this never happened and so it eventually had stones cover it and it died. The place in the background of the Jetty is supposedly this giant birds head.

I took this picture while on the bike ride. I decided to take this of the lighthouse when i found out that i had accidentaly taken a picture of where we were going next.

This was also taken on the bike ride. I took this picture and found out that we were actually riding to the beach which i had just taken a photo of. I decided to take a picture of the lighthouse we had come from only from the view of the beach we were going to. Thats what the picture above and below this description. Really shows just how far we travelled.

Not much to really explain about this one. I took a photo of what appeared to be two identical islands while i was at the lighthouse on our bike ride.


Landscape
I took all three of the photos below on the morning of one of the runs. I cant remember if it was the 3.4km or the 5.5km or if it was a fitness game. I dont really have that much to say about this but i guess these represents what i try to do with my photography. I try to have both the background and the foreground of the picture work together to express the picture. Personally when i was taking these photos my thoughts on them was that they represented the quote of "every night must end" As expressed by the darkness of the trees in the foreground (representing night to me) and the light behind them being cast by the sun.
