Description

Well, when you have a trip that you have to spend most of your time in your car, I bet we should do something to get away from the boredom and the neck – ache, something like…taking photos.

Taking photos through car is not something easy and flexible. First, the window is not that clean, then the view is not always in a proper “angle”, and you must be…quick, really really quick, your hands must be stable so not to take the photo up side down if you bump your head to the car’s platform as the driver has an over – excited brake!

But sometimes, the motion might bring in some great moments if you really know how to catch it. There’s one thing I do not like about taking photos through the car’s window, non of the above reasons concerned, it is that I am…car sick.

Imagine you are having a party in your stomach, your head is in a puzzle, and your camera is just around…10 pounds, well, how are you gonna party anyway?

But then I have to, hey, it is my purpose to be a photographer, so I must get used to it, I must train myself to take photos through the window while I am…car sick. I also feel it is a waste of time and…the beauty if just sit and think of the throw- up!

I have been effectively improved. Thanks to the self – training!

Talking about the following photos, there’s something quite interesting I want to say about them, they are partly results from the photography class I have taken!

But I’ll talk about it later! Just wait, I will tell you!

Feel like I started to take photos like...the American, haha!!!

I love the way the electrical robes are well parallel organized.

Love the colors and the structures of the houses combining with the blue sky

The red is originally...blue, but I changed it, and I love this combination of colors, shapes and light!

Something really matches my...signature!

When ONLY is all the ways...

Love the colors, and the drawings.

I had to admit, if I had not gone to class, I would never pay attention to this type of photo. Now I agree they are interesting!

Just a quick shot through the window, the dawn was on it's way, and look how "little" they are, from a far distance.

My favorite of all, isn't it an eagle?

To be continued, next will be the cherry trees, the White House and…me!!!
