The photographer I chose to study was Eliot Porter. Eliot is
known for his photos of nature. He has traveled all over the world to places
such as Galapagos, Antarctica, Africa, The Appalachians, and Egypt. Eliot’s
Photography portfolio is published on the Carter Museum website. While looking through
Eliot’s photos, one stood out to me. It was a picture of the sky and the
clouds. This picture stood out to me because it was so simple, yet so beautiful.
To imitate this picture I started out with checking the weather for the week. I
had to find a day with nice weather to take this picture and with the weather
this past week being so unpredictable, it was hard to find a good day. Once the
weather was nice I had to find an open spot to take the picture. I ended up
taking this picture outside of my dorm. I used my phone to take the picture,
and it is unedited.
