I chose to do this story because the story itself was small and personal. My story documented a friend and I’s road trip down to San Diego this weekend. The story was personal to me because it showed something that a friend and I did. It was also a small story because it was just my friend and me.
I think I did pretty well at capturing everything that went on during the road trip. The trip itself was not very long and I decided to photograph the important parts. The pictures themselves are not the best, but they show what I want them too.
I think all the pictures are kind of equal and they all look sort of the same. My friend is featured in almost all the pictures with just a couple not featuring a person. My favorite is probably the picture where we stopped for bagels, because it reminds me of how good the bagels were.
I don’t really think any of my images are great, but they all help contribute to the story. One that I’m not very fond of is the picture of us getting on the freeway. I just think that the picture is kind of boring, because it does not feature anyone in the picture, but it does help to add to the story so I left it in.
Next time I would try to capture better pictures. The pictures that I captured do not have a lot of variety, because we were driving in a car to San Diego the whole time. So next time I would try to have more variety in my pictures that still add to the story.
It was a little difficult for me to pick a photo story to tell. If my friend and I didn’t make a trip to San Diego this weekend it would have been a lot harder for me to decide on a story to tell. With that in mind I don’t have another story I would want to tell, because I can not think of another one.
