by Luke Nelson 9/16/2020 For several months I had been seeing what other photographers could do with a slow shutter speed, and I wanted to try my hand at it. Then, one day, as I was scrolling through WordPress, I found a page by a photographer who was journaling her learning experience, and one ofContinue reading “Ghosts”

The Magazine Collection
Luke Nelson After seeing the “Vogue Challenge” circulate on social media, I wanted to try it out for myself. I did about a two hour-long photo session with my little brother, who did various actions like stand or lie down in the sprinklers, go on our trampoline, and play with the hose. I sorted throughContinue reading “The Magazine Collection”
The Dark of the Moon

But as I was completing the assignment, I started just taking photos of the candle for fun and got some really cool pictures. You mayContinue reading “The Candle Collection”
A Lone Gas Station
These two photos were taken at a gas station en route to Mammoth Mountain. The lighting outside was perfect, as it was at the time of day known as “blue hour” where lights make a beautiful contrast and mix with the dark blue sky.
The Red Collection
This is a series of photos I took at a little diner near my house that had an interesting, vivid red coat. I wanted my subject to be wearing color that contrasted heavily with the red paint, so a yellow shirt was perfect. By coincidence, the yellow shirt also created a cool reflection off theContinue reading “The Red Collection”
