Photo Process in Print

At last iv created my final prints for this class, iv used the idea of creating the final senior show poster and created these beautiful images of transformations, from a baby to an adult, a baby robin to an adult robin and a caterpillar turning into a butterfly, they are simple and subtle but quite beautiful up close.

My First Game of Soccer

Well i have played football before but this was the first time iv played in america, i was really nervous but it was really good fun in the end and i wasnt too bad in defence well except when the ball hit me twice and created bruises, but it was all worth it, i had a really great time.

The state fair was amazing, there were hugely fat americans and hugely fat animals too, there was the biggest pig at 1250 pounds and a huge watermelon in the prize veg section that weighed 110 pounds!!!! there was so much to see it was bigger then england i swear, full of food places and rides and animal enclosures- u could even watch animals give birth! there was places to buy boots and alpaca scarfs and there were human butter sculptures it was like disney! i had an icecream that was pretty much as big as my head!

there was also deep fried everything... candybars, sweets, hotdogs, icecream, cheese and everything it was ridiculous there was even an english fish and chips stand :) i loved it it was so american and ridiculous it was amazing! there were the cutest baby pigs too that were cuddling.
