Green Seas Awards Show
This is the time of year for award ceremonies. Celebrities walk the red carpet, showing off their designer attire. The media is abuzz over the top candidates for each award.

Photo Safari: Rule of Thirds
Beginning photographers have one rule of composition…put your subject in the dead center of the photograph. In photography class, we spend a great deal of time talking about composing interesting photos. One of the most basic rules of composition is the ‘Rule of Thirds‘ which divides the image into thirds horizontally and vertically. Objects of interest are placed along one of the lines or at the intersection of lines.
Check out the photos taken by the class here.
Photo Safari: Fog
About once a week, the photography class is tasked with heading out on campus to make a photo that fits a particular theme. One January day, we had a beautiful morning fog. Fog produces a soft, shadow-free light.

Hidden Faces
Photographers see the world differently. A photograph is a small piece of the world frozen in time and place. In this project, our C-Hawk photographers were tasked with looking at the world differently…looking for faces in everyday objects.
