Introductory Photo Essay


I am a psychology major, religion minor, but I was also a music composition major. Last year I took photos for the music composition department in front of the Walsh Performing Arts Center and Ed Landreth where I took piano lessons since I was 6 years old.

I love dancing and I love participating in multicultural organizations. Last year we danced in SAICA's Experience India.

I love going to the commons because there is always something interesting to do there. Last year SAICA had a holi festival. Holi is a Hindu festival celebrating Spring!

I am always looking for an opportunity to travel and learn something new. Last year I went on the Slave Trade Bus Tour to Louisiana. It was such a rewarding experience and towards the end of  the trip we were able to see the marshlands of the 9th Ward. I love capturing the beauties of nature.

Lastly, I really enjoy travelling with friends and discovering new places. I don't mind going somewhere just to take pictures. Last year we went to Turner Falls and climbed to the top just to do that.

Week 4

This week we read Atonement. Our first destination was the British Library. Briony, the narrator of the story came of age as a writer. If her story was real it would have been with the other Literature. Briony seeked atonement through her writing. If you haven't read, go read Atonement  to find out what crime she committed and why she must seek atonement. There's a huge plot twist... Here is an image of How I Love Thee  by Elizabeth Barret Browning found in the Literature section.  Our second destination was the Imperial War Museum. Part 2 of the novel takes place during wartime.  Here is Graham Zeitlin. He was 10 years old during WWII and had to seek shelter in the Morrison shelter like the one pictured below. Meeting him was the best part of my week by far. He told us stories of his childhood and said it was wonderful. He never missed school except for five days when it was bombed, he could make his own ice cream because he could not easily go to the store and

Week 2

This week we read Brideshead Revisited by Evelyn Waugh. Our first destination was Christ Church, Oxford. Here is an image of the great hall which signifies the excellence that dined here. The characters, Charles and Sebastian, in the novel went here. Fun fact: Harry Potter was also filmed here. This was taken in Christ Church at a fountain in the center. Water can be interpreted many ways, but the lotuses and lily pads are peaceful and can resemblance hope and purity. The ripples show how when you toss something into this water it causes a long term effect. The actions of the characters in the novel we read made choices that lead to their ultimate rise or downfall. Our next destination was the Eltham Palace. Here I am inside the beautiful garden attempting to become one with nature. The garden was so vast, and this doesn't even begin to capture the beauty of what I saw. Here is an image of mother and child in the Italian Drawing Room. Many of the characters
