Chicago - Architecture and Street Photography
Purpose
The images were taken in downtown Chicago with my travel photography class. We were to capture a variety of shots that were unique to Chicago. To me, these images were uniquely Chicago because the architecture and landmarks in the photos can only be found in Chicago.
Target Audience
These photos would appeal to anyone who loves Chicago. They would especially appeal to people who know the area and have visited these locations and want to remember the city.
Problem Solving
For this project, the challenge was that I had not yet purchased a 55-250mm camera lens, so I took them all with my 18-55mm lens. Also the weather kept changing while we were there so I had to keep adjusting my aperture, ISO and shutter speed with the changing conditions.
