Farley Gleeful Photography Mashup


I think I have a visual dyslexia that allows me to mix up images and words. Sometimes, this dyslexia works against me, but other times I find ways to enjoy the mashup. On my Photo 1 blog, I have added fun photos taken by Photo 1 students and some Advanced Photo students.


Today, June 2, Andrea Banales took a photo of me and Photo 1 student Dejanai Strassner. Below, students from third period played photography.

The ROAR photo was taken on June 4th.

Dejanai photographed me on June 4 with Brad Paisely. Say Paisely!

Last week, I introduced my students to using a white board as a reflector.

During Bryan Farley's Advanced Photography class, Bryan Farley points to a seem in the wall of a picture of Bryan Farley. In the original photo, Bryan Farley taught his Photo 1 class how to use a blank wall as a seamless background. Photo by Christina - Advanced Photography class, Period 2

If you want to add more photos, you can send them to me and/or include the link in your subject line.
