Something I have become interested in learning more about is the NYC skyline and how it has changed over the years. I started to become interested in Berenice Abbott because because he would take pictures of buildings in NYC. So far I have learned that Berenice Abbott was born in Ohio but moved to New York City when she was twenty to pursue photography. She mostly took black and white photos of New York City architecture. Abbott payed attention to minor details when taking photos and showed different aspects of urban life and the diversity of New York City. 

I am exploring the sense of mood of New York City for my digital photography project. I am interested in this theme because I live in New York City and I like to understand how different places make me feel or how I react to my location. I became interested in this idea after I looked at other photographer's work from from different areas of the world. These pictures inspired me to look around my own loacation. I realized there are so many different areas in New York City that give me completely different feelings so I decided to expand on this idea.
