Hometown

An overall view of the neighborhood where kids play and often times ride their long-boards down the hill but during Halloween, can tire the kids immensely after walking up and down the hill a couple times.

In the background here is a pool, where people can go and swim or sit in the hot tub, but also many people bike along the path that goes around it. This gives the neighborhood a community feel and can bring people together very effectively. People all around the neighborhood often gather for cookouts or bike rides along the trail going through the neighborhood.

The local park in this neighborhood where often times young kids go to the playground to enjoy themselves on the swings, slides or in a game of tag. Also, a lot of kids join and play outdoor basketball nearby. People that live within walking distance of the playground often times come with their kids and dogs.

For my action shot is going to be volleyball players training for a sand volleyball tournament that is coming up. The school has nice sand volleyball courts on campus so preferably when they have practice and the weather is nice. I am really worried that i will have a nice angle, lighting and picture but that i won't be able to capture it as clearly as I want to. I'll try various settings on the camera to try and get it right. For the overall I want to get a shot of the entire game, while the medium I want to get one person being the focus but also have the other players in the background. For my closeup I want to get a shot of somebody hitting the ball or approaching a spike because I feel that is the slam dunk or home run equivalent but in volleyball.
