Exemplary Photo + 5 Photography Sites

This is my favorite photo that I feel is my best work, exemplifying what I strive for in photography. When I saw this scene for the first time, something about the symmetry and the circular tables appealed to me. It took me a while to find a way to take this picture; no camera I had could take such a wide angle.

Multicultural Week Photo Story

The day's lunch, costing $9 total. More food came later
to settle my insatiable appetite, bringing the total 
up to $14. The rest of my group spent around $7-8 on food.

Eric Zhang and his Impromptu Club friends await
 customers. They sold Arizona iced teas for $1 during
the week, selling out every day.

Graduating Class booths, after a long day of sales.
In-n-Out was sold by the sophomore class, and was
one of the more popular foods available during the week.

Ticket booths selling tickets used to buy food 
were located all around the horseshoe, but most 
were placed near the office due to the influx of 
students from that direction.

The members of the Puili dance group get ready 
to perform. Puili is a traditional percussive
 Hawaiian dance involving the use of long bamboo 
sticks called puili sticks.

The members of the Hip Hop dance group finish with a flourish. 
Hip hop tends to be the most popular of the dances performed, 
due to the energy and technical skill the dancers exhibit in their performance.

Photo Story Description #2: MC Week!

Only three stands remain as the day's lunch draws to a close. Few stands remain; most are sold out and have already begun packing up. The crowd of students just minutes before have dispersed, loaded with food, to their respective lunching spots on campus.

Photo Story Description #1

A squirrel found on the UC Berkeley campus is looking at a miniature of the

UC Berkeley bell tower. Just prior to this, the squirrel was planning to steal

a student's lunch, after trying to eat the student's hat that is now on its head. The

nice treatment squirrels like this one receive at the hands of UC Berkeley students

is the reason why the campus has many aggressive squirrels.

twelve tickets don't arrive

i chase the bell to buy more

but few are worth them

------

I have economics, then calculus, then physics, then lunch. In a way, it's preparation to make a cost-benefit analysis of the taste and caloric content of the food. Despite the hype, the food, the four days of excess spending and "epicurean" delight, I still manage to forget to rush out the door after fourth period. Four years of this only has made me more forgetful of the rush for food, as I've found that other things take precedence as one has their horizons expanded by education and experience. But a part of me still clings to the past, to the times when I didn't have to care so much about college or money or grades and just live in the fishbowl of school. So I still rush out after every afternoon bell, despite my engrossment in what I am doing in class, or in the conversations I have with others. In the end, does the food really matter?
