Time- Crystal Petrella

"Photography is the stopping of time....owning the moment forever." Anonymous

Time can be measured in seconds, minutes, hours, days, months, years, stages in life (infant, toddler, child, etc) and then by moments. For a split second photographers can freeze time by capturing those moments so that moment can be cherished and remembered for as long as the image lasts. Then time goes on until there is another moment for us to freeze time.

Sean Alexander - Stereotype

In a study by Michael Sunnafrank at the University of Minnesota, a group of college students were documented from the point they first met each other to about nine days. Sunnafrank thought that the first impressions the students had of each other would dilute as they were given more opportunities to get to know each other. The reality was that, regardless of anything new they learned, if the students had a negative or positive first impression then the relationship followed that immediate reaction.

Everything isn't black and white but in a society where we judge instantaneously and then refuse to change that judgement even though we might have similar interests, it's easy to see why stereotypes are a big part of our culture.

Katelyn Lumpkins- Green!

"April showers brings May flowers." Lately everything has been gray and gloomy, but once the spring rain storms pass our gardens are lush and flowers are flourishing. These grape hyacinth flowers are especially thriving on this spring morning after the nightly rain shower.

Green-Caitlin McBride

When given the word "green" to portray in a photograph I immediately thought of greenery. I love spring, and seeing flowers bloom and the green grass emerge over the brown fields of winter. It makes me feel new and fresh. I went to my friends house on a beautiful Friday and went out to her backyard. Her yard is full of dead grass, but on the side yard there was cluster of flowers that had sprung up. I immediately grabbed my camera and photographed this beautiful beginning of spring.

Spring - Devan Dennis

When I think of Spring I mostly see the warming of the Winter and the melting of the snow. I picture beautiful botanicals defying the cold to capture any light they can simply to bloom. It is from all the harsh cold that this water comes to be and give life to the warmer of things.
