Day 2

I really wasn’t feeling like anything was going to happen today, and arguably it didn’t.  I shot this photo because I hadn’t shot anything else all day. It seemed like decent potential for a feature style photo, but it just didn’t come together.  It probably doesn’t help that I didn’t know exactly what I was looking for.  Hopefully something else happens tonight so this doesn’t have to be my Day 2 photo.

Breanna Fousek a junior in Kinesiology and Ellyn McGranahan a junior in Sociology enjoy some sun while dipping their feet in the Union Fountain on Iowa State’s campus on July 21, 2010.  Fousek says they were on campus, “It was really hot, and we decided to put our feet in.” 

So that wasn't quite good enough. I'm not super thrilled with the photos from tonight, but they are better than this afternoon.  I have to learn not to force photos.  Shoot, and shoot, but don't force it.  Is this better?
