Week 3 BOC: Sports Photography
I wanted to capture the moment at view that a bowler would see it and at an angle so that one can see the motion put into the sport. I used the lighting in the bowling alley to make the game pop out and the people look dark to make it look like it is the sport that they are focusing on. The blue bowling ball seemed perfect against the yellow floors because it popped out better. I wanted to get the bowling ball in action as the bowler is still watching but still in motion from his shot. It was taken at 11:15pm at the Sunset Station on February 3rd on a Thursday night. It was on off time for the bowling alley because on Fridays are Cosmic Bowling during the late night hours. There were many pink bowling balls (the lightest balls) available that night. Because on busy nights like Friday there are next to none pink balls around available. It was only about ten alleys that were filled with bowlers. Most of them were high school to junior high aged kids bowling their free time away. One girl did a little dance and made her friends laugh. There were a couple of families enjoying and spending family time together. They have a snack bar open for bowlers if they need something to snack on for example, chicken fingers, fries, hotdog, nachos, and beverages such as sodas and juices. If one ever gets too bored, they have music playing and some sports on television sets above them to watch while waiting to bowl. For the more gregarious type, there is a bar behind them for some favorite alcoholic drink. There is also a pool table in the bar area for those that want a different sport to play.
Week 3 EOC Where Are you and Where Are You Going?
Where I am now financially is rough. Every time I try to save up or get a new account, I have another thing coming. It gets repetitive like the third party knew I had some set aside. I just sit and say well that was for that situation and know that I was able to pay it off. I have only enough to handle my small personal emergencies. I have enough to get my projects done that’s how I am now. I have always had medical insurance. In the past, I have been doing a retirement with saving some for bigger goals. I have had problems keeping track of what I had in my account in the past because I relied on the computer instead of my own calculations. In the past I was able to have enough to take little trips and invest in a business I was growing. It was a worth while investment because I had learned a lot about how to educate yourself in the business world. I am on my third new car and my first one was paid off so then I got a new one. The second one got messed up from reasons I would not mention so now I am on my third. In the future, I would like to be able to take little trips, save for retirement and save more for later. I want to have enough where I can have a family, nice home, two cars, couple cameras and insurance for each. I would like to have business insurance for my business also so that I can keep it afloat in bad situations that may come up. I still spend on things I should not because I think I would be fine in the end. And next thing I know it is gone and I am barely scrapping by to get some gas. I have to keep myself on that road to financial stability so that it is stable and sit back and say it has and will always be a good rough road to travel.
