Sculptured House
Charles Deaton built this
built in 1963
located on Genesee Mountain, colorado
im not exactly sure if it is open to the public because it says that it was sold.
the builder built it because he said he found the mountain and wanted to build on it because he 
felt one of the greatest reaches of earth. 
I picked this because i thought it was really nicely shaped, i would love to live in a house like this. Im going to colorado for summer so i want to go see it in person now.

Turning Torso
Santiago calatrava 
building from 2001-2005
Located in Malmo Sweden
it is open to the public if the visit is booked ahead
built to be a residential building
i picked this because i really think it is cool to have a really tall building that twists.
The look of it is modern and looks really cool and interesting  especially since people can live there.

Eden Project
nicholas Grimshaw
Construction started in 2000
Cornwall England 
 open to the public
for plants kept in the biomes from diverse environments 
I think the idea of this is really interesting especially since people can actually visit it and see all of the diverse of plants from different environments while being in a  cool bubble.

The basket building 
The Longaberger Company thought of the idea
1997
Newark Ohio
yes its open to the public
its the company, they sell baskets and other home products
i thought this was really interesting for a company to make their building a creative shape.

sports action

  Across the camera:
Madison across the camera as she goes outside to take photos for her journalism class on this
beautiful day.

  Blur Photo:
Two boys battle for the soccer ball as they try and score a goal.
  Panning
Claudio runs after his friends for the soccer ball.
  Running at the camera:
Gym student runs toward  the basket before making a hoop.


warm up, sensory overload


I agree with his statement
i feel like when i take photos i try and capture the things happening around me, stuff that surrounds me as well.
these photos are interesting and well taken but they don't particularly catch my attention to want to go and visit.
i feel like if i was a child of someone who worked here i would be interested by the things in the store but if there wasn't another kid in there to play with me i would get bored, but then again thats a different culture than  ours so it can be different for them.
my favorite photo was the one with the manikins because it was creepy but makes you wonder if people actually buy those.
