Name of Photographer: Eliot Porter
Date of Birth: 1901
1. Eliot was the 2nd of 5 children in an upper middle class family. His father was an amateur architect, and a natural history enthusiast. Followed a family tradition of going to Harvard for collage. He also graduated with a Bachelor of Science degree in chemical engineering in 1923, and a medical degree in 1929. 2. Eliot takes a lot nature pictures. To me it makes me calm so maybe that’s why he takes so many pictures of trees and nature. Another reason why he might take pictures of nature is because he so so motivated or it means something to him. 3. In 1924 he started taking photography of birds. In 1933 he was powerfully moved by Ansel Adams. His work then was also similar to Ansel Adams photography “ Straight”. 4. Eliot Porter has inspired me to want to take pictures of nature so I can stay calm. I really like his pictures because I go camping a lot and in the summer im outdoors often. I also realized that I couldn’t find many pictures when it was in the winter so I also think that he decides to take his pictures in the summer because its special to him. 5. 5 Will be on weebly.

Each photo is very similar. Mine obviously have snow Bc it is the winter time so they couldn’t be exactly alike. I am very proud of my photo Bc I was shivering the entire time. I really hope you enjoy my photos and my final project. 7. My first photo I took now that I look at it is kinda sad, to me it reminds me of how negitive people are and how they make people act. My second photo a pile of junk to me. It’s like when people don’t want to loose things they think have sentimental value in them. My llast photo is like an old place that had memories but had to be torn down Bc it has nothing to offer anymore.
