Art at Los Medanos College

The Photography Art 72 class made photos where they left the shutter open a long time in the dark then ran around and "painted" with flashlights. Their photos are delightful surprises, with light magically streaking across the frame or coming from nowhere to illuminate an object. Somehow it seems appropriately symmetricial that photographers who deal with light are had to deal with the darkness to make these photos. You can see more "paint with light" photography (as well as some other assignments) in in this Flickr slideshow of class work.

Randy Hake made this photo "Reflections, Embarcadero Center" as part of an assignment in the "Survey of Digital Photography" (ART 72) class. It first place in its division at the Northern California Council of Camera Clubs competition. Pretty cool, huh? But wait! There's more! This semester's photo class has a Flickr Photo Pool. Here's a slide show of the work students have uploaded to Flickr and sent to the LMC pool.
