Week 3- Journal

 










One of the items that I have been pondering since photography was mentioned in Week 1 is the concept of is creating a series of artwork that documents the travel we do for my son health. Today, as I sat in the back seat again, I realized that we are witness to "Moving Landscapes." Here are a couple of examples of my long-exposures.
