Capture the Fall

                          

This is my capture the fall project. I shot it with a point and shoot camera. Special thanks to my sister Rosie and my cat Milo.

I would have liked to shoot this with a better camera because the quality is on the low side and some of the trees could have looked really cool with a better camera. Also, it's very shaky so that is something I'll need to work on for the next individual assignment.

Good TV

Some TV shows are really bad, probably most that exist today. But, there are some that are very good. The series Homeland took away a lot of awards for it's first season that aired last year. I've been watching the beginning of it on disc, and from what I've seen, it's a good show. It's very tense, and the plot is a little unorthodox focusing on two characters who rarely encounter eachother, but the dialogue and the cinematography are very cool. It's about a CIA operative and a recently released prisoner of war from Iraq, and it focuses on the former's constant paranoia and the latter's struggle to live a normal life. The other show that I've been watching old episodes from is called Justified. It's much less popular and as far as I know, hasn't won any awards, but I think it's the best TV show out there. The main reason for this is that it's based on a book by Elmore Leonard, one of the greatest crime writers still alive. It's about a federal marshal who's sent back to his hometown in Kentucky for shooting a drug dealer in Miami. It's basically a cop show, but the criminals are all simpathetic in a twisted way, and the dialogue and acting are excellent and sometimes wryly hilarious. I would recommend both of these shows to just about anyone.
