Reflection: 

After looking at the finished piece, I am mostly happy with the outcome. I feel like I achieved a similar feeling to that of the song, and I had a good time photographing and editing. However, I do feel like I rushed some of the graphic elements now. The solid lines definitely add some focus and flow to the piece, but are placed a little awkwardly in certain portions. I would definitely edit those lines in another version. The main problem that I have with the piece is that I think it lacks a sense of purpose. The song itself is relatively inward focused, and does not have much of a message other than engaging ones mind in nature. Therefore, I think that by itself, it is relatively bland. 

One main change that I have developed in my appreciation of art is the use of photography. I've taken several art courses in high school, so I already had a sense for classical and modern art, but I never really got the chance to practice photography. After this module, I have come to see the beauty in capturing something as it appears, but limiting the viewers perception to a single point of view. Then through the lesson on pop art, I came to see the value of editing pictures to emphasize certain features. I am not sure that I would have responded too differently before this course however, because I feel that the piece was still relatively rushed, and looks a bit messy. However, I think I wouldn't have understood it as well.
