I attended was the Fleitz Pumpkin Farm trip with The Residence Hall Association at the University of Toledo. I tried to be a photojournalist as well but I really felt like an event attendee taking photos. I liked the photo I got of the little girl dancing in front of the camera that was a cool shot. Some people tried to get out of my way for my crowd shots because they thought that I didn't want them in the picture. When in reality I wanted pictures with people.

After the class discussion on Tuesday, I decided to give being a photojournalist another shot and this time not as an event attendee. I went to Tricks, Treats and Dunks solely as a photojournalist. I wish I would have arrived earlier because while I did not move around to get different pictiures I never was right in the front row because I didn't want to seem awkward or weird. I think learning to be awkward is just all part of the process.
