Here is what we took:
Johnnie Mercer’s Free-Standing Sign
The free-standing sign is the first part of the pier seen as beach goers arrive at Johnnie Mercer’s. This was our mess up shot. We read the light meter incorrectly. After taking the other six pictures we took a few more pictures of the sign, framing the shot differently, with the sign positioned in the upper corner of the frame rather than dead center. This framing allowed for more scenery (part of a beach shop and street lamp can be seen), making the picture much more interesting.

Extras
Underneath Pier
This shot had interesting angles with symmetrical slanting posts. The waves are breaking through the posts which, is very cool. The shot is the darkest of our seven and I think one of the best. It was very bright on Saturday.

Long Shot of Pier (from balcony)
This picture we took because it shows the majority of the pier. It shows the view from a beachfront homeowner’s perspective.

Fence and Pier
The fencing along the dunes in this shot was falling down a little which fit nicely with our topic of destruction. We couldn’t stand on dunes though to really get them in the shot.

End of Pier (looking back at building)
We wanted to have a shot from as far out as we could get without experiencing vertigo.

Side of Pier (looking out at ocean)
This shot looked pretty. Also the man in charge of letting people out on the pier was somewhat confused by what we were trying to take pictures of, so we thought it would be easiest if, for this shoot at least, we didn’t spend much time actually out on the pier.

Original Sign from 1933 (on side of building)
Need I explain more? Also, the angles of the steps are cool.

I love all of your pictures, they all came out with a really old feel to them. This especially goes with your theme because you're focusing on the pier before it was destroyed and rebuilt (the original) and though this is the new pier, all of your pictures "feel" old. It would be cool if during editing you somehow put an old film filter on your footage . . it might be a cool effect . . . christy
