The First Look Fair, one of the longest running
University of Maryland traditions, offers students an opportunity to see what
the university has to offer in terms of clubs, organizations, and more.
More than 500 students set up stands on the
McKeldin Mall surrounding the McKeldin fountain, one of the school's most
iconic locations. In order to show off what their organization is all about, students can get very creative.
The University of Maryland Club Sailing Team promoted their club by bringing in a real sailing boat. Towering over the rest of the stands, the sailing boat really stands out.
Olivia Wolski (18) and Mellownie Ho (21) are part of UMD's Department of Transportation Services HR Department. One can spin the DOTS wheel of fortune and walk away with all sorts of prizes.
UMD's Gymkana Troupe promoted their healthy lifestyle message by jumping on a trampoline.
My close up picture was not really a close up so next time I have to make sure to get closer to the subject. If i could have captured the expressions of the girls closer up I think it would have made a difference in conveying the emotions experienced during The First Look Fair.
On a more positive side, I think that I captured motion pretty well. The First Look Fair is by no means boring so the picture of the girl doing a flip on the trampoline and the chaotic scene in the DOTS HR Department picture capture the sensation of being there.
Below you can find the link for the organizations I took pictures of:
