The artist that I had was Fred Herzog, specifically his street photography. Planning and shooting this photo was definitely the most difficult part of this whole process because there wasn't a lot of people on the street, and there wasn't really a real story behind this shot. I did really love the gloomy feel of the weather and I tried to portray that this the picture with the clouds around the mountains in the background. Just like Herzog would, I wanted to show what the place that I was shooting (Collingwood) was like. I tried to add the mountains in the background to show the topography of the area, and include the sea of Douglas Firs. All in all, I tried my very best to portray what I thought Herzog would do, given the circumstances of not having many people in the photo.

Emulating Herzog's style is tricky given our location for sure, Sophia. I think you have succeeded in capturing many Herzog-like elements however and it does the trick for documenting many things about the area and the setting we are in. Nice work.
