welcome to 55

room 55 that is. it's where the students of East Anchorage High School gather to learn about photography and pursue creative expression. it's also a place where life-long friendships may be forged through the fires of academic pursuit.

this blog will be a celebration of the photography students in room 55. we will post lecture summaries, key concepts, student photos, links to relevant artistic websites, assignment reminders, and whatever else interests us.

feel free to comment and visit weekly for updates.

we begin this journey alone, but we come together in room 55.
