My site is mostly next to houses. There are some areas where there are food in that neighborhood but I wasn’t able to capture a good point of view. I was able to capture the site from a birds eye view and the street. There is a school that I went to that is near the site. The places that I hang out for fun is O.C.P. I didn’t capture it because it wasn’t in the neighborhood area but it is close. But my me and my friend mostly hangout in the school area or the school field. But my picture mostly consists of the site and the streets that connects it.
