For this prompt, I decided to gather many items that are special to me or that I feel represent me. The multicolored bracelets in the background and the doll are all from México, my birth country, bought in areas with their own speciality of traditional handcrafts. Next to them are items I like to collect: stationary, keychains, pens. This contrast of simple manufactured objects and intricate handcrafts represent my strange combination of cultures and personalities. I decided not to make the white balance too warm because I wanted the brightness of the objects to pop out.
