This week I was challenged to use the composition skill of filling the frame for my photo. It had just rained earlier today, and the lemons still had some precipitation on them. I jumped on this opportunity and took a picture of one.

This week we were challenged to use geometry in our photo for this week. In this simple picture of a tennis ball, I included various shapes in the background and on the subject. There are less traditional shapes, but there are also regular shapes to be found in the picture.

This week we were challenged to take a photo of something with a speed light. This was done as part of my design homework, so I asked my two friends to be models after school and it was super fun.
