For my “frame within the frame” I used the rim of a jar as a frame, and an origami strawberry as the subject within it. A while ago, I made a ton of these origami strawberries, as you can see from the other jar blurred in the background.…

To create a more cinematic photograph for the color theory prompt, I used Photoshop on the photo to shift the mood of the photo. The original photo (top) I thought had a very airy and light feeling, given the brighter white lighting and cooler colors present. When taking…

For the low angles prompt, I decided to take a photo of my dog. A lot of the times, I sit on the floor doing work while he sits on my bed. Or sometimes he likes to stare at me from the top of the stairs. So, I…

To add emotion to the rule of thirds, I photographed a shelf of paint organized by color. I thought each color could represent a different emotion; red for anger, yellow for happiness, blue for sadness, and so on. The different sections align with each third of the frame,…

In light of Christmas, I took this photo of a little Santa figure in front of other small holiday decorations. My mom always sets up a small village of mini Christmas-themed houses, trees, and other colorful decor on our mantle or a shelf. I decided to photograph this,…

Leading lines to “infinity” was sort of hard to find a subject for, but ultimately I was able to come away with this photo. It’s the structure outside of the library, and i think the shape and the lines of the pavement help lead your eye along the…
