Things

For this assignment, we were to take closeup shots of various objects. In this we learned how to focus on a subject (in this case, an object), and have a aesthetically pleasing background, that is also out of focus. 

In my photo, I used the rule of thirds to place the subject in a aesthetically pleasing position. When I went in to edit it, I fixed the little bit of over exposure from the sun on the right side, and used the dodge and burn tools to darken the shadows of the photo and lighten the highlights of it. Through this I was able to make a nicely saturated and defined photo. 

Golden Hour is one of my favorite times to do shoots at (for my cosplay photos, in which I model), and being able to take that opportunity for myself and shoot my favorite figures during that hour was really fun and I really impressed myself with what I could do.
