One Shot.

For this part of our assignment we had to create an 8 in-8 in square image that includes one random object and people. I tried to make my object relevant to me, and I wanted to have a choice for my final image, so within my 5 photo limit I chose 3 different ideas. My first idea was to have my object be the cigarette being held by a girl sitting on the floor, the first 2 shot were ones I tried from different angles, but I prefer my final crop because it is simple and clear.

I liked this image, but thought it had too much emphasis on the hand and didn't really include much else.

I liked this image but was put off by the person standing in the background because it takes attention away from the main subject.

This is the image I used for my final image.

My other ideas were the 2 shown below using a book and a lollipop for my objects. I didn't like the composition of the image for the book, I would've preferred to have it more zoomed out and show more on the left of the image. I liked the image of the lollipop for the tight crop and the use of colour but I decided not to use it for my final image because I seemed a bit odd and I preferred my image with the cigarette. The lollipop image was a self portrait so I had to get someone else to take the photo and I directed them on how I wanted the shot to look.
