The project is simply about the beauty of subject matter. How you define that is your challenge.
IN CLASS DIRECTIONS: Make 20+ images as listed on the class pass.
SPRING BREAK DIRECTIONS: Be mindful of the APERTURE & ISO controls. The wider the aperture, the more out of focus the background will be.
If you have a DSLR explore your camera settings (ISO, APERTURE, SHUTTER) and make 20+ images of cherry blossoms.
In-class & over break combined, you should have 30+ images of cherry blossoms the first day after spring break.
Possible Ideas...
-overexpose the image (high key lighting. CLICK HERE)
-underexpose the image (low key lighting. CLICK HERE).
-flash at night
-a friend's hand & blossom in focus, while the rest of the background is out of focus (depth of field).
-more...
*Think outside the box.
**Can you photograph in a way that gives us an unexpected image of the subject matter?
