For this assignment I decided to capture "still life". What this is, is taking pictures of a subject, or subjects, and making it look the way you would see it in a professional advertisement or product shoot. The subjects I chose for this include an antique 1910 Union Leader Redi Cut tobacco tin, a vase of flowers (artificial), an assortment of graphic novels, and a few more things. During this shoot, I learned that the background of an image is just as important as the subject itself. for instance I couldn't find a plain white sheet to use for my background, so instead I sought out other things I could use and instead settled on some sheets of printer paper as the ground and a white wall and door as the vertical surface. Another thing I learned from this is the importance of light placement. It really makes a difference on a picture how dark the subjects shadow is and where it is placed.
