For homework!  Assignment #7

                                           Shooting Assignment #7

This is in preparation for something we’ll be discussing further in the coming weeks.

You only need to take two photograph for this assignment.  

I want you to choose two of the following words and then I want you to create a photograph based on the words you chose. 

Death

Happiness

Pride

Guilt

Loneliness

Relaxation

Tension

Carefree

Fear

Blue

Green

Fall

Rebirth

Loyalty

When you upload it I want you to label that photograph with the word that inspired that photograph.

There is no wrong or right answer but be prepared to explain how the photograph goes with that word.

Don’t over think the photograph….go with your instinct.
