By Keith Caudle, Fairfield, Ala.– For this assignment we had to pick an everyday object and focus on a small part of it. The key to this assignment was to get as close as we could to the object and shoot it from different angles. With the photos that we chose we were to add sentences that would explain each photo, which I decided to add as the cutline of my photos.
1. This shot shows the side view of my object. I love the way the small details show up in the picture from the smallest cracks to the dirt that I did not realize was there.
2. The angle that I shot this picture from makes the object look as if it is elevated off of the surface. The artificial light in the room worked well in this shot, because a reflection from the object shows up in the shadow.
3. The under view of the object was highlighted in this shot. The purpose of the shot was to show the space between the top and base of the object, which makes it look as if something is missing.
4. In this picture the bottom half of the object is shown. The flash made this picture appear to be taken in the dark, because of the flash from the camera.
5. My object is a mirror support. This object is right by my bed in my dorm room, and it has indirectly become a part of my daily life. I spin this object at least 2 to 3 times a day whether I am thinking or watching television.
