Photography class: Assignment 2 - Observing

The second assignment of my photography class was to form my name using photos, more specifically:

• Use one photo per letter
• The photo has to be of a common object that looks like a letter
• I could not use things that are ment to be letters like the McDonalds sign
• I could not use ropes or strings to form a letter myself

Here are the photos I took, I must say they are not the best ones I've taken, but they were enough for the assignment.

Letter M: Part of my kitchen tiles

Letter A: Bottom of my Eiffel tower souvenir

Letter R: Part of a rose stalk

Letter I: Part of the thing I use to hold my kitchen paper towels

Letter C: Part of the thing I use to hang my keys

Letter E: Part of a napkin ring

Letter L: Part of a photo frame where I have a picture of my dog Sam

All together

What did I learn with this assignment?

• To observe
• To pay attention to my surroundings
• To pay attention to the details
• To look for forms, lines and patterns
• To try to pre-visualize how the photo is going to look before taking it

This was fun, do you want to form your own name?
