Merger Preview

1. Is there something you see in the photo above that you think could be a problem when you take your photos? Look carefully. Shadows would definitely be an issue and just different lighting in different layers. 2. Where do you think would be a great place to take this type of picture here on the Bowie campus? By the roses would be an interesting place to do it as there are many different places to pose/do. 3. Can you think of something creative to actually DO in the photo when you take yours? I could be smelling the rose, jumping over myself from the bench in the garden, or getting closer or farther from the camera. 4.
