Things

After edit:

shiny thing 2

First the edit: I had to edit the last picture of the pins because the background had a black line due to the background I use, moved. I used photoshop to edit it and make sure it looks better and the black line wasn’t there any more by using the copy and eraser tool as other tools I used didn’t work and made it look worse.

The background I used was made of a cardboard box with plain A3 paper inside. The lighting I used was by a normal battery powered torch which I am proud of how it turned out. However if I were to do it again, I might have choose another object than the pins however I like the bangle and the skateboard bearing as they were nice to photograph.

bananas

 

This picture was mainly made for fun but the meaning behind this could be that the simplest of objects can be given characteristics or a different meaning just by editing. People who saw this thought it was cute and funny, whilst when you think of bananas, they are just fruit. Editing it the way I did, gave it different characteristics to what you normally would give to this object.

With this picture I found of an array of pencils, I thought this idea of giving them all the same lead would be cool. It can be seen as a demonstration of everyone is different on the outside but we are the same on the inside no matter what our outsides are. I thought the text would look good as it looks like it was shaded in with a pencil which matches the rest of the picture.
