Conceptual Shooting Assignment

Photo I surrealism project

This assignment is designed to get you some specific images to add to your clip art collection.

You should photograph these images with good composition, rule-of-thirds when appropriate, and use of the principles and elements of design. Be exact when the request is exact! Take extra images if you can afford it financially or storage-wise. For some of the images (toys, hands, dolls, etc., use a plain white or dark background. Do not use flash and try to use similar natural lighting on all of your objects and backgrounds.
