So, in the middle of trying to get this picture...in the snow...while it's in the 30s, and my whole body is numb...I had this brief thought, WHY didn't I give myself this assignment in the summertime?? When it's warm!!?!? Then, I snapped back to reality. If I was doing this in the summer, in NC, all I would have is a bunch of pictures of me sweating profusely, with big huge humid afro hair. No good. So, I'll brave the cold for these shots!
I found this amazing red garage the other day when I was exploring downtown Raleigh. I knew I had the perfect coat to contrast with it! Just to give you an idea of how to get a good shot...first, find an awesome location, then play around with perspectives. At first, I was taking shots like this:
Then, I started playing with different angles and got this:
and this:
MUCH cooler! all from a change in perspective! So, go low, go high, go close, back wayyyyy up...just play! It'll be much easier when you aren't taking pictures of yourself, too!
