Objective
The objective for this project is to take an artistic picture of someone wearing converse in a pile of leaves. I have always wanted to take a picture like this and I'm going to tone down the lighting to make the whole picture just a tiny bit darker.
Research
I like these pictures because they show different angles of where the shoes are in the picture. I also like the different colors and filters they used, some bright and some darker.

My 20 New Photos
I took these photos at my friend's house who lives out in the canyon. We took these nearby leaves and we took photos in different angles with different lighting. I took a lot from above the shoes and from the side angle. I really like these pictures because they give a happy but also at the same time rustic look.

My Four Edited Photos
These are my four edited photos for this objective. The objective was to dim the lighting of the picture a little bit, and I did that with the fourth picture. I especially like the posterized picture and the brighter-converse picture.

Observation:
- The converse are the main object
- The converse are white
- The picture is posterized
- There is grass in the background
- The lighting is from above
- The shot is from the side
- There are many textures and colors in the grass
- There's a shimmer in the converse
- Some parts of the grass aren't posterized
- The shoes and legs give a shadow in the front of the picture
Describe:
When I look at the picture, I see that converse are the main subject. I also see that the picture is posterized. The angle is shot at a 45 degree angle, and there's most of the shoes but not the whole shoe. The converse are white, with blue and red stripes on the sides. The shoes are lying on the grass, and there is grass in the background too. There are two leaves next to the shoes, and they are blackish brown. The lighting is from above, making a shadow from the converse that shows in the front of the picture. In the right top corner of the picture, the background is black. There are many textures and colors in the leaves, and some parts of the grass aren't posterized. On the converse, there is almost a shimmer from the posterization.

Analyze:
One Element of Design is the textures that corresponds with the Principle of Design emphasis. The shoes are the main object, and there is a weird texture, almost a shimmer, that really makes the shoes pop out. Another Element of Design that helps with the emphasis of the shoes is the shape. Against the green grass, the white converse really pop out and make it the main object. One more Element of Design is the lines that correspond with the Principle of Design repetition. The grass's lines are very alike and they're very repetitive.

Interpretation:
When I look at this picture, I get the fun and cartoony vibe. Since the picture is posterized, it looks almost animated which I think is fun and exciting. This picture reminds me of when I watched animated TV shows and movies as a kid, but also gives the mature look since the main object in the picture is the converse.

Evaluate:
I really like this picture. I love the shimmer that the converse have, and I really like the look of the posterization. One thing that I could of done was to make the whole picture posterized because there's a section of grass that's still clear and real. I think that overall, however, it's a good looking picture and it's fun.
