WEEK #3

Craft- In order to take this picture I first had to find a can of Crush Orange pop which I had at my house. Since the project was to take a picture in front of a solid background I took this in my bathroom. It is currently being remodeled so the walls and the tile are all white. I layed the pop can on the ground flat right up against the wall. I had no flash on because the light from the bathroom was enough. I then tilted the camera and zoomed on the pop can so less of the tile would show.
Composition- I arranged the photo this way because it is something so simple but it really seems to make the pop can colors stand out. I chose white as the background because the can is very bright, but the words are white and i thought they would pop out. I like how the tile in the corner is tilted with the can because of how I took the picture and it looks as though the can is on a slant. The verticle line from the tile also grabs my attention straight to the can.
Concept- The concept of this art is to simply express an object against a solid contrasting background in order to make the object stand out completley to catch the viewers eye.
