Close up Photos

   In this assignment we were suppose to take pictures like Imogen Cunningham and get really close on your subject and have the rest of the picture blurry. I had my camera set for aperture priority and had it on the smallest number possible so it created a shallow depth of field. For my first picture I captured pancakes being made and had on of them in focus while the others are blurry. The second photo I took was outside of the school of a single flower rising above all of the other flowers as you can see the school, the flag posts, and some of the other flowers in the background. The last picture I have was taken during class of the bouquet of flowers. I got as close to the white flower as I could and focused on it so the rest of the flowers were slightly blurry and it came out okay. It was very interesting trying to take pictures like Imogen Cunningham's and I enjoyed the project.
