Statement
This piece was part of our in class work on high key and low key photography, and ultimately this piece ended up being used for the project that went along with it. Going into it, I had no plan, but I started arranging some shells and some rope and taking pictures of each arrangement. These materials stood out to me because they made me think of the beach and I thought that overall, the rope went nicely with the shells. Of the nearly fifty pictures I took, this one ended up being my favorite, so I tweaked it just a little bit in terms of adding to the shadows, and ultimately decided on this as the final version.
