Egg Project
The objective of this egg project was to take a normal egg and open our mind to all the different ways we could photograph it. We needed to give the inanimate object a sense of life. We could of photographed the egg in any way that we wanted. It took me a little bit of time to decide what I wanted to do with my egg. Then it hit me that I should take one of my favorite books and incorporate the egg into my book. So I took my favorite book, The Red Queen, and opened it to about the middle so that it would lay flat and even. I positioned the egg a little bit above the center of the book and used auto focus so that the egg and the words close to it were in focus the most. After I captured a couple of pictures I decided on the best one and put it through Photoshop. I added a little bit of shadows to give it more of a real life effect. I really enjoyed taking photos of eggs. I think if I were to retake this picture again, I would dye the egg in a color so that it really stands out from the book and gives it some life.
