42. Still Life Toy Photographs – DUE THURSDAY BEFORE CLASS IS OVER We will look at the examples.  It’s interesting to photograph still life subjects using unexpected approaches. This takes an object out of its normal context, so that you can see it in a different light. In this case, you’re going to make a formal portrait of a toy. You will upload your best 6 photos by Thursday before class is over, with titles, in a gallery 3×1. Title your blog post “Toy Photos” Before you begin think about the following

• Do you want to convey the significance that a plaything from your childhood has for you, or will you choose a random toy and portray it in unexpected ways?
• Consider the portrait’s background. Will it provide context, color, and visual interest or will it be a neutral setting that highlights the subject?
• As you compose your image, experiment with lighting, viewpoint, balance, and emphasis to reveal the toy’s story.
