For this workshop I decided to bring headphones with me because I thought it would help me have more fun with it, get less bored, and more creative. I noticed that having music in my ears helped the time go by faster and made finding different angles to capture the paper at more exciting. I tried to use what we learned in class with filling the frame and layering by trying to capture people or cars or other activity in the background. I tried as many different angles as I could think of and mixed in some rule of thirds and vertical photos. I tried to play with repetition and leading lines as well. I also attempted to re-crumple up my paper when I got bored to get different pictures of the paper in formations. This helped keep the photoshoot interesting and I even got creative with sticking the paper in the hole on top of the pillar.
