Relationships

For this project we had to take a picture of things or people that represent some sort of relationship. For my image, I chose to take a picture of my my cat and her mouse because she is always carrying it around. I took the photo during the day so that there was a lot of natural lighting, then printed it out on transparency paper. To create this final product, it took a lot of time and work. I've noticed that all of my prints have come out pretty grey so I made sure to put filter #3 on it for richer blacks and whites wich worked really well. I exposed my photo paper for 5 seconds at first but it needed to be just a tad darker so I exposed it for 6 which turned out well also. I had a lot of trouble with the boarders because I couldn't get it even on every side so it took me about 3 tries to get it. To fix the issue, I took black pieces of paper and put it on each side of the paper to create the best frame I could. This came out well however the paper was torn on part of it so you can see it in the bottom left corner, then at the top left corner he paper wasn't folded evenly so it's not a straight line. I'm proud of this image, especially with all of the extra work that was put into it.
