A Concentration of Images

Your challenge: Create a concentration of 25 photos..

These photos should be all along a common theme. Here's a really awesome concentration by photographer Wes Naman. He scotch tapped all his subjects faces!

There's more if you click the link above!

This is a very specific concentration- you could do something more vague, like human emotions (show someone holding hands, someone crying, 2 people playing...)

Your 25 photos are due MONDAY, April 1st.

Remember, you may have to take WAY more than 25 photos in order to get the 25 good photos you want to submit.

If you are going to need to borrow a camera outside of class time, you will need to sign one out, for one night only, please plan ahead.
