Your Assignment: "Tell a Story" - create a set of 3 to 5 prints that tell the story of a thing or place (No pictures of pictures please, no posters, original photographs only.)
For example your photos could could be a collection of interesting doors (or windows) on a certain street you know of, or they could be of your Fathers tools photographed in dramatic lighting, or on a wall in his garage. You could focus on different photos of your Aunt's collection of vintage depression glass pieces, or just make the story about interesting shadows. Try to capture details others may not notice, but you do.
(please-no full faces can be recognizable, for instance a single eye would be fine
