Requirement 1
The goal of this photo is to showcase the most pure and fundamental tools of a cook and it fulfills REQUIREMENT 1 because it is overexposed to the extent that it is near all white. This photo was taken using a tripod with a plastic cutting board on top of a cream colored lounge chair as the background. A timed shutter was used so that I could pose with both hands in the photo. Because this lens is adapted the aperture data is wrong. The slow shutter speed and aperture (either 2.8 or 4.0 I think) were chosen to lower the ISO and achieve an overexposed look. In post, the photo was converted to b/w and exposure adjustments were made to bring more contrast to the shadows and brighten the highlights further.
