Requirements 1 & 4
This photograph of a lone leaf satisfies requirements 1 and 4, "Focus on the foreground" and "Plants". I like this picture because it was the only leaves existing on this single branch, and I felt like it symbolized new growth now that the season is slowly starting to get warmer. In order to take this shot, I focused on the leaves itself with a lower aperture of f/5.6, in order to blur most of the background out in order to highlight the object in the photo. I lowered the ISO in order to reduce the exposure because the leaves were in the direct light and I did not want the picture to look "washed out". I also used lightroom for basic processing, such as increasing clarity and increasing temperature for the warmer tones.
