Spring Compatibility

Celebrating the arrival of spring here in town, I decided to do this project. I used a branded purse which had some colors matching with spring blossoms. The inspiration came from my frequent looking at fashion magazines. It was cloudy which offered white soft light. But the rain was challenging as it left some of my equipment wet. It took me about three hours for both setup and shooting. Finding a good looking tree was my first barrier. I stopped by the engineering campus at my university, it has more open areas compare to the main and medical campuses.
