For this week I took pictures of a still life of my hockey skates. I decided to take these pictures because I thought they would be an interesting subject and I thought that I could tilt them to different, interesting perspectives. I decided to make a diptych because I had to good photos and wanted to incorporate both of them in my concentration. I took them both at a studio in my school. For the picture on the left, I tilted the picture on the table and I bent down and got an eye level picture of the skates, focusing on the front. The right picture was taken looking down on the skates, showing the laces. I think that the diptych looks week because it shows two different sides of the skate so that the viewer can visualize the entire skate as a whole. The last thing that I did was to convert both pictures to black and white, and then boost the contrast to make good values between black and white.
