Shutter Speed - fast
Movement - frozen
Aperture - medium
Depth of Field - deep
Light - quantity of light is small, quality of light is contrasty and direction of light is from the side.
Colour - the yellow is mellow in tone as it is shaded with black to make it more monochrome. The reflection off the stone is blue in hue so the overall frame is quite contrasty.

We set the camera to a slow shutter speed of 20 seconds, this was to give us time to manipulate the photo. Since we did have such a long shutter speed, it allowed us to capture the light in different places around the photo.
I was hoping that the shot wouldn't have shown much of my body, but i know for next time how to tweak it. Wearing all black, and having a darker work could've improved the photo. I feel for the materials and time we had the premise of the photo and what we were looking to achieve worked pretty well.
