"Sara Runs on Dunkin" S.Smith 2013

For this project, I figured I would like to photograph one of my favorite things, so I ran to Dunkin and got my caramel iced coffee. It was around 6:00 pm so the lighting outside was nice with the sun slowly going down. I chose to photograph the cup on my front steps because I felt like the stone was not very distracting and complimented the cup well enough. I do not like that you can see above the step because that is slightly distracting and I tried to take the pictures from exactly the same angles but they're not all perfectly the same. My goal was to show the progression of drinking my coffee because it is a routine. Out of the fifty pictures I shot, these showed that progression the best. I also played around with the curves in photoshop to give it a new effect. This is not my favorite piece I have photographed but it came out better than I expected.
