The last assignment of the semester is Myths and Superstitions, and I tried to finish out strong. At first it was so hard to think of myths and superstitions without being like everyone else's, but then I realized that mine would just have to be more creative and better then everyone else's.

The myth for this picture is that if you open an umbrella inside, then bad luck will follow, as demonstrated in this picture. I liked this picture a lot because it shows the myth completely, and the bad luck about to happen with the subject about to step on the gardening tool. Also, what I like about this picture is the the tone of the color and the look on the jeans and door.

The obvious myth in this picture, as described by the text, is "an apple a day keeps the Dr. away", and I feel this picture shows the myth very well. I dressed up as a doctor and i had my friend bite an apple and the actual image is the reflection in a mirror. I used my tripod and self timer for this picture, and i think it turned out well. I also left the red eyes because it makes me look evil to support that every time someone sees a doctor, that usually means something is wrong with you, but if you eat an apple a day you will be ok.

This picture is actually one part of a series. They myth is if you pick up a penny heads up, you will have good luck, but if you pick up a penny tails side up then you will have bad luck. Well, this picture is showing the tails side and bad luck. While the good luck shows a pretty girl rather then a guy. I like this picture a lot because it entertains the viewer, and that, to me, is what photography is supposed to do, catch your attention and entertain you.
