Skateboarders

This "Dreams Of Flying" image is of two skateboarders, Yuta and Elvis, grinding on a metal bar. I used a tarp as the background, and a swimming noodle as the metal bar. To make this photo better, I would have straightened the tarp out more to prevent any creases, which was hard to do with the wind. I liked how their expressions both looked like they were having a really good time. 

Suicide

This image, called Suicide, is of Yuta jumping off a building into the night sky. My inspiration for this image was the feeling of freedom, and immortality, like anything was possible, and do-able. I used a sheet in the back to make it look more like the sky, and I used a little doll house for the building. I could have made less creases in the sheet to make it look more realistic, and I could have made the house a little more obvious rather than being tucked away in the corner. I liked how it looks a little magical, and really makes you look twice to determine what is happening in the photo. 

 Upside-down Tight Rope

This photo is of my three friends walking upside down on a tight rope. We used hockey sticks from the gym and joined them together to make it look like a rope line, and we moved Julie and Nicole's hair over their head to make it look like they were hanging upside down. I played with the background a bit to make it more intriguing and realistic. To make the photo better, I should have made Chris's hood hang down so it looks like he was upside down, and I could have found and actual rope for the tight rope instead of hockey sticks.
