Portraits and Self Portraits Intro

1. Experiment with lighting and shadows.
2. Experiment with the subject's expressions and emotions.
3. Get close to your subject.

I like this portrait because the background is simple, but not just a plain wall and I like the pop of color from the plant.

I will take both of my portraits of my two friends around my neighborhood and in the greenbelt behind my house. I think what will make the shoot the most successful will be the time of day I do it and the lighting. I also think finding a simple but not boring background will make it successful.

Club stacking is a practice used by candidates who fill political clubs with their supporters to win endorsements. 4. bars and restaurants 5. $250 million. I have not seen it yet. Long Response:    Recently, many school districts have been converting to a four day long school week. To make up for the lost day, schools are adding an hour to each of the four remaining days. Certain school districts in Colorado have switched to four day weeks in order to save money, boost attendance, and attract more teachers.    Advantages to a four day week are that it saves money and helps recruit teachers in rural area school districts, however the shorter week may cause problems for lower income families.
