Photography [6/14]

Veronica was sadly coffee-less this morning, as last night had been so busy at work and she had been running late to make it to the classroom on time.

"Good morning," she greeted once everyone had arrived. She frowned when she noted that Nadia wasn't there. "I know the syllabi I gave you at the beginning of the semester said we'd be doing a section on Fashion Photograhy this week, but given the unexpected trip to Washington, D.C. this weekend, I decided to switch things up and teach you about Documentary Photography."

She gave a very brief, but informative lecture on the subject.

"Now, you can spend some time in the darkroom, developing your photos. Don't forget that this Friday is the School Art Fair and I'd love to see you all submit something. If you don't have anything you like yet, I can arrange for the darkroom to be open tomorrow for you."

After the darkroom, they returned to the classroom.

"Let's brainstorm on this week's prompts," Veronica said. "They are Red, Sparkly, and Fire."

Once the brainstorming session was over, she grinned. "Good job today guys. I hope to see you all on Friday at the Art Fair and don't forget about the field trip on Sunday. Bel and Cameron, could I talk to you guys for a minute please?"


[Long note today: remember that post I made two weeks ago about my office move? That's finally happening tomorrow, so I'll be offline from around 1pm EST until I get home from work (which may be a little later than my usual 5:30 EST if I'm not done with my last minute packing). I'll pick up any pings at that time.]

As promised, Cameron had also taken last week's pictures. He had combined 'Tree, Water and Joy' in a series of pictures of the swing he'd put up near the dorms. The pictures were taken in the rain from various angles (some even with him inside the tree) and most of them had a banana on the swing.

For this week's prompt, he'd taken one of a plane for 'bird', and empty water bottle with a banana beside it for 'air' and a bowl of berries with a banana in the middle.

Cameron smiled. "Do you think I could off a banana theme at the fair?"

"True, but then I don't think anyone beside you and me even know about its existance," he pointed out. "I could of course be sneaky and replace the banana with a pineapple. Everyone knows the Secret Pineapple Society is harmless."

"Hey, a pineapple looks pretty ruthless and spikey," Cameron argued.

"Yeah, I heard they're trying to design a new kind that would actually be red inside. So far, they've only managed to get to orange."

Cameron paused and stared at his pictures. "No one beside you and Molly have seen any of these. I might have to buy your ssecrecy."

"Yes, I do," he grinned. "I thought maybe you might want to get creative in your demands."

"That's okay, it makes life easier for me," Cameron assured her.
