Assignment #20: It's so Surreal! (The Final Photo)
Reflection: The concept behind this picture is that there is always the good in people yet everyone has a dark past so that is shown through the yin yang and the darkness of the eye. I achieved this by taking a picture of my sister's eye in the golden hour and cropped it. Then, I used the brush tool in Photoshop and colored the white of the eye (other than the iris) in black to show that everyone has nobody is perfect and everyone has something going on in their lives. The yin yang in the pupil was so difficult to do that I had my uncle who is an engineer at Cisco to help me for over an hour to get it the way it is now. This was a very difficult assignment and wish I knew some tools ahead of time so I wouldn't need so much help. This photo was inspired by the eye photo in my original ideas, but this shows what every human being is like: good or bad, sad or happy, etc.

Your white balance appears to be off in these - in particular, the top0 image. I appreciate the idea of these but where is the story you talked about? Shooting the words (which definitely correspond to the book by the same name) may not be enough when looking at the images. Also, what is the "eat" image about? Why is it a depiction of that word?
