Photo 1- Reflective Self-Portraits

Student teacher Mrs. Priya Rama, challenged the Photo 1 students in Ms. Holliday's classes to shoot Self-portraits using reflection. They were asked to consider the visual aspect of reflection as well as the internal aspects of how we reflect on ourselves. This was the first digital photography assignment for Photo 1 as they have been working with 35mm film and darkroom photography to this point. Ms. Holliday will also use this assignment as a pre-assessment to determine students' prior knowledge and abilities in digital photography. Here is the link for the album showing their work: https://picasaweb.google.com/116055350805865877454/BESTOFReflectiveSelfPortraitsPhoto1?authuser=0&feat=directlink
