For this project we had 3 piles of at least 4 rocks. I added some other rocks and also a lead at the bottom for extra effect. We had to have one pile on the left side of the rule of thirds, one pile in the middle of the rule of thirds, and one pile on the right side of the rule of thirds. The first pile was in the foreground, the second was in the center, and the last pile was in the background. We had to focus on each individual pile in separate pictures and I think I did very well capturing them. I used 3 different flashlights as a light source, a white board for the background, and a black board for the bottom of the picture. The flashlights created nice shadows of the piles that added a lot of character to the pictures.
