For my second attempt, I took a picture of a yield sign. Why, you may ask, did I choose to take a picture of a yield sign? Well, I chose to take a picture of a yield sign because I just missed the fireworks and elephants parade that had marched down the road, and this yield sign was the next best thing. This photo, again, has poor resoution and does not show anything truly exciting or different, but I believe it does have better qualities than my first attempt. The photo follows the rule of thirds very well, with all horizontal and vertical thirds holding distinct features of the photo. The photo also utilizes good foreground, a midground, and a prominent background, Elkton Hall and Denton Hall. This picture shows a wider variety of color, while keeping the good color balance, exposure, and contrast. It also provides a unique angle of approach, much like the last photo, from behind the car turning into the UMD campus. I know this picture may seem somewhat boring, but I prefer taking these pictures over ones of exciting car crashes; after all, boring is normally better than awful.
