Assignment 9- Alphabet Photography

 This project steers you in a new direction. The goal is to find letters formed by nature, architecture, and other objects. Once you find letters, you must form a word with them.

Your assignment is to find a scripture that has been significant in your life. For example, mine is Isaiah 26:3.

" You will keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on You, because he trusts in You."

Once you have found this scripture, I want you to pick a word that represents the feelings evoked in this scripture. The word can be found with in the verse, or it can be an outside word representing the verse. The word that I would choose for this verse would either be peace or trust.

Your assignment based on the keyword is to find photographs revealing specific letters. Your final project will be a photoshop project incorporating all of the letters and the verse. More details will be explained in class.

Have fun and be creative.
