Title: everyday item (after)

For my everyday item I chose a doorknob. This is because that is an everyday “item” used by all. Doorknobs are used to open doors, which could lead to opportunities, lead you to where you need to go in life. You can close them as well which could be a good and or bad thing; you can close a door and leave everything behind for better or for worse. This doorknob in particular intrigued me because of how pretty it is. It looks precious as if whatever is hiding behind the door has something of value, maybe even of sentimental value. I also like how there is an old fashion keyhole which shows that you can lock the door if it is a door you wish to keep safe from others. Only you have the power to lock and unlock this door, and only you have the power to turn this doorknob in order to open the door. Some challenges I came across was choosing the right angle for this shot. During the editing processes I wanted the doorknob to look more precious, like a real diamond so I added blue which enhanced the way that the image looked. I also added some yellows to make sure the doorknob and keyhole still had that rustic gold look to them. My shutter speed was set to 1/13 and my aperture was set to 22.0 since we were indoors. My iso was set to 200.
