Final Round

This was the last round I had the privilege of being in. This was down to the last 6 contestants! Not bad. After this round, myself and one other person were eliminated leaving only Four. I had so much fun competing in this side by side with some awesome photographers!
This challenge was super hard!
Using one item from your kitchen, one item from your living room and one item from your work area, create an image that represents, one of the following emotions.
Happiness, Fear, or Anger.
Wow was that one hard. I lost an entire nights sleep trying to figure this one out. My initial idea was to go with fear. Use a knife, from my kitchen, a lamp from my living room and the doorway of my studio. I wanted to set up a bloody scene with a man holding a dripping bloody knife like his is breaking into my home. I even went to the store and bought various items to make fake blood.
However, fear just isn't me. Neither is anger. I'm a glass half full type of gal. I went a totally different direction. This image was my last in the competition. The judges didn't feel it conveyed the emotion as well as the remaining four contestants. They were probably right. And the next challenge would have totally kicked my butt so I'm not sad I was eliminated. I used a book from my living room, glass from my kitchen, and hammer from my work area.
