Your Turn

Once you have completed the tutorials photos, it is now your turn. This year we want to do an Instagram campaign about The MET. The theme is "Why I love The MET" Your assignment is to take 5 images that show what you love about The MET. THE PHOTOS MUST BE OF OBJECTS NOT PEOPLE. You might take a photo of your lunch, or book in the library, or your iPad.

Each photo must be:

1. cropped square
2. filtered (make them look really cool)
3. have "Why I love The MET" written on the photo.

Good luck.
