Practice eliminating distracting backgrounds in your photographs. In this project, you will submit three sets of before and after pictures that show how you eliminated a distracting background. To do this, take one photograph of a person, object, or scene with a distracting background. Then, photograph the same subject, but compose the photograph so that you’ve reduced the distracting background using one of the techniques that we discussed.

Insert your before and after photographs into a word processing file. Include three sets of before and after photographs (six photographs total). Answer the following questions for each set of before and after photographs:

What are the distracting background elements in the “before” photograph?
What technique did you use to create a better background in the “after” photograph?
