You Got It

Last weekend, I was given a take-home exam to see if I could apply what Reese had taught me over the past week.  When I first read the scenarios, I thought to myself, there is nothing in my neighborhood I could take photos of!  But, to my surprise, I was able to "see" things I probably would've never seen had I not been given this test.  Below are the scenarios which I was given, my photo response and the teacher's grade.
