Masculinity and Feminitiy

First assignment for my new photography class was to capture a masculine element and a feminine element within the same photo. It took me awhile to figure out what I wanted to do with this project, in fact I used a couple rolls up on just random stuff trying to work out how to use my camera and hoping I would stumble upon some cool photos. Finally, I took a trip down to 16th Street Mall and I found the awesome new public art project happening down there. Every block had a piano painted with a different theme! I immediately connected the masculine piano with the feminine way they were painted.

This photograph is by far my favorite. My only regret with this project is the lighting I shot in was not the best. But I think I learned my lesson for next time!
