The rule of thirds is one of those things that has been ingrained in me since I started learning about video and pictures, so this was a fun project. I had grand ideas of shooting skylines at sunset and, of course, the day I was going to shoot it was grey and overcast. So I used the grey light as a backdrop and played with the plants in my apartment. I used a macro add-on lens to a 50mm to capture the imperfections and details of the plastic butterfly. It was an added bonus that the spring draws your eyes outward. Canon T2i 50mm w/Macro, 1/200, f/7.1, ISO100
