...and then you see...

       It is dusk. A Stranger is driving around the countryside utterly lost. Eventually he comes to a tiny inlet. The place is deserted apart from a little man sitting on a rustic fence. The stranger winds his window down and asks for directions. The little man removes his peculiar battered hat, places it upside down between his knees, scratches his head, and without looking up begins.
       "It's like this," he says. "You take the first right, the third left, the second right, pass over the bridge...and then you see..." -Unknown author

Last week was the first week of school, and my first photography assignment was to take ten pictures at three different locations with three different f-stops. Our prompt was Hamster Wheel, I immediately thought I should do something that included running because the word exhaustion came to mind. The other ideas came slower to me though, I eventually thought that I should do something with burning off calories, and then I played with the shape of a wheel instead of an abstract idea. These are my nine best photos.
