Hi Maxxine,
Since you are one of the better students I’d like to push you a little harder here.
Your images are not quite as simple and elegant as they could be for this assignment.
I would like you to re-shoot this one.
Here are a couple examples of a similar subject with a different approach:

Notice how the frame is filled and there is almost nothing extraneous?
Please try this one again.
Thank you!
