merger photo

1. Maybe I may not be still enough and i may cause blurriness in the photo.
2. A good place to shoot these pictures on campus may be somewhere with not a lot in the background to not distract from the photo, like a wall.
3. I could be in different poses instead 0f just standing still and i could stand up and down to create levels.
4. I could wear something that will contrast with the background so the background wouldn't be distracting.
