School Tradition

Building:  Memorial Union
Location:  Ames, IA
Time:  11:12am
Composition:  On axis with the wood door.  By taking the photo low to the ground, the raised texture of the Zodiac can be seen.  The tradition at ISU is that if one steps on the Zodiac, they will fail their next exam.  As seen in the image, people old and young stick to the tradition in avoiding the Zodiac.
Process:  I took four different photographs to capture the people in different positions around the Zodiac.  I then stacked and blended the four images together to give the appearance that the room was more crowded.
