-From Pennywise Thriftshop on Lancaster Avenue ($6.00)

-Chose this because in my high school, our founder was Catherine McCauley, a nun from Ireland and her motto was “a comfortable cup of tea” in any situation. A cup of tea was a symbol of my high school and when I applied to the school in 8th grade, the photo I used on my application, little did I know it was very symbolic to the school, so I kind of felt like me going there was meant to be, so I aways have had a connection to tea, it’s always been something I have liked. Maybe I’d like to imagine it was Catherine McCauley’s since she started the school nearby Pennywise, in Merion Station on Montgomery Avenue. This was my very first thought.

-I also like the angle of it maybe belonging to a queen or a royal family at some point in time.

-I like this cup because I think the concept of tea is sophisticated and elegant, so I thought I could tell a sophisticated story to go along with it.

-Used concepts for photography “use in an unconventional way,” “from above” like the table of food in the book, “zoom in close’ where the background objects are blurred and basically I just tried to get unique angles of the object so you can see a new side of it

-Used the filter “Chrome” for all photos
