[gallery type=“rectangular” columns=“2” size=“medium” link=“none” ids=“2695,2694”] This assignment comes from Sarah Urist Green and PBS Digital’s The Art Assignment - a series that began in 2014, and has now given 60 assignments for people to try out and publish on social media.

I was trying last year to get some photos of this type of balloon that take advantage of how cosmic it looks - it turns out the effect of the black mirror was exactly what I needed.
