Some friends and I were at a festival on Boise State's Campus and just taking some random pictures. I noticed how this picture had a good ground level that I was able to get rid of all the people in the background and still tell that Matt was sitting on the grass.

While babysitting my nephew he wanted to play in the car, and of course have a photo shoot. I figure in this picture he was a decent amount brighter than the background that it would be easy to select him and put him onto a sold dark background.
