The camera I used to do my photographs
The camera I used to do my images was a Nikon SLR Camera.
My idea behind my images
The idea for my images was See No Evil Hear No Evil Speak No Evil I came up with the idea myself because I wanted to do something different with my portraits instead of doing the same as everyone else.  
Photographer behind my idea
The photographer behind my idea was Terry Richardson because he has done a similar thing with some of his portrait photos were he asks the the model to pose with their hands over their ears or eyes and mouth and looks straight at the camera.
Problems with my photographs
I lost my SD Card over the Christmas Holidays and I had to wait till I got back to uni and get them again to send them off to get printed.
