Unit 2: Muddiest Point

For Assignment 2, are we allowed to digitize 10 of our own photographs? For example, if I take 10 pictures with my digital camera of dogs at the park and then follow the instructions for digitizing them, will that fulfill the requirements of the assignment? It makes sense that a digital photograph of a dog would be a digitization of the dog as an object - but I'm not sure that's what we're supposed to be doing.
