Assignment 4

(Yes, assignment 3 isn't posted yet. My mac is in the shop and the initial diagnosis is a fried hard drive. Most affected part? documents and photos. Damn it.)

Reflections and shadows. Choose your best 5. No editing.

Assignment 3

Pick a color and then take pictures of anything you like as long as it is your chosen color. Pick your top 5 and post. As always, no editing in photoshop or other imaging software.

Due: Monday, August 10

Not my best work

It was a long and somewhat difficult week, so I did not give this assignment as much time or attention as I should have.

This would be much more fun if it came on an exploding tape :-p

The Next Assignment:

Due: August 3

Share up to 10 photos that:

freeze motion and convey motion

You need to do both, but not in the same photo

And stick with the same rules as last time, no tweaking in Photoshop. That keeps the playing field level and helps everyone shoot more carefully.

I'm not a Heels fan but...

Favorite 3:

The rest:

First Assignment

Take 36 different photos of a chair — only 36 exposures. Share all 36 photos, and choose your favorite 3 and share those separately (or at the top of your entry or something).

No retouching, no messing, no funny business — WYSIWYG. (What you see is what you get.)

Why this blog?

Some friends of mine on a message board I frequent decided to do some photo "classes." Since I take tons of pictures, but they aren't that great, I thought this would be an excellent opportunity to improve myself. Not to mention I need another hobby!
