Assignments

Assignments are like contests, but are not judged. When taking your photos, it is important to write down your camera settings, the lighting conditions, how you set it up, and so on. The purpose of the assignments is to go outside of your comfort zone and try new things, so please submit only photos that you took purposely for the assignment.

Please use the contest submission recipe to submit photos anytime before the deadline.

What are “Textures” There thousands of possibilities. Ripples on water. Wrinkles on your Grandfathers forehead. The bark on a tree. The hairs on a caterpillar. Perspiration on an athlete’s brow. Grass – Fur – Bubbles – Pebbles on a beach ……

April 7 2010 - Emotions

What are “emotions”? It could be the expression of fear on the face of a child about to be vaccinated. It could be the gleam in the eyes of a lover. It could be the expressions of frustration shown by someone trying to put together an Ikea product. It could be the smile evoked by finding a lost item.

The opportunities are boundless.

January 6 2010 - Light

What is “light”? It could be a balloon or a chicken feather. It could be the beam from a flashlight on a mouse. It could the illumination from a candle floating on a pool of water.
