Digital Photo I: Weekend Work Assignment #1

Weekend Work Assignment #1


One of the absolute best ways to improve your photography is to practice!

Doing is the best way to see results. In order to help you practice your photography, I will be posting a different assignment each Friday here on this blog for you to complete over the weekend.   Be sure to post your shots on your blog before Monday so everyone can enjoy the results of these assignments when we are back in class, period 1.  Make sure to title your post "Weekend Work #1" Each Weekend Work assignment is worth 5 points in the practice work category. 

This weekend's assignment is:


Get up close to your subject.
Pick an everyday object and focus on a small part of it. Get as close as your camera will allow you to focus and shoot. Try for different angles and/or unusual lighting to add to the mystery of this tiny world. From the details of your shoe, to a fragile keepsake, to soap bubbles, there is an entire world that we often overlook because we don't get close enough.
