Sorry it has been a while since my last post. This week was so crazy! This past week in my photography class, I was given an assignment called "Hands". This was the assignment:
"Photograph an entire roll of any one subject with a normal 50 mm lens which requires you to get close to the subject in order to fill the frame. Include a variety of angles, distances, and interpretations of this one subject. Work with the available light exploring the exposure combinations necessary in multiple settings. Bracket each scene with three shots: the indicated exposure, plus one as well as minus one exposure value. Use these to creatively enhance the subject."
For this assignment, my subject was coffee mugs/cups. I took many pictures with my film camera, so I can not post those photos on here (I may take some digital pictures of the printed pictures and post them on here later), but this was one I really liked, so I also took a picture with my digital camera. So this is my photo of the week!
I challenge you to try the same project. Pick one subject (it could be hands, feet, shoes, windows, doors, etc.) and see what creative ways you can come up with to photograph it. Be aware of lighting and try to use it to your advantage. Play around with the exposure settings on your camera. Like the assignment says: try one picture at the correct exposure, plus one exposure, and minus one exposure. It's a really good way to play around with the lighting you have to work with.
