I have an idea hopping around in my head since a few weeks.

Many of you out there love Photography.
So do I.

Many of you say “Yeah, but I want to / need to get better / do more".
So do I.

Now, my plan is to do every few weeks a new assignment.
Like collecting all kinds of information on a certain Photography subject and do a shooting

  • session on it.
    Spread some linklove on this and give each other feedback.

    Anyone interested to join?

    If so let’s make this post a brain storming for ideas for assignments.

    Some quick ones that pop in my mind:

    Ideas? Suggestions?

    First assignment - Outdoor portraiture - Start March 28th / End April 11th

    Note: Even if the assignment is over - you can still check out the links and information and work on it if you like the theme.
    Leave a comment with the link and I will check it out :)

    Good subjects.
    I've been willing myself to do some macro photography. Currently limited by my lens collection which are not designed for macro work (Your p&s should be great for macro work though).
    To do good macro work, try to build yourself a lightbox. It's a good exercise in controlling light as well.

    Or if you go to the City (opposite Muthana complex, and in line with Jashanmal stores), there are 2 photo shops that sell foldable light boxes.

    I love the idea - but it's always the execution for me that's the problem, well it's the time...I have none and then when I think I might have some, I'm usually watching all the kids and packaging them up is a pain...

    But you keep posting the weekly theme and I'll try to get one...lol

    I like the idea.

    Some friends of mine and I have started doing a monthly photography challenge, where you have a list of things to shoot, and you go out and be creative. I'm happy to share it with anyone else who is interested!

    I'm a point-and-shoot girl, myself, but I'll be happy to see what other people come up with.

    This is a great idea, I may sit this first one out, I'm thinking, but I can see myself jumping in and playing too. :)

    Damn.. Let me see what I can do! As you know I'm doing an internship so I don't have that much time! But I'll try to fix something! :)
