Ten of One, Two Dozen of Another
Exercise 1: Ten of One
Take 10 unique and/or abstract photographs of 1 small subject.
The smaller the subject, the more challenging this can be. A “small subject” should not be “Kitsilano.”
Exercise 2: Two Dozen of Another
Pick a location. Stand in one spot and make 24 unique photographs while standing in the same place. You cannot move your feet.
You might hit a virtual brick wall after 10-12 shots, and that will be eye-opening in many ways. It really pushes you to be creative with your gear and surroundings.
TO SUBMIT: Post your images on your Blog. If you are in Grade 11 or 12, add a short paragraph about what you found challenging about this exercise
For part one:
