A Summer Challenge
Summer is well underway. It is a time for enjoying vacation travel, family gatherings, weekend excursions, free events in the city, and days at the beach. It may be tempting to put your photography on the back burner, or it could be the perfect time to try something new.
Capture something fun on the street,
What do you shoot? Flowers? Landscapes? Portraits? Travel? Why not try something different. Shooting new subjects, different perspectives, or for a different purpose may reawaken your photographic awareness and have you rethinking exposure, lighting, lens choice, perspective, and view point.
or perhaps your favorite places to escape from the city.
Here are a few suggestions: Table top/product photography, storytelling, strangers, silhouettes, action or sports. There is nothing like the challenge of capturing a never-before-shot subject, to spark renewed inspiration.
Change your focal length or rent a new lens.
If you are not up for trying new subjects or shooting styles, perhaps you could try a new workflow, processing style, or finishing technique.
Try a different style of editing.
This challenge is to try something different, learn something new, refresh a love for something almost forgotten, attempt a challenging shot, and fall in love with photography all over again.
The challenge is not to create something remarkable, rather to see something differently.
