Photography Ideas??
I’m a senior in high school and I am taking Adv. Photography. I’m very excited but the teacher has no lesson plan for my me and my friend. She will be teaching the beginner students. She told us we are pretty much on our own. We must decide what our projects will be and tell her beforehand. Yet, I have never taken photography with her (I took it with another teacher).
Since I don’t know what she wants, I guess I need a list of ideas and themes and projects…anything that we could do, two people by themselves. Interesting things to shoot that will take time and effort. We both have Canon digital cameras that we own personally and the use of a darkroom. But we will use the digital cameras mostly….
All ideas are appreciated, but the best of course will be rewarded!!!
Thanks much!
Landscape shots are always nice; you could try to take pictures of the same shot at different times of day or over the course of a few weeks to show seasonal changes.
You could also try candid shots of people doing random activities; I’ve always loved shots like this in black and white. Animal life is difficult, but attainable.
Another cool thing I’ve always liked — if you live in or near a city with tall buildings, try standing on the street and taking shots upwards, as though you were tilting your head way back to look at the tops of the skyscrapers. Or take some pictures near a highway at night, without a motion-fix on, so that the headlights blur together.
Play around with lights and colors too, once you’ve taken your shots and are editing them. You never know what kind of cool things you’ll end up with.
