    Default  the Artistic Assignment suggestion thread.  
      
      

    OK,
    Input time.

    What's anyone want to do as a topic. I've said it in multiple other threads that I want other people to post up assignments. If you want to post in here and we can figure out some sort of schedule so it's organized. Also post up any ideas for assignments you guys have in here to we can keep a list and make it a bit easier for people to start one.

    After studying that list I think the next assignment should be "ducks". Yep, ducks is where it's at. Nothing but ducks day in and day out.

    definitely not self-portraits. I don't want to be responsible for shattering everyone's monitors.


    texture would be cool. Lots of possibilities.

    yeah, eventually SPs will come up, but I'm wanting to wait for winter for those (or until I have a waterproof housing...).

    anything else other than textures then?

    Textures sounds good, lots of possibility's. I saw a picture in someones gallery that look like a cool idea for a future assignment, It was four pictures each one representing a colors red, green, blue, and yellow.

    Anyone have specific requests for the next assignment? We've been doing pretty good with getting people posting with the broader assignments, so I'd prefer to do something similar.

    I was thinking of lines, shapes, or colors.

    Thoughts?

    I"d like to see something dealing with perspective... you know, encouraging people to look at things in a different way. This could work two ways: 1) actual perspective shifts, i.e., lying down on the ground or climbing something to take pictures, or 2) looking at common/ordinary things in a different way (macro photography comes to mind for this one). To focus the topic, we could limit it to one or the other.

    a few people have mentioned they're working on something for perspective or at least have an idea they want to work on..... So I'll leave that open for a while.

    But we still need something new for this week. Anyone have a request?

    The only thing I've been thinking of is Fall/Autumn, but that's probably because its starting to get cooler here in Virginia. At the same time, not much has changed from Summer to Fall here, and I imagine the same is true in other places so it might be better to wait.

    Actually, fall colors might be a bit cheesy, but a good idea nonetheless. After all, it only happens once a year. I hope to see some good fall foliage on my way back from Ohio.

    How about the natural framing one with a side of "no crop"?

    I'd like a macro option as well so I can have an excuse to buy tubes.

    So I hear:
    Fall/Autumn x 3
    Macros
    natural framing w/ "no cropping"

    All will be done eventually as I like all 3 ideas. As for fall would this week be the best compromise? Some people are in ME and it's close to too late, turbo, you're in VA, is it fall enough yet (or by next weekend?)... I could say "fall colors" as then it's open to interpretation a bit more.

    Things are just starting to change. There's enough to work with though. I vote for "fall" vs. "fall colors".
