1. Select a Location
Find a location that you find interesting for whatever reason.
Stop and observe.
Pay close attention to what's happening in the scene: people and what they're doing, objects, plants, buildings etc.
2. Define your "studio"
Place one foot on the ground; be mindful of this as once your foot is positioned, you are committed. For the duration of this assignment your foot anchors or rotates on this exact spot. The geometric body-length sphere around your anchor foot, defines your studio. The taller you are, the larger your studio ;)
3. Image Capture
Take 10 photographs - no more, no less, no deleting, no re-dos (honor system). Each release of the shutter counts as one image towards your collection of 10.
No cropping, so compose your image the way you intend it to look in the final picture.
Each image differs significantly from the other 9.
Assignment 5 Reflection:
This turn out to be quite the difficult assignment to find my pivot point. I originally found a different location on Mountain Home Air Force Base, but didn't feel I capture images that were as diverse. Still even at the golf course it was difficult to find different points of view and framing to capture. While I was standing in my pivot spot, I took the time to look all around me first with just my eyes, then began to look at objects and points through the lens, beginning to set up each of these shots. The added difficulty to this shot is they had to be 10 consecutive shots…no redos or deleting. I had a lot of fun taking a break from the day and coming out to the golf course to see what I could find. After this shoot, 4 retirees showed up to practice for their Tee Time and I was able to capture them separately from this assignment.
