Shoot your lunch tomorrow. One snap.

I’ll start off. Seelochnie at Henry’s in Mississauga this weekend, when I was teaching photography there, made me some food – and she brought in some truly delicious snacks for all:

Assignment “snap”

Posted in Learning by Michael Willems on September 20, 2009

Here’s an interesting assignment for pros, emerging pros and enthusiasts: Shoot in Program mode for a day.

That way, for once you are not thinking about Aperture, DOF, drag, motion blur, and such. For one day, you will be thinking about your subjects, instead of about technology. And this makes some sense; One famous wedding pro even shoots in “P”mode, I am told.

You might try this assignment in the city, for some street photography. Or at some event. Either way, it’ll likely reset some of your thinking. And perhaps even open your eyes a bit more in familiar environments.
