Waverley Camera Club

This month’s homework for those attending the beginners class on the 23rd of June is:

I want you to pick a subject, it can be whatever you like – your house, your car, a pair of socks, a roadsign, next doors cat with the runny eye, anything at all and photograph it in the best light possible.

If for some reason you do choose a pair of socks then you will be able to control the light. If you choose something outdoors then you will have to work with whatever light you get over the next couple of weeks.
Too easy! you say. To make it a bit harder I want each of you to reply to xkaishox@hotmail.com by next Monday and tell me what it is that you are going to shoot.

The main purpose of this assignment is to get you thinking about light. If you were at last Tuesday’s meeting you would have heard Bev Pascoe stress over and over how important lighting is to make a shot stand out.

I want you not to forget about composition either so whatever subject you choose I want you to shoot in both the landscape and portrait formats and use whatever compositional tools you can.

So there it is. Your assignment for this week is to choose a subject and let me know what it is by this coming Monday (the 8th).
Shoot that subject in the best possible light.
Email two shots – one in landscape format and one portrait format to:
homework@waverleycameraclub.org
Have your emails in by 7pm on Monday the 22nd of June.
Label your files with your name and then number from 1 to 2.
eg: peted01 and peted02

Most importantly: have fun doing it.
