The roofs were steaming as sunlight hit the frost. I had to include those pictures. Shining droplets were melting and falling from the trees when I took the last image, but my camera couldn't see them. This is the block I walk from my place to the park every day. This morning it was at its best.
1) CONTRAST: Make two versions of the same image, one taken in daylight and one at night. The daylight version will be relatively flatly lit while the night version will be much more contrasty. The pari will be more interesting if you shoot them from the same angle and frame both images the same way. Shoot about a half a roll on each version.
2) SPECULARITY: Shoot the same subject twice, once using "sharp" light from a point light source (like direct sun) and again, using "soft" light from a diffuse light source (like an overcast sky). If you can't wait for changes in weather, try using a bare (uncoated) light blub for the point light source and a piece of cloth for a diffuser, or shoot in both direct sun and in shade. Shoot about half a roll on this series.
3) DIRECTION: Shoot a textured or contured subject when it is front-lit and when it is side-lit. The front lighting should emphasize overall shape (2-dimensionality) while the side lighting should emphasize texture and form (3-dimensionality). Shoot about half a roll on this series.
4) REFLECTION, SHILOUETTE, SHADOW, AND HALO LIGHT: Take a series of pictures where you exploit a reflection, a shilouette, a shadow, and halo lighting. Concentrarte on one or two series of each such subject and shoot a roll together. Work for strong graphic qualities - shots that are simple and bold.

Date: 2003-10-07 10:35 am (UTC)Select two of the following four options:
1) CONTRAST: Make two versions of the same image, one taken in daylight and one at night. The daylight version will be relatively flatly lit while the night version will be much more contrasty. The pari will be more interesting if you shoot them from the same angle and frame both images the same way. Shoot about a half a roll on each version.
