Theme - September People

September 2nd, 2015
Hey all. Hope all is well. Gonna attempt, for the month of September, to capture nothing but people. Looking to improve on a few things, mostly portrait photography, but also lighting and street photography.

Would love for others to join along. We can throw advice, ideas to each other. If anyone is interested, please feel free to join along.

This theme/challenge is for anyone. Tag your photos theme-septpeople2015

Also...post your captures here if you want. Show us what you captured.

Thanks,
Beau

I'll join you, although most of my photos have people in the anyway. Is that cheating? Are you appealing to people who don't normally photograph people?

@kiwichick Thanks Lesley. Not cheating at all. This theme is for anyone. Just something I don't do often. Was reading a couple of articles on people who have done the "100 Strangers" challenge. It's an interesting concept. Would love to try it someday. Figured this will start working me towards it.

Oh great. I've read about that too, and it does sound like an awesome experience. One day!!

@losthorizon - i might do a here-and--there as i am still scared of asking people i don't know and the ones i know are ugly divas!

@losthorizon Yours is probably great......I am not so sure about mine! ;~}

I lucked into an interesting subject today!

I really need to push myself to do more portraits - I don't think I can do the whole month, but would love to join in at least once a week. And even that scares me a little! Thanks for sharing your idea!

@glendq Please...join in. No worries. Under each photo you'll see an icon that's just 3 dots. Like this ... Press that, and a little window will appear with a line of code in it. Select the code, copy, then paste in a comment box on here. Once you post the reply, the photo will appear. Hope this helps.

Great challenge. I did it all of August and it was SO different than photographing whatever other stuff I photograph usually. So much more about moments...and no opportunities for retakes. I might sneak a few in so I don't lose my new-found boldness about shoving a camera right in someone's face!
