Just for Fun if You're Looking for Inspiration

May 21st, 2020
As we head into another week of lockdown you may be wondering what to shoot next if you're still housebound. My photo club has been un-gathering (that's gathering without actually getting together!) once a month with themes that we shoot at our home and then share on our website and in our newsletter. This month's prompt was "The Junk Drawer". Members could shoot the entire drawer or take out bits and pieces of it to capture in camera. They also had the option to process their picture or not.

At the prompting of Katy @grammyn and Joy @walks@7 who thought this might be a theme our 365 friends would enjoy, I'm sharing one of my shots and inviting you to shoot your junk drawer too! This is not a challenge or a competition- it's just a spot to let something you'd rather not look at become useful and inspire you!

Feel free to share your results below and tag your shot

junkdrawer

so others can see how many of us were able to find an interesting shot from all those little odds and ends that we collect and put into that catch-all drawer.

Now there is a cool idea and it can be combined with Junko's technique challenge of flat-lay that is ending on 31st May ( technique-flatlay )

Thanks Joy, Katy, Jackie, Sally and Annie! I have another drawer that could fit the bill here so I shall play around with some its "bounty" tomorrow.

You have some interesting things in that drawer Annie!

I did do one of my shots as a flat lay Sally. You're right- the items work really well as a flat lay.

We have several junk drawers. Here is the kitchen junk drawer. Thanks for inspiration.

Thanks. It was fun to pick an inside subject (for me...I've been doing flowers all May.)
