The challenge Kali gave me:
How about doing some 'Where i stand ' photos with your feet in or a top-down photo including hands , the context being the story, kind of like a macro environmental portrait.
I looked over the description of the latter in the link Kali supplied, and decided to try a really rough draft attempt. The process involves taping a cardboard shelf for the iPhone onto the ceiling. My ceilings are pretty high, so I went for the doorframe, using the 10 second timer with the single shot the camera takes. Even with 10 seconds I got caught in the moment after kicking the little one-step stool away and trying to sit down under the camera. Sheesh!
I have now downloaded the camera timer app recommended by the person who wrote the explanation. I can set the timer for longer and have it take multiple shots at those intervals. Stay tuned. (fingers crossed)
Hi Mary, I'm your get-pushed partner for this week! I especially liked your shot of "charred remains" from Dec 5th and thought I'd use it as inspiration. For your Challenge 389, how about developing it (or similar shot) to produce a purely abstract image? - really enhance the texture through angle and amount of light into the camera, and/or post-edit to accentuate the patterns and textures of an object. Hope that's ok as an idea?
Well done!
