Shoot Without Looking #7 Starts NOW (add a bit of red)

October 7th, 2017
Thank you to everyone who took part in the last SWOL - shoot without looking - and those who took the time to vote!

The Shoot Without Looking challenge was started by Kathy @kathyboyles. She describes it as follows: 'This is a fun challenge where luck followed by creativity produces your entry. The idea is to take a photo without looking through the lens of the camera, then produce something interesting from the result.'

The original shot (without looking) must be taken within the time frame of the challenge, but overlays and other material can come from any time. Cropping of the shot without looking is discouraged. Perfection is not the point. Interest and creativity is. You can enter as many times as you like.

Please label your entries: swol-7

The Challenge starts today - 7th October and runs until 5pm GMT October 30th

Personally, I like to shoot from the hip in street photography (sometimes it works & sometimes is doesn't!) or taking photos by randomly waving the camera about with a longer shutter speed ...

If you would like a little extra challenge for SWOL-7, try taking a shot that has a bit of red in it - not compulsary, but it might help you pick a subject!

Feel free to post your images here to encourage others.

I took this today in Liverpool. Shot from the hip (as he did look rather scary!). I assume he was going to Livverpool HorrorCon (well I HOPE he was!)

Only 4 entries so far on this one folks.
Give it a go - wave your camera around randomly & see what you get, set up a scene but then don't look through the viewfinder to shoot, go outside & shoot from the hip, play with longer shutter speeds .... including red was only a suggestion & it's not compulsary :)
