Hi Sylvia I see we are Get Pushed partners this week. How about one or all of these:
1) ICM (intentional camera movement)
2) a still life of 5 objects that mean something to you
3) Deception/ambiguity - a photo that is not as it seems

[Sylvia du Toit]

@alinz Hi Ali sound good and I will try my best. Love the idea that I can do it at home. It is quite hard to do assignments away from home due to my husbands illness. Thanks again.

[summerfield]

aces! i love this, this is so dreamy, sylvia. how did you do the soft focus?

[Sylvia du Toit]

Ha ha so easy. A lady stocking over the lens. S0 easy/stupid. There is other techniques also, like a big plastic spoon with wholes in used in the kitchen. You attach it to a lens protector. Did not try this, but still want to.
