Photo Assignment 1

I have had some interest in my Photo Assignment idea.  What I think would work best is for us to start and, as we get started, everyone can share the link and photos with others.  Hopefully this will grow!

The Assignment:

(1) Take some pictures based on the theme.  Everyone will choose their top one or two favorite pictures and email them to me.  I will then upload them (so that others don't know who submitted each photo).

Photos MUST BE taken within the assignment time period.  No pictures that had been taken a month ago that you love and think would go well with the assignment.  This can't be a learning experience if you aren't directly participating in this way.

(2) Once the photos have been uploaded, each person will need to provide one critique on a photo.  I will provide a better description on how to critique photos.

(3) After each assignment, everyone can look at the site and see what was said about his/her photos and hopefully will be able to take a lot from this.  The next assignment will be posted shortly after and we will start over so that everyone can work on the places where they were critiqued.

Our First Topic:

"A Few of my Favorite Things"  DUE: May 1st no later than 12:00pm (noon)

I thought I would start off with something relatively easy.  Instead of assigning a certain subject matter, I want everyone to just go out and take pictures of some of your favorite things!  This is limitless (and we won't even know if this is really one of your favorite things anyway).  Remember to keep in mind any pointers I may post up here when you are taking pictures.  I plan to make a small post after this one with a few tips and pointers.

Email photos to info@pbkpix.com
