Today’s daily shoot assignment: The real world is in 3D. Make a photo that uses perspective or side light to create the illusion of depth.
Here is an attempt to create depth with the use of perspective.

Today’s daily shoot assignment: Make a photo that uses negative space to good effect. Give your subject room to breathe, and balance it within the frame.
Moonbeam flower is the subject for TDS assignment. Had to use neutral density filter as it was still bright when I had this shot.
Today’s daily shoot assignment: Double your art today. Make a photo of something you’ve created or crafted.
This was a tough one as I am not an artist. The closest art I have drawn is a smiley face 🙂
So I looked up Google on “how to draw a car” – and drew a car based on the instructions that I had found. Then had it stuck in front of my monitor which had the picture I had shot from our vacation to tea plantation in Munnar (India) back in 2005. I want to get the feel that the car is there on the mountainous road.
So its double art – photo+picture art 😉
Today’s daily shoot assignment: Rotate your camera today a bit and make a slightly off-angle photograph. Use the angle to emphasize your subject.
Time to experiment with gnome 😉
I think garden gnome is a great subject for photography. He is cute and has lot of characters. I had fun shooting him this evening.
Today’s daily shoot assignment: It’s summer in the Northern Hemisphere. Make a photo of a cool, refreshing drink. Go for something creative.
When I think about refreshing drink, what comes to my mind is Peanut butter banana smoothie.
I picked this recipe couple of weeks ago from Cheap Healthy Good blog (readers comments) and I should admit it’s an addiction – in a good way. This smoothie is packed with nutrition (peanut butter, banana, nutella, soy milk, & wheat germ) and calories too. But I don’t feel hungry for few hours after enjoying this velvety smoothie 😉
For this shoot, used Sigma 150mm macro lens. Used couple of white foam boards to fill in dark areas and shot this under natural lighting from the windows.
Today’s daily shoot assignment: Make a photograph that emphasizes a change in texture: smooth/rough, soft/hard, shiny/dull, etc.
Decided to shoot my daughter’s (old) faux straw bag for this assignment as I like the twist & turn pattern and really like the texture on this.
Today’s daily shoot assignment: Ads promote removing wrinkles, but they often add character. Make a photo of something wrinkled, crinkled, or folded.
When I saw this assignment this AM what came to my mind was the Laughing Buddha – I know he doesn’t mind his wrinkles as he is happy and smiling all the time 🙂
Used the technique I learnt from yesterday’s TDS assignment (dreamy capture) for this shot. Used my Sigma zoom lens and shot this at its wide aperture setting to create sort of dream like effect.
And today is 200th day since I started this Photo 365 project – YAY!
Thanks everyone (that would be you) for visiting my blog post and taking time to add your wonderful comments to my blog posts – your comments are real supportive and gives me the inspiration to keep going on this project.
Also, congrats and good luck to my fellow photogs who are on their 200th day of this project as well.
We will keep going, as we are almost there.
Today’s daily shoot assignment: Sunday Challenge: Compose an image that has a soft and dreamy look today, and make a photograph.
That’s one of our hydrangea bush in our backyard after morning rain. I think rain brings our beauty in blooms and there always seems to be a color pop in the garden just after rain.
When I saw the assignment this AM, I knew I want to use soft focus filter to create the dreamy effect. With rain this AM, things worked out pretty well for this assignment shoot. I stacked soft-focus filter over UV filter for this shot.
I really like the way this shot turned out. With dark areas in the bush, I feel there is a wonderful depth and sharpness on the leaves – despite using soft focus filter.
Today’s daily shoot assignment: Find something that’s out of context today, natural or staged, and make a photograph.
That’s weed b/w cracks on our concrete slab patio. I remember seeing the weed growing there about a week ago but left it to grow as I want to shoot this – perhaps, I know this TDS assignment coming 😉
