Today’s daily shoot assignment: Some carry a talisman, amulet, “lucky charm”, or just a comforting thing in our pocket. What do you carry?
What do I carry in my pocket?
No talisman, amulet, or “lucky charm” for me….Nothing interesting 😉
I had fun with this shot though. I really liked setting this up for TDS assignment shot. Used couple of white boards to fill in the shadows and used natural window lighting for this shot.
Today’s daily shoot assignment: Make a photo of two complementary objects arranged in a pleasing composition, one large and one small.
Three is better that two, right? How about three complementary objects 😉
We love cast iron pan and that’s the subject for TDS: Complementary Objects assignment.
Today’s daily shoot assignment: Showcase the beauty of living foliage! Make a photo of a single leaf or an entire “greenscape” today.
Hmm..it’s definitely not a living foliage. I didn’t realize it has to be “living” foliage until this evening when I was getting ready to post. Well, that’s my shot for TDS: Foliage assignment 😉
Had this shot while waiting for my daughter to return from her chess club meet.
Saw this fallen leaf atop my car roof, and shot this by holding the leaf against the Sun’s rays (falling through the tree branches) with one hand while holding/shooting with the camera on the other hand.
Today’s daily shoot assignment: Preparing or eating food is a rhythmic part of life. Make a photo of a meal you prepared and ate today.
Well it’s not a homemade pizza..not a Digiorno either 😉
It’s a Home Run frozen pizza from Costco. That’s what was for dinner tonight.
I had few minutes for this shot before enjoying this cheesy pizza with the family.
Today’s daily shoot assignment: Hard shadows can emphasize texture and edges. Find a scene lit with hard shadows today and make a photo.
Weekdays are getting real busy these days with outside school activities for my daughter. I had about 30 minutes window this evening before leaving home to pick up my daughter. So had to come up with something real quick for TDS shot.
It turned out to be a rainy, and overcast day here in St. Louis – so I ended up doing my shot indoors.
Picked the simple subject of silverware and used window lighting for this shot. To produce harsh shadows used my daughter’s take home folder to block light on the subject and increased the exposure time.
I like the way it turned out for this post 🙂
Today’s daily shoot assignment: Use a door or window as a framing device to contain a smaller scene today.
Kitchen window – that’s my subject for TDS:Framing assignment.
Bonus picture for TDS:Frame assignment.
As I was trying to see if I could make use my daughter’s old doll house for TDS assignment, my little boy was curious to see what I was doing. Shot this from the other side of the doll house. Making him to stay in a place was a tough job though – had to convince him with a gummy for this shot;)
Although not a perfect frame, I kind of like this shot.
Today’s daily shoot assignment: Make a photograph of a path, sidewalk, trail, or road today and post it. Lead our eye through the scene.
I waited too long for today’s shot. By the time I got to do the shot of the sidewalk, there wasn’t mucht light. So had to bump up the ISO, then on PS raw – had to increase the exposure to +1.75 and ended up with a grainy shot 😉
Lesson learnt – don’t wait until the 11th hour for your shot.
Todays daily shoot assignment: Play with scale today. Make a photo of something small that looks huge.
Fun TDS assignment. Used my little boy’s digger toy for this assignment. We had some landscape stone from our last landscaping project and used those for this set-up.
Initially I had trouble shooting the subject to look huge – I was shooting real close with the zoom lens at its wide end and later figured I had to shoot at low angle to make the subject look huge.
Todays daily shoot assignment: Plastic or glass, make a photo of a bottle or grouping of bottles today and post it.
Glass is my choice for TDS assignment.
One of our friend had gifted these beautiful, hand painted glass long time ago. When I saw the TDS assignment this morning, I knew my subject for todays post. Further it’s an opportunity to use my Sigma macro lens 😉
Shot this using Sigma 150mm macro lens @f/5.6 using window lighting. I love the colors/shapes of these glass pieces.
