SUMMERTIME – AND THE LIVIN’ IS EASY

NOTE: THIS IS ALSO A “FREE WEEK” SO YOU CAN CHOOSE TO DO ANY OF THREE THINGS:

ONE:
You can redo a previous assignment that you feel you can do a whole lot better.
One assignment.

TWO:
You can do an assignment you missed and get closer to be caught up.
One assignment.

THREE:
You can do this “summertime” shoot.

There are not many parameters other than this shot should be an iconic “summer” shot with YOUR OWN TWIST.

Don’t go shoot a swimming pool, or some swim fins, or a melting ice cream shot… tell me a story.

In fact, you can submit up to three images to tell your “summertime story”.

JUST BECAUSE IT HAS NO ‘RULES’ DOESN’T MEAN IT CAN BE ‘MAILED IN’… NO WAY. I WANT A KILLER, BRILLIANT, AWESOME, INCREDIBLE IMAGE THAT PULLS ME INTO YOUR SUMMERTIME!

I may just find a tree to park my bike under… and have a beer.

What constitutes summer for you?

For me;

flowers
swimming
camping
hot days
hot nights
burgers on the grill
motorcycling through the mountains
eating late
ice cream
fireworks
road trip
backyard hangouts with the grill
sunsets
bright skies
summer rain
riding my bicycle early in the morning
walking in the dark

I took two minutes to write this list up. I just free associated and wrote them down.

Now let’s look at different camera choices I can make;

hyper color
muted color
telephoto POV
wide-angle POV
high POV
low POV
natural light
strobe light
strobes and natural light
location
studio
environmental
black and white
collage
diptych
story
hero shot
people shot
motion (like on a bike)

There are probably dozens more, but this took me one minute.

Putting them together is the next step.
