  • Photo Challenge Friday: Week 8: Textures and Patterns

    This week I had to photograph Textures and Patterns and it took me back to a time when rather than ordering photo books off Photobox I used to order photos and buy patterned paper from Hobbycraft. So for this challenge I decided to take a picture of one of them because it brings me back to an old creative hobby of mine, making scrapbooks of my photos. I chose this idea because it showcases my early days of displaying my photographs.

     

    My Week 9 Challenge is going to be to shoot Organic Shapes. This means shooting anything that is created by nature. I think I will have fun with this challenge because nature is full of endless possibilities.

  • Photo Challenge Friday Week 7: Numbers

    My challenge for this week was Numbers.  

    My initial idea was to go out and photograph doors and use the numbers on the doors as a metaphor by stating that life presents plenty of opportunities and all you need to do is pick a number and go through that door. But I was working a lot so I actually took inspiration from the card and decided that my cocktail jigger would work in a different way. My idea is that life is measured in numbers and it doesn’t matter how far you fill the jigger as long as you have a number of things to keep you content so this one is titled ‘the measure of contentment’

    Then it came time to choose my challenge for week eight and card picking time is my favourite part as i never know what the next challenge brings but the result of each challenge is based on how much free time I have in that week and this week I needed a bit of quick thinking to complete the challenge. 
    So My week 8 challenge is to shoot textures and patterns. We see textures and patterns in everything but we don’t always deem them as something we generally photograph.
