Photo Project 1

After wandering photographically through virtual stagnant porridge I came across a book called  “50 photo projects” by Lee Frost and it made me look at things differently. The projects varied a lot and some of the ideas I had seen before but had never got around to doing, things like just going out and looking for subjects of a set colour or looking for patterns. Others involved some financial layout such as investing in one of the many toy cameras out there or digging out your old film cameras. I also had a look through Chase Jarvis’s book “The Best Camera is the one that's with you” . Taking the two together I decided to use just my Iphone  and any software I can use on it and spend a week using nothing but that phone. I had originally decided to post from phone too, but I upgraded OS and things have slightly changed to poo so using lappy instead . Anyway here are the images I took.

This was this sky that gave me idea just to use phone.

A pleasant evening at the pub perhaps.

 

A gate on my way into town .This is a place I had some ideas for an image. I will be back with “proper” camera to take some shots for that image. Watch this space.

I can be cute as well

 

I learnt a bit from these exercise its fun to just go out and shoot.  Phone photos can be fun although I need practise to free my mind from convention then i may get some thing more worth while. 

Now what shall the 2nd project be?
