50/50

Week 8 of the 2014 challenge ran from the 16/2/14 till the 22/2/14.

The theme was 50/50.

Straightforward theme to simply take shot of the subject in only 50% of the shot. Only problem was it had to be inside. So I broke the rules a couple of times, because quite honestly, I had no ideas for inside and needed to take camera out of the house.

Yellow

Week 7 of the 2014 challenge ran from the 9/2/14 till the 15/2/14.

The theme was Yellow.

I really hated this week, I still took part but I really hated the theme. You would think with the theme being yellow, it would be a simple colour week, but it wasn't. The theme instead bordered into graphic design. We were requested to produce photos for a book cover of a romantic murder mystery and Yellow was the title of the book. It was down to come up with the story if we wanted to. Now I am not a fan of these sort of books and looking at book covers was of no help as most of it was graphic design not a photo. So instead I decided to concentrate on the actual colour, rather than the brief itself, by using the yellow sash of my daughter's sari throughout the week. Not completely happy with the photos, most are just the best of a bad bunch I took those days. However, I am happy with how the yellow popped in each photo.

Taken for Granted

Week 6 of the 2014 challenge ran from the 2/2/14 till the 8/2/14.

The theme was Taken for Granted.

The aim of the theme was to photograph mundane everyday objects that we take for granted in an interesting way. Immediately I thought I would be stuck indoors taking shots, but it could be anything, anywhere. Admittedly, I am not completely happy with every shot I too, especially the last shot of the week, but sadly I did not have as much time as I would have liked to go out and get the shots I wanted.

How I See It.....

Week 5 of the 2014 challenge ran from the 26/1/14 till the 1/2/14.

The theme was How I See It.

The general idea of the theme was recreate a shot in our own personal style. We given seven shots (one for each day) which we were interpret and recreate. The point of this theme was not about recreating exactly what the shot was but to use it as inspiration. I was not impressed by the theme to begin with, but I have managed to complete the week happy with my shots. Not all shots I was able to recreate as I did not have what was needed so I created a shot, which I felt represented something similar to the original shot.

The photos that follow will be posted by day as normal, but will have two shots, the top one will be the shot I was asked to recreate and the bottom shot will be my interpretation.
