Last "Assignment"

2008-09-08T20:45:00.000-07:00

Since we've all seem to be leading busy lives these days, this will be the last "assignment" for a while. From here on out until the month of October please post a new picture a week for us to see.

This weeks assignment is FEAR. Shoot it.

What do you think

2008-09-08T16:07:00.000-07:00

I have an idea. What do all of you think about just posting a picture a week. Sort of like a sharing post. OR in the words of Brian Tobin a Free Week, but for a while. Just post what you think.

in ten years...

2008-08-05T09:38:00.000-07:00

In ten years I will still be a photographer. Someone who has a vision and recreates that vision through the means of photography, unlike a digital artist who can recreate the same vision in photoshop. I think photographers need to make a stand and stick with what photography is: Capturing a scene or vision with a camera. If one creates images mainly by the use of photoshop, then that person should consider him/herself a digital artist but not a photographer. And I am not saying that using photoshop is a bad thing, I just think there should (and I think will in the future) be a differentiation between the two crafts.

Brian-Where are you?

2008-08-03T21:10:00.001-07:00

Sorry Lore for another surf related photo! But thats where I be.

Assignment - Where are you?

2008-07-30T11:14:00.000-07:00

This weeks assignment:

Who are you in 10 years?
What are you in 10 years?
Where are you in 10 years?

Pick one or all but it has to be one photograph, no collages / montages.

Have fun my friends!

This weeks Assignment- Recreation in your style

2008-07-15T07:32:00.000-07:00

Hey folks, sorry this assignment didn't get posted earlier, but here you go.

Recreate a famous piece of art-work. You can copy a famous painting or photograph or whatever, as long as it is some what well known. (Example: take the Mona-Lisa, and recreate that image with a photograph.)

Here are the rules: You must post a image of what you are copying, and then post your own image that is your version. And of course, it can be your interpretation, so don't be scared to change the style, look or the feel, get creative.

Alright, now go out there and redefine the world, go shoot my friends.

Assignment #1

2008-06-16T20:11:00.000-07:00

Here's the first assignment, love it or hate it....

Bliss.

Go shoot my friends....

Welcome

2008-06-16T20:04:00.001-07:00

All right boys and girls, here is the website to post your work on. By now you should have received an email asking you to sign up for this blog. Once you sign up you can log in and publish photos.

It will work like this:

1.) Every Monday a post will happen with that new assignment for the week. We will all take turns posting an assignment. The order will be:

Justin M.

Darren

James

Brian

Peat

Justin B.

Once the list has been gone through we'll start over. I'll try to send a email that reminds to think up a assignment for the week.

2.) When you have your image ready to show (no later than the following Sunday night). Simply log in and create a new post with the image. Tell us nothing more than the camera details though.

Make sure to format the title of the post as such: "Name - Assignment #1"

Once an image is posted we can all leave comments and constructive criticisms by replying to the post(s).

3.) The Rules:

a) Must be NEW work, no digging in the archives.

b) For the "professionals" in the group, NO WORK related images.

c) If your image isn't in by Sunday you now have two image to hand in the week following. Consequently, your now fair game for slacker hate mail.

If anyone has questions go ahead and email: justin *at* myersphoto.net
