Assignment 52: "Fine Art" -- Think about what would you might hang on your wall
This was a very interesting question to think about, particularly since I'm likely to be consolidating the art that now hangs in two houses into one house -- the house that's mostly windows. I didn't really come up with any useful answers, but enjoyed trying to define what aspects make me want to keep looking at an image, even on a daily basis, & what I prefer, as far as effect on my mood & outlook from the things that surround me.
The light in this one is so serene -- I'm sure it would make me happy if it hung on my wall. Though I think I do prefer a little more edginess for things I'd keep on the wall.
Active Assignment Weekly - Surrealism.
Wow - this is a tough assignment as I can't do double exposure with my camera, and I don't have Photoshop or any such fancy thing. So, I have played about with what I have.
WIT:
I took some shots of my hand in front of the TV screen during whatever happened to be on - it was a movie of some sort. I had to go with what came up. Then, in PP I used the Polar Co-ordinates application.
Assignment 52 - Silhouettes
I'm fortunate to be in Georgia this week for this assignment, with fabulous light & horizons for silhouette shots. Since this is a trip to visit Po's son, Hibou, at the field trial pro's where he's in training, I'm indulging in a bunch of dog silhouettes. Here's yet another:
These are all my past assignments, which were done during the time when I was doing my MSc degree at the Oxford Uni.
Can't carry them home, so, I'd rather store them here yeah?
For Strobist Lighting 102
Assignment 1 - Cooking Light
430EX in shoot-thru umbrella to camera left at 1/4 power. 430EX with CTS gel aimed at wall at 1/16 power, 70mm zoom. Shot in manual. Triggered with an ST-E2.
The assignment: "circles." I snuck into the science teachers' lounge and arranged these on a table, then snapped. I don't think it turned out very well. I feel like there should be more beakers, or something. Hmm...
For a strobist assignment, pretty boring but you've got to start somewhere. Besides, I like knives . . . did I just say that out loud??
Details: 430EX lighting a large white card almost directly behind the knife to get top reflection, SB-22s with 2 CTO gels into umbrella at camera left. It is sitting on a gray textured tile that looks much more interesting with the gels. Both strobes on very temperamental gadget infinity V2 triggers.
Every summer I see this car around town and something inside me longs to be its owner. I don’t know why- I guess it reminds me of some sort of super hero like cat woman or super girl. I imagined myself driving around town looking really cool until I showed it to my friends and family. They all had one thing to say- that car is hideous! I was shocked and deflated. I thought I had really cool taste and now I realize it must be an acquired taste or something. It’s one of those ah-ha moments that make you second guess your wardrobe, your art, your writing-everything!
So I guess what I’m trying to say is that I want to be the girl who says to hell with what they think- I am cool!

For my birthday I recently received the book Learning To Love You More by Harrell Fletcher and Miranda July. It is a book of artistic assignments that you can turn to if your creative well has run dry and you would rather someone just tell you what to do. That in itself can be a particularly freeing experience.
The catalyst for this image is Assignment 55: Photograph a Significant Outfit. Although the exact instructions call for you to photograph what you were wearing during a significant moment in your life, I tend to think of these clothes as a time capsule which immediately teleports me back to 1978. Plus learning to do The Hustle just doesn't qualify as a significant moment! ;-)
To complete the ensemble you must visualize a few items that I've lost along the way:
1. Puka shell necklace
2. Brown patent leather boots (you know, the ones that zip up the side)
For those of you who weren't born yet (or still in diapers) in 1978, Jimmy Carter was president, the movie Saturday Night Fever was a box office smash, the Bee Gees dominated the pop air waves and everyone was deceived into thinking that John Travolta was an excellent dancer... I guess a some things never change!
Don't ask me why I still keep these clothes tucked away in the back of my closet. Even if I could lose enough weight to fit into them again, I wouldn't be caught dead wearing them in public. I guess it's just something I bring out every few years to look at when I need a good laugh. Also, the great thing about polyester is that they look just as good today as they day I bought them!
When we disconnect from the source of the conveniences in our lives, whether they are as simple as switching on a light or as complex as bringing food to table, we lose a little bit of our appreciation for the amazing complexity of the world.
Nothing special about this one; I was playing with the 50 mm lens and depth of field.
Assignment - Light : This is the second in a series of assignments that I am working on with my friend Colorblindpicasso. We started a monthly photographic assignment to challenge ourselves to become better photographers, both technically and artistically. In this case, he's got me beat. Not only are his photos for the assignment awesome, he also got them in on time :)

My daughter painted a "weather rock" this week during Spring Break. When we got home this afternoon, it was a little rainy and dreary, and when I saw the rock on our porch, I thought it would be a perfect fit for this assignment.
This girl was sitting on the pavement outside our office all day. Sometimes she took a photo and sometimes she made notes.
Eventually I gave in and asked what was going on. Apparently she is a student at the media studies centre (or whatever the old printers' college at Elephant & Castle is called now) and was on an assignment.
Everyone in the class was given a different location where they had to go and stay for 5 hours "soaking up the atmosphere" and observing. I could not work out exactly what the end result of all this was to be, except possibly lung disease from 5 hours of soaking up exhaust fumes.
So... if anyone else in Lambeth/Southwark spotted a lonely figure hanging around the same spot all day today, it could well have been another media studies student.
Students from all academic levels suffer from hypertension and anxiety for completing their assignments before the submission deadline. With new surroundings in college and increased social interactions, students often procrastinate and postpone assignment writing to the last hour. And to add to the mayhem, many students don’t really know how to write an assignment properly. But knowing how to write an assignment with a logical structure and apt outline of introduction, opinion/s and conclusion; is highly imperative. Be it in college or school, students should be familiar with and have knowledge on how to write an assignment by keeping all specifications in mind. CFS’s guide on How to write an assignment includes many tips and tricks of the trade.

Which road to follow....
Very appropriate considering I'm right in the middle of planning the route for our next trip.

Another unique-looking specimen from mother's small collection of Wrightia religiosa bonsai (it's all thanks to the folks at ID Please that I know)
Soon after I photographed the first Assignment Bonsai, she'd had to give away or dispose of significant number of them - all because of the new elevator shaft that's being built right at our doorstep. She's just knows that her pretty plants are gonna get stolen.
I'm sad to see the mini garden dwindle in size.

Assignment 52 -- Bokeh -- my first experiment with shaped bokeh
I'd never done anything like this before, & did a lot of fooling around to get the right-sized stencil for my lens opening before anything worked at all. It was interesting to me, though, as it helped me understand more about aperture & light. I think I also made this more challenging for my initial attempt by choosing a complex shape, harder to make come out recognizably.
