Always the way. This morning, still trying to come up with shot, this evening have to narrow it down from over 100! *eye roll* I need to learn to not take so many photos. Now I have to choose...... feel free to nominate you fav :) Cheers!
This one is slightly out of focus I think(or I've had one too many wines), the breeze must have turned it just as I clicked.

This assignment for my photography class at IADT called for taking pictures of each of the letters of the alphabet wherever I could find them. Then, I was to crop each of them into a 2" square and arrange them on an 11" x 17" document. I thought the assignment was kind of silly at first. But, now I think it came out pretty cool. I might take some of these letters and spell something on another composition when I have time.

In addition to the floor lamp on the right i handheld a gridded SB-28 in my left hand, aimed at Ida's face.
Ashley's assignment on ritual. Peyton and I switched speech patterns. (In the documentation, both Eric and Ashley interrupted us, so please ignore the middle bit).
Assignment 52 -- Painting with light
Visions of the Green Fairy were said to come to those who drank quantities. I haven't seen the Fairy yet myself. This light painting was done with the flame of a fireplace lighter.

Assignment: "Homelife: Chores" March 30 - April 13
Checking and making sure the garbage got taken out. We missed it the last two weeks and now it's full of dirty diapers... Eeeww...
As we announced yesterday, our new assignment reflects the work of Vivian Maier. Please post your (new!) photos between Feb 1 - 22 and use the hashtag #vivianmaierassignment.
JUNKYARD TREASURES: Maier was fascinated by what others might consider junk. So its ironic that her work was only discovered when John Maloof bought a box of photos at a flea market auction. Go find that hidden treasure that is usually overlooked - be it at the bottom of a bin, a local flea market or an estate sale.
I’M SORT OF A SPY (x2): Meander through the streets of your hometown and look - really LOOK. What catches your eye? An interesting outfit or posture? A group of people waiting for a bus? A couple holding hands at the street light? The legs of mother and child in a shop? We’re sure you’ll come up with an excellent shot. No wait - make that two! It’s the VM classic, after all.
IN THE NEWS: Vivian Maier was fascinated by the news - especially when they highlighted the folly of humanity. She also horded newspapers. For this assignment, set up a photo that has a newspaper or headline of sorts in it.
MANGLED MANNEQUIN: Next time you go window-shopping ignore the clothes and look at the mannequins. Lop-sided? Disassembled? Naked? You’ve got your shot.
MIRROR MIRROR: The classic VM selfie. Come on, we couldn’t do a Vivian Maier assignment and not have this one in there. Find something shiny and let us see a reflection of you and your camera. Shadow and smile optional.
BONUS ASSIGNMENT: A picture that no one will see: Take it, have it developed, don’t show it to anyone. Stash it away in a box. Post a photo of the box.
Please be kind and respectful when doing street photography. Vivian Maier was not just an exceptional photographer - she has also been described as “imposing and rude”. Don’t be inspired by that.
Remember: Only post new (mobile) photos, and only tag one per assignment. You can tag your outtakes with #vivianmaierassignment_outtake, though.
By the way - We’re not checking if you finish all 6 assignments, so don’t be discouraged if you can’t finish. The main thing is to start playing and have fun!
Shot for: fotoplayers.blogspot.com/
I asked some people to shoot something for my first assignment but no one had any time so I decided to do it on my own. In my opinion "doing something" doesn't always have to involve a lot of action. Because of this I chose to shoot one of the activities I really used to do pretty often. This is waht a perfect evening would have looked like until recently. Hopefully I will be able to get back into reading again soon.
This shot includes a book cover which might insult some people. For those people I have to say that this is not a book that is glorifying Nazis but it is about how the world would look like if the Nazis would have won WWII (The Man in the High Castle by Philip K. Dick). I really love to read about strongly polarising and controversial topics which you have to think about and I also enjoy a good glass of wine from time to time.

Strobist: One AB 800 right of the camer bounced from the wall and another one left of the camera through an umbrella. A Canon Speedlite 540ez left of the cupboard bounced from the ceiling. Triggered with Cyber Sync gear.

Active Assignment Weekly: June 27 - July 4: Body Parts
Your assignment is to photograph body parts. Keep the props, or clothing to a minimum and really focus in on a body part. With that said PLEASE remember the group rules and keep it clean.
Dare: Make it abstract or hard to tell what part of the body you have chosen (please refrain from the cliche arm or leg crack made to look like a butt)
Restriction: No full face or full body shots, and as stated before no naughty areas.
WIT: Halogen reading light lying on the bed.. F/2.8, 1/20 sec. ISO 1600. CS4 curves for high contrast, vibrance reduction, dark blue filter to take out some of the bright orange-ness, noise reduction, gaussian blur, resize. View on black..
Active Assignment Weekly - Motion Blur.
Well I choose this assignment because I needed practice and wow... Throughout the week i tried to improve on my technique and abilities but a week was not long enough, lol...
This is my 13 year old, rescued Xolo. After being in a cage her whole life, this girl loves to RUN!
I truly appreciate suggestions and critiques.as i really struggled with my settings on this assignment.
WIT: Slowing down my shutter and playing around with ISO and Aperture due to a dark cloudy day. In PP - i boosted the lighting and the shadows.

I wrote to the NYPD to see if they had any records relating to my great-grandfather Michael Tierney who we believed was a New York policeman.
I know there was another (likely unrelated) Michael W. Tierney on the force around the same time. Michael W. was a friend of Theodore Roosevelt and higher profile member of the force who made rounds with TR when he was trying to clean up the police force from corruption and, apparently, much beer drinking.
You can find some interesting references to these in the historical NY Times in the summer of 1895. Click here for one example.
Within several weeks I happily received a letter back from the NYPD along with other information including this terrific Transfer and Assignment Card that contains all sorts of information previously unknown to us, including his birth, naturalization and death dates, precinct assignments, retirement date and pension ($700, apparently due to disability since a Surgeon's Certificate is noted), previous occupation (Hostler, or stableman), addresses (known from the census).
Sadly, he retired in March and died in December, 1913.
No origin location more detailed than "Ireland", but I'll take the rest, thank you very much.
His photo can be found here.

Assignment 2 - Umbrella Specular Portrait
430EX in shoot-thru umbrella to camera right at 1/16 power. Shot in manual. Triggered with an ST-E2.
This assignment was fun and allowed for more creativity. My original plan was to try and make the bottle blend into the ski lift tower. However, the lighting at the top of the mountain didn't allow for me to set this angle up (too much lens flare). Instead I looked for good lighting and set up my bottle and flash.
This photo was shot during sunset on top of Bolton Valley in Vermont. I used a long lens 70-200 to help blur the background to a nice blend of colors. I then placed my flash on the ground (right hand side of the bottle) and laid flat on the ground to take this photo.
Here are the specs for my photo:
1/350s @2.8
ISO 200
Focal Length 108mm
No tripod
1 Off camera Flash (Canon 550EX)
PCNW Light Control assignment 1.
The essence of light. Produce one image that speaks to the essence of light as you see it.
I'm taking a 35mm black and white photography course at my Uni this semester and my teacher is kind enough to scan the work that we hand in.
Here are the two photos I chose to develop for my landscape, or "space" assignment.
Taken with a Yashica FR and Ilford HP5 Plus 400 ISO film. Processed, developed and printed by me.
