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).
Active Assignment Weekly: Aug 29-Sep 5 Time
With fall coming upon the northern hemisphere and spring just around the corner for those down south there is a sense of "where has the time gone?" For this assignment you are to capture an image that conveys time. This could be done through a literal approach of a clock, or perhaps something a bit more interpretive such as showing that time has moved by.
Dare: Fill the frame with your subject.
Restriction: Keep the post processing to a minimum.
WIT: Evening stroll along the lakeshore taken during our Labor Day camping trip. Thought that the long time sitting of this rescue boat made a nice subject for the passing of time. Shot at F/2.8, 1/100 sec, ISO 400. CS4 processing included curves for contrast, slight noise reduction, resize, sharpen.
I am most certainly a novice as best. Totally new to the digital world and the editing tools. I used Pixlr for this assignment and I wanted to give Layers a go. I first had to crop Brownie out of one image and merge her into the landscape image (I used the Lasso function). In the photo of Brownie the sun was almost directly overhead so I inverted the photo so she appears to be looking toward the sun breaking through the clouds in the landscape photo. I had to burn sections of the top of her head and the back of her right ear to darken the areas making the lighting look as if it was more in front rather than on top of her head. I used the Curves function to darken the clouds behind her to draw the focus more to the light. Both images we converted to black & white because I thought it made the image more striking. I attempted to use the Logan filter after that but it just seemed to be too much so I removed it. Mild adjustments were made in the lighting but not too much. Of the edits I made I think the Layers effects and the burning to change the lighting on her head really give the photo some personality.

Active Assignment Weekly: 26 Feb - 5 Mar 2018: Old Photographs
Assignment: Create an "old" photograph. Subject matter is up to you--portraits, architecture, landscape--whatever you like, as long as the finished product looks like a photo that was taken many years ago. How many years ago is up to you, but let's say anything from the 1970's back to the dawn of photography.
Dare:
Be creative with how you go about aging your photo. If you don't have access to an editing program, or even if you're just feeling adventurous, try some non-computer-based "post processing."
Restriction :
No plain B&W - your photo must somehow include colour ( think sepia, yellowed with age, stains, "re-coloured" etc.) Watch out for things that don't belong; for example, a 1920's portrait where the subject is wearing a digital watch.
WIT: The gardens where I work, used Colour Efex Pro to apply an old camera style which yellowed the photo, and added a border. Looks old to me as it reminds me of the poorer composition skills I had in the 1970's!
Assignment 52 -- On the Street Where You Live
This man's decorative style has kept me entertained for years:

This is my 18th photo for an assignment at IADT in my Photography class. I decided to apply the Rule of Thirds to this composition. Also, I worked a lot with the Channel Mixer to create a color scheme that I believe is much more interesting than the original.
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!
Assignment 52 -- Home Town Tourist Attractions -- The Write Inn & Hemmingway's Bistro, Oak Park, IL
Hemingway wrote: "Never go on trips with anyone you do not love," which seems like good advice, if traveling to Oak Park, or anywhere else.
I don't know what he thought about puns, or intentional misspellings, or if he would have wanted to try a flirtini martini. But I know what he wrote about oysters and about wine, so I'm sure he'd at least appreciate Hemmingway's wine list and oyster bar:
-- As I ate the oysters with their strong taste of the sea and their faint metallic taste that the cold white wine washed away, leaving only the sea taste and the succulent texture...I lost the empty feeling and began to be happy and to make plans.
--Wine is one of the most civilized things in the world and one of the most natural things of the world that has been brought to the greatest perfection, and it offers a greater range for enjoyment and appreciation than, possibly, any other purely sensory thing.
And I think he must have had an appreciation of comfortable hotels also, as shown in this lovely passage:
--That night at the hotel, in our room with the long empty hall outside and our shoes outside the door, a thick carpet on the floor of the room, outside the windows the rain falling and in the room light and pleasant and cheerful, then the light out and it exciting with smooth sheets and the bed comfortable, feeling that we had come home, feeling no longer alone,waking in the night to find the other one there, and not gone away, all other things were unreal.

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..
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.
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.
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.

Active Assignment Weekly - June 13 - 20: Tickle the Funnybone
Assignment:
Take a picture that is humorous - let's have a laugh this week.
Restriction: No humans or parts of humans are allowed in the picture.
Dare: Create an image that doesn't require a caption to be funny.
WIT:
I think the title says it all here, but one never knows. I hope there are many reasons to laugh at this, and if not, oink oink.
I shot this outside a favorite joint of mine this morning, hoping I'd find the perfect spot for this pair. I've used them once for a photo, but the results weren't that great.
In PP: I just adjusted the curves, then bent the green and red curves a bit for a lomo look.
Active Assignment Weekly: Fancy Pants
So, your assignment this week is to take a picture of pants. Jeans, slacks, cargo's, corduroy, camo, or underpants...I don't care, just take a picture of pants. As long as the pants are the focus, your picture will work.
Restriction: Keep away from whole body shots, and really make the pants the focus.
Dare: Take a picture of someone else's pants? I can't really think of anything else
WIT
I have so many jeans, and I had this idea in my head of lining them all up. My best friend has a huge yard. with some small hills. I got on a step ladder and shot.
Post process in camera raw, clarity and tone enhancements.
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.
Active Assignment Weekly: 18-25 June 2018: Minimalist Landscape.
I’m not very good at seeing good minimalist images when I go out on a photo shoot, so this is a chance for me to practice. And guess what - you’re going to join me! This week I’d like us to get out our widest lenses and go big. Let’s go shoot some scapes...... landscapes, cityscapes, at the beach, from a mountain, in your local park..... as long as they’re minimalist images. Beyond that restriction, I’ll leave the interpretation up to you.
WIT: Harvested field, half of which has been re-sown with grass. Straightened slightly, minor contrast tweaks.
