interest in weekly photography tasks?

[Sybil]

I was wondering if anybody on here would be interested in getting a weekly photography task.
Meaning I will post a topic each week in which you get a general outline of the theme and what the requirements are, and then by the end of the week, you can turn in 3 pictures around that theme. Who would like to do this?

I'd love to do this, been looking for something like this for ages.
As long as the theme isn't too specific and random like - a black kettle in an orange room with nothing else in the room

Generally I think it's a good learning excercise, finding out what you can do with an image and what works best.


I assume we will have a 'at least one photo must not be photoshopped / edited" rule?




Does anyone know of any other sites that do this kind of thing aswell?

Ofcourse the themes are quite general such as "color" or "person" or something like that.

Well, the rules are, as it is "PHOTOGRAPHY" not "photoshop". You can edit the photos but you can only edit in photoshop as you could edit your photos manually in the darkroom. Meaning you can play a little bit with the contrasts, increase, decrease saturation a bit. That's also about it. No, clone tool or stamp tool or whatever.
The photos must always be on photoformat.

Heres a site that has stuff like that. I occasionally submit something. http://www.bytephoto.com/

I would love this. When can we start?

Maybe a less specific subject next time?

This is quite unspecific... This was actually also my first task when I went to study photography... It's a very general topic.

Anyway...I'll take colour or human, for the next subject, I guess those will be easier.

Not Interested - Only because I am not a photographer and don't care to be

Good idea though!

This would be dope. I've had these for my photo classes before. I prefer specific personally, such as something like one week being "homespace" where shots must be taken from the interior of your house. I think there should be requirements however I.E. no camera phone pictures, no heavy editing.

The first weekly assignment is already up, and yes, there are restrictions.

Just a suggestion, but what if instead of a subject one week, we had a assignment to get the best photos we can using auto on our cameras? It could be interesting..
