I am looking for structured assignments which will help me improve my photography. I’m an experienced enthusiast - over 20 years of shooting - but I feel a bit stale recently like I’ve not learned anything new or looked at anything differently. Is there any assignment you have done which you felt moved the dial for you?
Something I always think about from a class I had in college is to photograph the weather. Whether it be the seasons changing or the weather affecting the how people dress in relation to that or how storms/droughts play a part to the landscape.
Rain can result in really cool reflections at the right time of the day. Snow can create a beautiful canvas and how people interact with snow is fun.
Keeping an eye out on the weather is something my “photography” eye is always thinking about, and we always have weather!
