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?
For like a year I dabbled into food photography as a hobby and really tried to go as deep as I could down that rabbit hole in my spare time. Youtube, some books, etc. Trying to make photos every chance I got.
Although I have done years worth of professional work, and knew how to light, etc., the very pre-meditated, small scale, thoughtfully lit food photography really upped my game in a number of areas.
