Idea

This class has allowed me to try so many new things, and each project has really inspired me to try new things. I never thought that I would have enjoyed taking self portraits or using a Holga camera, but I've really loved this class and I've had the chance to experiment with so many techniques that previously seemed daunting - like triptychs. Now that I'll be primarily shooting digitally again, I found some new projects that seem fun. One is shooting under blacklights with neon paint which sounds like a lot of fun, and relatively inexpensive.

 This looks beautiful and has so many possibilities - especially since some of my friends are talented artists and could paint all sorts of things.

Another possibility of things to shoot is snow and frost. I love winter, and it's so beautiful, yet every season I find myself taking the same old shots. 

Taking macro shots of snow and frost was hard earlier, but I feel a lot more comfortable with cameras now, and my pictures and techniques have significantly improved since, so I'm excited to try this.

Before I took this class, I hadn't used my camera in a while, because I was starting to get bored of photography as I didn't have any fun places to shoot, and could really only take landscape shots. However, over the past 2 years, I have been able to try so many different things and learn how to improve my skills in each area so that I am not limited in what I can do. I want to continue to challenge myself and find new things to shoot so that photography remains fun and interesting.
