I really like the song idea. So many different photos could be seen.

Nice ideas people! How about we bring over the 'panning' assignment to the forum? I liked that one And I took a beauty this Christmas holidays

[msafiedin]

panning as in racing shots eh...
i love to learn and try that

How about an "around the house" assignment, giving people a chance to look at everyday items in their own homes from new angles and also getting some practice of macro photography?

I'd like to suggest a "Unexplainable" assignment. Those pictures that really speak to the photographer even though they are out of focus, breaks all the rules, and just generally don't "jive" but they are amoung the photographer's favorites.

Like to see an assignment on interesting signs.

"My hometown," those shots that define our hometowns. Given the global nature of this forum, I think it'd be very interesting to see everyone's take on their hometown.

Hello all!!

Here´s an idea, i don´t know if it´s been already done or not...

I was thinking we can photograph the same object, let´s say a pencil, a telephone, a water bottle,... whatever.

I think it would be funny to see very different photographs of the same thing and at the time see how each person has made it its way!

I think this is a great idea. Telephones, cars, street signs, bathrooms, parks, all sorts of things. I'd like to do this one.

How about shapes, like circles, triangles, rectangles etc.? In my photography class today the instructor showed us some slides of shapes he had photographed. Some were man-made items, others were more natural.
The idea was to learn to see shapes in places you'd never thought of looking for them before.

He then sent us outside for 20 minutes to look for specific shapes around the campus. Here's an example of what I did for triangles (not good quality, just an example). How many triangles do you see?
