WOW Nicole!! pretty impressive! Now Question time:

1. Can anybody post to any assignment regardless of age (of assignment!)?
2. Is the aim to have a go at each assignment? (Pretty daunting when you are just starting out!)
3. How do you find time to get out with your camera and do all this stuff?!!!

1. Post anytime, there's no time limit.
2. Try any of the ones that appeal to you or something that will stretch you creatively or technically.
3. I'll leave that to Nic. I have no idea how she does it and goes to school .

lol Spare time, what's that? Yeah, camera, organizing, and school... well, needless to say, those first two items are most definitely my way to relax (strange as the organization bit is ) and get away from the stress of uni

Default Older Assignment Archive Pt. 1

I've just added the most recent assignments and the post was too long, so here's the first set of "archived" assignments to make room for the newest ones.

Default Great Ideas are meant to be shared

Nicole, thanks for the list. I will be teaching an after school photography class and am always interested in new assignment ideas. You have provided a great resource. Though this class is mostly beginners, I now have ideas for an advanced course.

Thanks!

Can we have a link to the winning post and worthy mentions in the list of assignments (something like the first list of assignments )... It really helps us to observe what made them stand out from the rest

We only started the "contest" idea with the beach assignment so you have most of the information available. If anyone fancies summarising the most recent assignments in the same format and posting that here, I'm sure Nicole won't feel put out that some of her work has been done for her!
