A New Perspective
by Rachel on Feb.23, 2009, under challenge, philosophy, photos
I try to find ways to challenge myself, periodically. This weekend, my challenge to myself was to shoot the Fremont Sunday Market — something I shoot pretty much every weekend — in a new way.
What I chose to do for this was to try to shoot things at angles I would not normally do. From odd positions, or in tighter than I normally would, or with the camera tilted in a way I would not normally do. (Or combinations of the above.)
This forced me not to just rely on my usual styles of composition, but to really think about composition as I was shooting. I think overall I was able to come up with better photos than my usual Market photo walks as a result.
