Set

  1. Music – As a photographer can you meet the challenge of music?

Besides the obvious, photographing the making of music–musicians and concerts, instruments and equipment, I think music photography is also about capturing an artist’s “sound” in an image. A good music photo should communicate what the artist is about, not only what they sound like but also their personalities. But the end result needs to be generally pleasing, what appeals to some people will not appeal to others.

But don’t just stop there, or even start there. What makes music to your ears? I don’t want to put that in concrete terms, but there is music in nature, and to convey that in photography requires thought, planning and skill–oh yes, timing and opportunity.

2. Broken, Bent or Busted

Self explanatory perhaps, but everything bent isn’t busted, and everything broken, bent or busted may not appear to be, nor are they all “things”.

Set Subject: Shadows

Definition: 

A shadow is the contour created when an object or person blocks rays of light from reaching a surface. The shape of a shadow changes based on its relationship with its light source.  Decide how you aim to use the shadows. Do you want them to subtly accentuate a subject? Or do you wish to highlight their effect on it? Perhaps you want to create a composition entirely focused on them. The choice is yours!
