Photo Assignment: Your Hobbies

18 June 2010 No Comment

It’s time for another fun photo assignment! Our last assignment (Black and White) brought in some fantastic submissions, and we are looking forward to seeing what our members can come up with this time around. In our efforts to help photographers grow and improve, our photography assignments are designed to test and push your creative bounds to the limit. These photo assignments are intended to encourage our members to see the world in different ways, try new camera techniques, and photograph subject which you may normally shy away from.

Our photography assignments are open to everyone at all skill levels and are to be submitted through our assignments section in the PhotographyBB Forums. Membership is completely free and you can register in seconds, so feel free to join our community of photographers where we participate in assignments, share photos, and discuss photography all day long! Now, onto your next photo assignment…

Assignment #38 Theme: Your Hobbies
Timeframe: June 18th to June 30th, 2010
The challenge is to take a BRAND NEW photo which shows us “Your Hobbies” (besides photography)
Entries are to be submitted here: Assignment 38: Hobbies (PhotographyBB Forums)

That’s right – no photos of lenses or cameras here! Show us one (or more) of the other joys in your lives which make us all passionate individuals. Be it a hobby/activity that you currently do, or one you used to love doing, find a way to photograph it and show us! Also, feel free to include a brief description of why you enjoy your particular hobby, or even the how and why of what got you started in the first place.

Important: With all of our photo assignments, the object (besides having fun) is to learn something new, even if that means learning how to see the world around you in a different way. Therefore, we only accept entries for new photos which have been taken during the assignment time frame (see above). You may submit up to 3 entries in total, and the top 3 photos will be selected and published (with image acknowledgments) in an upcoming issue of the PhotographyBB Online Magazine.

Everyone is welcome to participate. We have a supportive and friendly community of photographers and beginners, and this is a great way to get to know one another. Have fun, and happy photographing!
