Hi members -
It's September 2 and no assignment ideas yet.
Who has level 1 and level 2 ideas?
Thx!
Marko
Maybe for level 2 we could investigate the "black card technique" I'm getting ready to give it a try and it would be interesting to compare notes with others to gain some understanding of method. It's kind of dodging a shot on the fly and looks promising for landscape photography where high contrast (in sunsets especially) has to be effectively handled to render a properly exposed image. Normally we would shoot HDR or mess around in post to achieve this but the black car technique gives us another more natural method. I have still yet to try it though.
This seems like in camera dodging which is very cool. I found a flickr group on it Hanjié's Blog: Black card photography Part I (http://hanjies.blogspot.ca/2009/10/black-card-photography-part-i.html) and another link.

For regular assignment, here are a few ideas:
- the mouth
- red
Level one idea ..how about Circles?
I like circles for level one!
For level 2 - how about black on black or Low key subjects
I just saw this and it looks like fun!
