Really enjoying the variety of this thread!

I am liking the whole assignment idea in general. You guys are forcing me to look for interesting things to shoot.
Having specific goals and things to look for, gets me focused. If I'm not focused I become prone to aimless wandering and I take pics like my Avatar

Jay Maisel says NEVER go out with a preconceived idea of what you want to shoot, but in this case I think it is a great thing

Lots of good variety here guys. I will try to get some signs this week.

I find the same thing John. They also encourage me to do things outside my comfort zone or attempt things I hadn't before (e.g. last months assignment light painting).

The assignments get a big tick from me.

That's funny. I just joined the forum, but last month when you guys were doing that I was trying it for the first time too. Was light painting my Harley.
Didn't do great, but was ok for first time.
