WPCC Fun Photography Assignment DUE DATE

Started May 7 – June 1(due date)

Fun Photography Assignment Instructions

Objective:

Capture 3 creative photos using your camera or phone. Learn about the photography composition guidelines and when to “break” them!

Composition Guidelines (Okay … “rules”):

While there many, many ways to compose a photo, please choose one of the following four guidelines (aka rules) for each photo:

  1. The Rule of Thirds: Use a grid that divides the view into 9 equal parts to help position important elements in your photos.
  2. Leading Lines: Use natural or built lines in your environment to lead the viewer’s eye towards the main subject.
  3. Frame within a Frame: Incorporate elements like windows, doors, or arches to frame your subject within the photograph.
  4. Fill the Frame: Ensure your subject fills up most of the space in the composition to focus attention and eliminate distractions.

Naming Your Photos:

  • Include the title of the photo, your name, and the composition guideline used. 
  • For example, a photo titled “Lady in the Park” by Philip Thomas using the Rule of Thirds should be named: “Lady in the Park ~ Philip Thomas ~ Rule of Thirds”. 
  • If you’re submitting from a mobile device or are unsure how to rename files, include this information in your submission email.

Creativity: 

Feel free to experiment with both capturing and editing your images.

Eligibility and Submission Period:

  • Photos must be taken between May 7, 2024, and June 1, 2024. 
  • Submit your photos by June 1, 2024, via email to Philip_P_Thomas@yahoo.com.
