journal entry for 4/28

In what way do numbers dictate what and where and how you should live your life? How will you capture that in your photo challenge this week?

In looking at today’s warm up, what types of lighting have you used in the past? Which types are you likely to use now?

photo challenge: numbers

This week’s photo challenge occurs during that time where we find ourselves counting down the days quite a bit. Use this time to seek out and find the numbers that affect you everyday. When you stop and think about it, numbers dictate where we are at a given time during the day, they dictate what time we rise and what time we go to bed. Numbers determine how much or little money we make, and determine the kind of neighborhood around us.

Capture a number, fill the frame, show us these little gems up close and personal.
