Go Shoot A Photograph

by Amanda on February 3, 2010

If you do nothing else creative today, go out and shoot one photograph. Or try a theme of photographs. Shoot red all day for Valentine’s Day. Shoot yellow in place of the sun. If you are lucky enough to have sunshine, shoot into the light. Find as many little things and shoot them all in one shot. Go have a coffee and take a photograph of that either before or after you drink it. Shoot your children without them seeing you. Shoot your lunch. Go for a walk around your neighbourhood and notice the things you don’t usually.

Just shoot one photograph. Come home and look at it. Figure out what it means to you. Go!

    I always love little inspirational messages like these. Just go out and do it! You never know what can happen! Even though I regret to say I cannot do it today, or the next, I know I’ll set aside a time to make sure I do just that. You’ve got to keep the creative bug going, even if it is just now and then :)

    beautiful shot…and the shot in the arm that i needed as i couldn’t remember if i took a shot for my 365 today. i’m struggling with shooting every day as i don’t think i see that much that is interesting.

  7. lovely photo and good idea. I keep moaning because when I go to work it is dark and when I come home from work it is dark so it really restricts my photo taking opportunities. I should just go out and shoot anyway. I will do when I get home. thanks for the inspiration
