An Introduction to DSLR Photography

In-class assignment: Photo Scavenger Hunt

An image that captures at least one of each of the following elements of composition (some images will include multiple elements):

  1. Leading lines
  2. Monochromatic colors
  3. Layers that tell a story
  4. Repeated patterns
  5. The decisive moment
  6. Portrait
  7. Contrasting colors
  8. Movement (could be artistic blur or crisp action shot, your choice)
  9. Rule of thirds

We will critique each other’s scavenger hunt images in class on Wednesday. You may check out a school camera if you will also be using it to work on your photo essay this week (remember that they are limited in number) but you are also welcome to use your own camera or your phone for this assignment. If you would prefer to leave early and do this assignment in your own neighborhood or out and about in the city, you’re welcome to, but make sure you send me your images by midnight tonight.
