Description: Members share how they expanded their creativity by applying constraints

In an earlier NCP meeting, we discussed the power of constraints. Here's the challenge: 

Choose your own constraints—or select a random pair from out of a hat e.g.

  • Wide open aperture + shoot from ground level
  • Only shadows + square format
  • Single object + backlight only
  • Three colours max + long exposure
  • No people + leading lines must be featured
  • One hour + handheld only (no tripod)

.Create up to three images that demonstrate how a creative constraint improves your final photograph. Consider how effectively the constraint sparked your creativity, not technical perfection alone. Be ready to share your insights if you're willing. If you create a body of work (in addition to three images), lets showcase it! 

You can enter single images in the competition, BUT if you create a body of work, lets showcase it. 

This is an Image review.
