1:1000 Photo Group – Theme: 3-Sided

I had chosen this weeks theme, “3-Sided”, as I thought it would be a good challenge. I also wanted to see how everyone else would interpret the theme themselves, so it should be fun seeing what everyone came up with.

I thought I would be shooting triangles the whole time, but it turned out to be triangles and 3-dimensional objects. Here’s my 5 images for this theme:

Please leave feedback about the images, and then visit the other group members and do the same. If you’d like more information about the group, or would like to join in on the fun, Ed has the info here. I’ll be posting links (below) to the other members photos as they submit them to their blogs…

1:1000 – Group Photo Project #1: Numbers

So my buddy Ed came up with this idea to get out with cameras in hand and get the creative juices flowing….weekly. So every week we will be picking a one word theme, capture images about that theme, select 5 of those images, and post them on our blogs for everyone to comment and criticize.

  • Each week is a new single word theme. Using a single word allows everyone to interpret it in their own way. This allows for more creativity possibly.
  • Each theme starts on a Friday and ends on the following Friday.
  • You must shoot your photos that week. You can’t submit anything you have shot in the past.
  • Post your best 5 photos to your own website or blog each week based on the theme. Feel free to comment or tell a story about how you interpreted the theme that week. Or just post the photos.
  • Post the camera, lens, ISO, shutter speed, and aperture used to capture the photo so more people can learn details.
  • When you post your photos to your blog or website you then link to everyone that is participating that week. This does a few things for us. Gives us more exposure to our own blogs. Visitors can jump between all our posts/pages very easy.
  • You should try to comment on everyone that is participating in the weekly theme. Try to give constructive criticism and encouragement. Maybe select which photo you like the most and why. Commenting is very important with this project!

This week’s theme was Numbers.
I went back and forth with several ideas, but kept reasoning to just stick with traditional numerical characters. It will be fun to see what others interpreted for this theme!

Here’s the 5 images I’ve selected for this week:
