Photography Ideas for this weekend - photograph numbers

From house numbers to credit card bills, numbers infiltrate our daily lives, so a numbers photography project is a good one if you’re looking to up the number of frames you’re shooting each week. Rather than shooting any old numbers, try to make your way from 1-100. Don’t be afraid to get creative and make some of the number formations yourself – the only limit is your imagination.

More Creative Control With Your Camera - The Lensbaby Lens

If you have your standard DSLR lenses and are looking for something different, the Lensbaby line of lenses has a little something for everyone. Lensbaby offers three different lenses, each suited to a different kind of photographer. Each lens is used in a different way and produces a different stylistic effect.

Lensbaby lenses mount directly onto your DSLR or mirrorless camera body. Check each specific lens for a list of compatible camera bodies. Lensbaby lenses have interchangeable optics. Each Lensbaby lens comes with an optic installed. This optic can easily be removed and replaced with any of their 7 other optics. Each Lensbaby lens gives you access to our full line of creative effects. Choose the lens that fits your shooting style.

Check out their photographer’s gallery to decide which one is right for you. Lensbaby lenses are compatible with Canon, Nikon, Sony, Pentax and 4/3′s mount SLR cameras.

Photography Ideas for this weekend... Photographing things around the house



I took two photos with the camera on a tripod... one with the fingers and one without the fingers. I then layered the two images and used a layer mask and the brush tool to create the effect on the fingers.

We have lots of photogenic objects in our house... from the piano, to lamp shades, the family pet... and the kitchen... well, don't get me started there... you can really get creative using shadows and lead lines with utensils you will find in a kitchen.

Go ahead, get creative and push yoruself a bit... you are only limited by your own imagination.
