Use 10 different self-portraits to make 10 different blended photos. Write a 3 sentence reflection about each blended photograph.  10 New Friends: Find 10 people at our school that you have not yet met. Ask if you can take a photo – yes, ask first. Find out a little bit of information about them, and write it down. You will need to write something about each person in your presentation. You can write three interesting facts or you can ask a question from the list I sent you. Write 3 sentences about each person.  Pick-A-Something: Trees, birds, shoes, purses, squares, circles, blues, greens, fruits, snacks, sports equipment, tea cups, dogs, horses, etc.. Pick “something” and take 10 photos. Be prepared to write and justify how it goes with your category. Write 3 sentences about each photograph.  Go Mono: Take 10 photographs. Convert them all to black and white images. Use both photos (color and black/white) in your presentation. Write 3 sentences to justify whether color or black/white is best for each photo.  Scavenger Hunt: I will give you a list of 10 things to find and photograph. Write 3 sentences to justify how it satisfies the requirement of the scavenger list.  A-Z: Take 26 photographs representing the letters of the alphabet.
