Description:

For this challenge, we are going to place some limitations on what we can shoot, and force ourselves to think creatively.

We are going to limit ourselves to shooting in ONE location and ONLY for 20 minutes.

But this time we are going to concentrate on street photography.

Is there somewhere in your town/village/location with lots going on? Is there a town square or a space outside the library or a shopping street?

Find a location and take 10 pictures in 20 minutes. Your picture can include buildings, people, or anything else you think worth snapping.

The first rule of the challenge is that you stay in that one location for ALL 10 photos.

Step 2: Set a time for 20 minutes.

Step 3: Then start shooting! You have 20 minutes to take your 10 pictures.

Each of the 10 pictures should be unique and different from the others.

So: one location, 20 minutes, 10 unique photographs.

Although each photograph needs to be unique, each one does not need to be of a different subject. So for example if you are watching some skateboarders, more than one of your pictures could be of them, as long as they are unique and different pictures. Think too about closeups, distance shots, getting low or high, and so on..

Email the 10 pictures to your partners. Along with them, send a message about the experience. How did you find it? Did it kick-start your creativity or was it frustrating? Is it something you'll do again? Was there a particular reason you chose that location?

The sign up date is a few weeks away but you can do your 20 minutes whenever you want. But no stash pictures for this challenge -- all of the shots you send need to be taken during that 20 minute window.
