Stepping Away
Without going into too many details, recent events have led me to not be able to put as much effort and energy into this blog as it deserves.
I originally started ISO400 as a way for me and some friends from EAP Japan to keep in touch and continue the photography that began to fall by the wayside since returning to America and “reality.”
There’s been a lot of changes, and a lot...

A Picture is Worth 1000 Words.
ASSIGNMENT: I’ve always liked how words have a look, sound, meaning and origin. The way it looks has a great deal to do with the meaning it portrays. Take a picture containing a word, letters, paragraphs, etc. (it can be in other languages too ;)
DUE: SUNDAY, AUG 2

Lighting Exercise
Hey Everyone!
So, a huge aspect of photography is lighting. This week’s assignment is to work with and incorporate UNNATURAL lighting. This includes flash (on camera or off), hot lights, strobes, even lamps!

New Assignment (Movies)
Reimagine a scene in a movie.
For example, a picture of a house with one balloon attached can be a recreation of “UP”. A picture of toys can be a reimagination of “Toy Story”.
Merit should be based on how well the picture relates to a movie in addition to the usual aesthetic criteria.
Have fun. This is wide open.

New Assignment: 5:08PM
Let’s try something random. Let’s see how creative you can get while being rather limited.
What are you doing at 5:08PM on any given day? I don’t care what you take a picture of, just take it at 5:08PM (honor system, kids) no matter where you are and what you’re doing at the moment. If you don’t like what you get one day, try again tomorrow.
Whatever your picture...
