1B: THE PHYSICALITY OF PHOTOGRAPHING (RENARD BULLS)

1) Select a subject that is off in the distance. As you walk towards that subject make a series of photographs of that subject at different distances. Feel free to photograph other subjects as you are walking towards it as well.

Subject: Fragments from the wreckage of the Twin Towers. Located outside of Baltimore's World Trade Center.

2) Find an object or person that you want to photograph. Create an image of your selected subject. Move closer and make another image. Now move in even closer and make the third image. Continue moving closer to your subject making images until your lens will no longer focus on your subject.

3) Create a series of images where you are only looking up.

4) Create a series of images where you are only looking down.

5) Create a series of images where you must crawl under or into something to create the images. For example crawl under a table, desk or chair.

6) Find a subject. Place your selected subject in one of the corners of your viewfinder and make that photograph. Now repeat three more times using the same subject and placing it in the other three corners of the viewfinder.
