Lockdown Challenge

Lockdown is a challenging time for a lot of people, being forced to stay at home unable to continue our hobbies and passions is crushing I'll admit but, why not look at these challenging times as an opportunity to challenge yourself?

For those who know me, I'm quite passionate about photography, it's been a serious hobby of mine for the past 7 years. I wanted to try and achieve two goals relating to photography. Those were:

1. To try and continue my current style of street & landscape photography within the new restrictions

2. To try a new form of photography, pushing myself to step outside my comfort zone completely.

So, how did I go? So far, so good! Exploring my local area has been a treat, I’ve managed to capture some interesting images which I normally would either overlook or just not have even gone out of my way to capture and my new form of photography (I decided on product photography) also went quite well! I enjoyed learning more about composition within a different medium and apply photoshop into my workflow. I’ve attached the results so you can also be the judge, how do you think I went?

Lock down isn’t over just yet but I hope this may have inspired you to challenge yourself, try continue what you enjoy doing within the restrictions or simply, try something new! I believe that your true creativity comes out when you’re forced to work within a set of restrictions, you’ll be amazed at what you can achieve when you try!
