Originally posted by MossyRocks In a photo class I took one of the assignments was to go out with your gear and pick a spot. Then stay within arms reach of that spot for 2+ hours and take pictures. It is a good way to learn how to see.
That sounds like an exercise I read about in one of Freeman Patterson's books - he suggested tossing out a hula hoop into a field or whatever location you're at. Then photograph only what's inside the hoop OR what compositions you can make while standing in the hoop.
(Patterson's books are good reads for inspiration
