What are Self
Assignments and Why Do Them?
We all tend to get in creative ruts sometimes.
We start assuming too much about what we can and can't photograph, and
about the limits of our equipment, our film, and ourselves. These
assignments (hopefully) take you out of your comfort zone and get you
photographing things you might not normally shoot.
The only way to really learn is to do, and the
more film you put through your camera the better you'll get. Plus
you get the chance to win a bunch of film. This months winner
will get 20 rolls of the Professional film of their choice courtesy of
FujiFilm Professional.
| This Month - The Working Man (or
Woman)  Whether
it's the hardhat, fireman, carpenter, or this Chinese Chef working
among his hanging ducks people do an amazing variety of things at
work.
This month's self assignment is to capture an interesting image
of someone working. Sounds simple but when you start thinking about
it you may just be amazed at the variety of images you can
create!
Film Types
Negative, slide, or digital are all
OK. Images can be color or black and white.
Lens Types (35mm format used as a reference)
Any lens.

Rules
Each month we pick several photos from the previous month's contest that
we think are worthy of publication. Photos should be submitted by email
in JPEG format, and should be no larger than 1400x1400 pixels, 24 bit
color (1.4MB). Overly large images will not be reviewed. Panoramic
images may exceed 700 pixels in one direction but should not exceed
1.4MB in total file size. Photos should be submitted no later than
the end of the month.
Submission of a photo will be considered a defacto release for
publication.
