The Alphabet Photography Project

If you read this post you will know there are three new photography projects coming to PODcast. Each has a specific focus with the overall aim to improve our photography skills as a collective. And have a bit of fun!

First up is the Alphabet Photography Project #alphabetphoto

When it starts and how it works

On Wednesday 14th May 2014, you’ll be able to link up your ‘A is for…’ photograph. The body of your post can be free of words or if you prefer you can include a short description. The theme can be interpreted in any way you choose.

A is for… might be a photograph of an apple for example. But it could also be an object that resembles the letter A (like a pattern in a gate) or a photograph of the letter A using props. The letter A might could even be an adjective.

You will be able to link you post up on PODcast and/or share it on Instagram and Facebook using the #alphabetphoto hashtag.

Inspiration

To keep those creative juices flowing, each week you will be provided with ideas for the following week’s letter. So to start us off, here are some prompts for the letter A:

Apple, acorn, ant, aerobics, art, abstract, architecture, abandoned, arches, animals, amphibian, angel, Autumn, adventurous, alert, attractive, average, angel, award, ape, apricot, April, animal, August, aquatic, autograph, amusement, attic, athlete, aubergine, artichoke, archery, arrow, anchor, arm, aeroplane, attitude, anxious, anticipation.

Charlotte May 2, 2014 at 11:39 am

Oh I love the idea of this! Used to love doing photography challenges etc before I was too busy working! May have to try and have a go. Only thing though if we tag on instagram does that mean the pic has to be taken with our phones? x
