I used to use Circular Quay in Sydney quite regularly, but never noticed the little dolphins in the railing by the ferry terminal. The first part of photographing the “unseen” is to see it! And we covered that to some extent in the last podcast.
If you’ve tried the exercises from the previous podcast, you may well have found that there are a lot of details in your everyday environment that you’ve previously overlooked. And, no doubt, some of them have a beauty all of their own.
This podcast is about finding the beauty and the story in everyday scenes. Be it on your way to work or school, or anywhere else you might go regularly.
The first thing to do is to see your environment with beginner's eyes. For one thing, it’s a great way to get to know your local environment, and I suggest that you extend that knowledge by thinking about what a tourist to your area might photograph.
Imagine you have to create a tourist brochure of your area. Which 5 photographs would create a compelling story of your area?
Practice looking for the beauty in your area. Here are 5 suggestions, but I’m sure that you can find more:
One challenge is to find 3 great compositions in your most boring room!
Reflect on how this made you feel.
And you can share your photographs on my Facebook page: Graham Elliott Photography.
