Shoot at least one 24-exposure roll of film using the manual settings
of your camera. Use color print film with an ISO of 400.
Look at your surroundings through the viewfinder of your camera.
Look at your world from different angles. Look at scenes close-up.
Look for abstract shapes or compositions where nothing is recognizable.
Pay attention to unity (proximity), emphasis (contrast of light
and darks), balance (cropping), depth (highlights and shadows),
color schemes, positive and negative space (figure/ground). Utilize
what you've learned about depth of field to decide which part of
your image will be in focus.
Have the film commercially developed and printed (4x6 prints).
If the first roll did not turn out, try again. Present only your
selects for critique.
