I need a personal photo project again. I need some rules, some sort of challenge. Should I give 365 self portraits a go again, or try something new? If so, what?

repeat until satisfied, or until you’ve got ten good example of each.
Re: new project i just made up.
this is really good
my kid.
enough said.
(that might actually get me to bring him around.)
Whatever genre you think you aren’t good at.
redshrike beat me to it. I was gonna recommend something similar.
Could also be done as shapes or textures or angles.
– zigzags
– diagonals
– curves
– waves
– straight lines
– triangles
– squares
– 90 degree angles
etc.
Or work on framing and layout (without resorting to photoshop):
– only shots that are dark on the left and light on the right
– only shots whose subjects are halfway outside the frame on the right side
– only shots that are light on the top and dark on the bottom
– only shots that are bright and saturated on the upper left of the shot and dull in the rest of the shot.
