Help me with a photo project

take a picture where everything seems to meet at the same spot or where everything is attracted to the same area.

Take a photo of a globe. The earth is the center of the universe. I think.

To me there seems like this could go a lot of different ways.


You can take a picture that shows what teh center of the universe to you is (whether it be skiing, girls, cars, family, whatever) Have it be the focus of the picture with possible other  things that matter to you out of focus in the backgournd.


You can also do this with a more worldly view. An idea that just came to my head is if you get a lot of people to make a spiral all focusing on one point (not in the middle of the page) and then you can take the shot from up high (form a tower or something probably at least 20ft up) then just work on the picture with photoshop and edit some colors out, make some of the spirals in B/W, some in Red, blues, etc. some in focus, some out of focus. just play around with effects. It might end up too busy but it's an idea.


I guess if you need to draw something then it could go in a different direction.


Also you could just turn a black sheet of paper and be like, "Yeah that is the center of the universe , cold, and dark."

That sounds like a very interesting project. Just look for small things that have a center. Like you could have a pear surrounded by apples or something like that.

sounds like an intresting project actually. I wish i got given stuff like this to do in my photography class.



An idea i have is make a big circle on the ground using tape or something, then hav a group of people and possesions right in the middle of it, objectsand people that mean something to you though. Then a have a bg group of people encircle them, but still have a gap.
Not sure if i portrayed that too well

Go out to a secluded spot where you can see the stars clearly. Play with your Shutter speed, aperture, etc..until you can see the starts clearly.
It should be a few second shutter speed..
Point it up into the sky, and spin around slowly, holding it as still as possible. You should get a circular image with the stars bluring around.

Take another picture of something important to you in a dark setting outdoors.. Photoshop the 2nd image infront of the stars,, and make it look something like this.

i think i may use this, tell me what you guys think:

WHICH ONE?

1st picture is great

dont really think it goes with the theme tho

New York City if you're close?

maybe someone standing still, with a motion blur of people walking around him, and some wierd shit with the lighting would be good

just use a picture of you holding a poster that says
"let's keep talking about me"

agreed
