Shutter Mike Photography

I wrote about Photographing a Theme to Beat Photographer’s Block a while back and I have been having fun with approaching my photography with a theme in mind.  My latest theme photo shoot was metal.   The great thing about doing a shoot like this is you  are only limited by your imagination.  A theme of metal does not need to limit you to only the obvious metal object.  Once you start shooting you may end up going down a different path or interpret your theme in a way you hadn’t thought of originally.  But that is the whole point, to get your creativity flowing, so go with wherever it takes you.

In the case of my metal theme, beside obvious metal objects, I looked at things like shadows created by metal objects, the contrast between metal and its surroundings, and pattern in metal.
