I have to do an assignment for photography.
Take 10 photos, on a certain theme or idea. I have no ideas whatsoever, no inspiration, has anyone done anything similar and can give me some pointers?
I thought a photography module would be fun, but I find it hard and stressful and I seem to have no talent for it.

Pick a busy one, with fast moving traffic - 9am to 7am, you can get some nice "dull" morning shots, as well as some nice light-trails in the evening, if you leave the shutter open on a tripod. Same place throughout the day, make sure you pick interesting moments (approximately an hour apart). Include a bus stop or something, make sure the frame you set is always going to be good. Traffic lights, and make the change of colours patterns.
I dunno. Seems like a good idea.

I'm sure that's not the technical term for it.
Drunk posting is very wrong.
Why do do some "erotic art"
If i were doing your proj't, i think i'd use the beach, or the sky over a view, city or something. take a pic at diffrent times, sunrise 2 hours after ect, and then sun set and a night time photo.... or something like that. or take 5 picures of the county side, 5 for a town/city view, and make like a reflection by putting the town reflecting the county.
hope it helps you a little...... sarah xxx
Guidlines:
1. Simplicity- simple and direct objects. Center of interest and the importance of close up.
2. Rule of thirds- (this one is hard to explain) If you have ever played tic-tac-toe before. its a similar to the shape you make to play the game. like this but bigger --> #. Its boring to have the object in the center. So move the subject to one of the corners but try not to have them in the center.
3. Line- Diagonal lines are dynamic. The straight line or the "S" curve. Geometric shapes are good.
4. Balance- arrangements of shapes in a complementary way.
5. Framing- Its where the objects in the foreground give good depth.
6. Mergers- AVOID THEM!!! its where you would take a picture of a person who is stading right in front of a pole, so the pole looks like its coming out of their head.
If you need some more info, let me know. I have tons of books on photography.
p.s No one is ever "Good" at photography. practice makes perfect. dont give up- no matter how hard you think it is.
good luck!
