See the very different images people have created from my prompts

A little while ago I released a free book “15  Creative Photography Prompts”

Since then, many people have downloaded it. I have been honoured that some of them have shared images with me that they have made from the prompts in the book.

Marginal Waters

Colin Cunningham created an entire project from one of my prompts. Focussing on “The Space Between Things” he produced a series of images called Marginal Waters.

Here is what he has to say: “this project documents the riverbanks of the West of Scotland through high-contrast black-and-white photography. There are no postcards and no landmarks here—only the sharp lines where the water meets the world.

There is a quiet tension at the water's edge: a place that is neither fully land nor fully river. By focusing on the margins of the Nith and the Clyde, these images explore the grit, the rust, and the overlooked boundaries that exist in the space between the current and the shore.“

You can see the full project here.

A day out

Jo and Roland used the book for the basis of a day out of Downtime Photography.

Jo said that this was: “photography with prompts but no intention, looking for colours or themes but only for ourselves, practicing, relaxing, inventing, experimenting, finding joy in our photography…searching for in-between spaces & edges, for blue & orange, for connection & calm. Much-needed, hard-earned downtime for us - as a couple, as partners, as photographers, as creative sentient humans. It was MAGNIFICENT. There was time to LOOK, to CHAT, to COMPARE our photos”.

Images at home

Alex Rimberg downloaded the guide and decided to follow prompt 13: Photograph one subject in three different ways. 

He says: “I had had my eye on the vase with the hydrangeas for some time, and wanted to try to capture it. I also thought there was enough going on that I thought it was make a good subject to try to photograph in three ways. The ideas for the first two images came pretty naturally, but it took more thinking than I expected to come up with a different approach for the third. I finally thought of photographing from above, and discovered by accident that could also get the reflection of the vase in glass it was sitting on. All in all, I thought it was a great exercise in trying to think outside of my normal patterns.”
