Prepping a monthly photography project
In my attempts to pull back some creativity in my photography I’m setting myself a monthly photography project. The idea is simple. The lucky dip. What does this involve you may well ask. Well it involves the list below. Each item is printed onto a bit of paper and folded up. They are all stuck in a hat and on the first of each month 2 bits of paper are pulled out, these two words form the basis of the project, at the end of each month I inted to post up on here a link to the flickr gallery for each project aiming for 10 shots for each project.
Below are my initial bits and pieces, the idea is there will be more than 24 items so that some will be missed and it gives a greater chance of a random project being created. Please feel free to add some suggestions in the comments or If you fancy joining in then let me know.

How about ‘film’? i.e. Don’t shoot digital at all.
‘Wide Angle’
‘50mm’

I don’t have my film camera anymore. Although maybe disposable could be a choice. I have a 50mm so that can go in as well and I can hire a wide angle

I have a film pentax, an Olympus XA2 and a holga. If you want to do a film photography challenge, I’m willing to get them shipped to you.
Its better that they’re used rather than gathering dust at my place!
