Exercise No. 1

Freeman Patterson: Photography and the Art of Seeing

"1 / Pick up your camera, a standard lens, and your tripod, and go to the front door of your home. Take nineteen steps (or any other arbitrarily predetermined number) in any direction. Mark the spot. Take seven more steps from the spot you marked. The seven steps from your original stopping point form the radius of a circle, in which you should proceed to shoot an entire 20-exposure film."
