The Photo Game: Triangles
Background
I joined Kenneth Wajda and a small group of photographers in a weekly photo game a while ago. Kenneth wrote a prompt each week and tasked us with creating a photograph that met the prompt. Unfortunately, Kenneth's photo game is taking a break.
Since I'm not prepared to give up the game, my wife graciously agreed to provide me with a surprise prompt each week so that I can continue.
The rules are still the same:
- All submissions must be scans of film, no photos from digital cameras
- Images must be captured, processed, and submitted by 8 AM each Saturday
- Miss a week, and you're out
My goal in playing is simple. Get out and shoot film.
This Week
This week's Photo Game was enjoyable because it took me to a new park and a festival in downtown Castle Rock. I didn't get as many triangles as I'd like, but I shot two film rolls.
The roll of Ektachrome is out for development. It's my first time using slide film, and I'm excited to see how it turns out. I hope to have some photos worth sharing in the next few weeks.
An aside: The turnaround time for E-6 at the local photo shop is painfully slow. I'll have to find a quicker lab if I shoot more Ektachrome.
The image below is my favorite triangle-based photo this week. The leg of the coffee table makes a triangle with the bottom cross member of the table when viewed from an angle. The rug underneath has a diamond pattern in it that also looks triangular.
This photo was made on Ilford HP5+ using a Nikon N90s.
