Motion Photography -- experiment with the different shutter speeds to capture one image that is Frozen in time and one with Blurred Motion. Canon Rebel Shutter Priority setting is the Tv dial, Nikon is the S setting. Fast shutter speeds make the moving object appear "frozen in time", Slow shutter speeds create a blurred look.

Seeing from All Angles

Find an object of interest.
Pick a location for your photo shoot with good lighting and with little distractions.
Start shooting and pay attention to where your camera is focusing. Fill your frame and get close to your subject. Your goal is to get every side of the object you chose.
Shoot at least 6 different angles, but try to get all of them!
When you edit your images, put all of them into a collage first and then edit the whole thing together, so the images are consistently edited.
Turn in a collage of 6-9 shots.

Objects neatly arranged

You can use basic office/household supplies, candy, noodles, art supplies, buttons or anything
you have a lot of and a simple color paper background to create images that highlight shape,
repetition, pattern and symmetry. It would be a good idea to shoot with the 1:1 ratio Square format.
Edit one picture to perfection, and then when you open up your next picture to edit,
choose "last edits" under the "looks" section of Snapseed, so your pictures are edited all
in a consistent way.
You will then create a GRID collage of 9 images in PicCollage so that they look like a grid.
