Assignment #327: Photographic Motivation

Photo By Photographic Motivation Assignment Winner Gene Putney

It can sometimes be difficult to find the motivation to seek out different subjects, explore new locations and develop new techniques. But when the passion peaks, we’re willing to get out of bed at 4 a.m. for a potentially perfect sunrise or sit silently in nature for hours with the hopes of witnessing wildlife. What motivates a photographer can often be seen in his/her favorite images. For this week’s assignment, submit your best shots that capture your motivation by April 18.—Kristan Ashworth, Managing Editor
