November Theme: Re-Creation

Our theme for November is a tricky one but should be fun and really stimulate your creativity. The idea here is to re-create a situation or event from some point in your past using a new photo that incorporates an old photo. It could be yesterday or yesteryear. How do you do it? Use your imagination.

We discussed two methods at out last meeting; one was to scan the old photo (or take a picture of it with your digital camera) and the other, most popular way amongst the members, was to take the “Dear Photograph” approach and hold up the old photo in the place it was originally taken and retake it. You can get a lot of ideas for this at the Dear Photograph site.

Here’s an example of what it may look like. Not a great example but just something I snapped in a hurry on Thanksgiving Day.

Re-Creation

Members, you can submit the usual five versions for the next meeting, but don’t be discouraged if you don’t get five. Have fun with this and enjoy you walk down memory lane.
