How many times have I used toilet paper as a bookmark? By the way, this book is worth any penny. If you have not read it, go and do it.

Happy photographing!

I picked a bunch of rose petals and put them in a blue bowl. In between the rose petals I put pieces of toilet paper. I filled the bowl with water and used a spay bottle to create the water droplets. Now I was ready to photograph.

Enjoy and come up with some great (crazy) ideas.

I want to continue on the Toilet Paper Project for this week. Look at the image above. I photographed a row of rocks on the bike path behind my house. Now take a look at the second image.

Positioned a roll of toilet paper into the upper middle of the image. Watch how it changes the entire dynamic of the image. What can we learn from this? A small object can change the appearance of the overall image. Therefor it is of the utmost importance of every photographer to watch the details and control them if possible.

As always, enjoy this exercise and have fun with your camera!

This image reminds me of my childhood. We camped somewhere and there was no toilet around so we had to mark a place that we used.

Enjoy and keep on photographing!

Toilet paper definitely does not belong into a dishwasher. that is exactly why I put it there to create this composition.

Have fun, be creative and photograph!

This week I ask you to take a roll of toilet paper with you wherever you go to photograph. After you have photographed your subject take another shot after you placed the toilet paper somewhere into the frame. Of course you can start right away with the toilet paper inside the composition. It really get’s great when you create photograph with toilet paper at locations where people don’t expect to find it.

Normally you don’t see tomatoes and toilet paper together. I picked a black background to enhance the contrast.

Enjoy, have fun with this exercise and be creative!
