Any ideas for a photography project about Solitude, It's hard to find subjects?

Question

I'm doing a photography project on solitude for school and are in need of ideas. It is hard to find subjects to photograph. And if I try for candid shots of people on the street they get mad that I'm taking their picture. Any specific ideas?

Answer 1

There are lots of examples of solitude. For instance, a lone tree, shrub, plant in a park. Someone sitting in a swing by him/her self. A horse out in the pasture by itself. A group of kids sharing a booth in a restaurant with a single person in a booth right next to them. A single cup of coffee at a breakfast table. Someone enjoying a book in a library/book shop. You should get the idea now & good luck.

Answer 2

Go with nature.

A tree in an empty field. A bug in the sand. One goose on the lake. One leaf on the lawn. Popped popcorn with one un-popped kernel in the midst.

Whatever the subject make it small to the vast space around it.

Make the photo darker with filters, sepia or black & white. Dark colors portray solitue better.

Answer 3

reflect upon your self and what solitude means to you. All these ideas are great and try them but also try your own ideas to. But before taking a strangers photo ask them first its much essayer that way.

Answer 4
