A little more about the prompts:
Monday 11: Upside-down
Take a photo of something upside-down. Or turn your camera upside-down and see the world differently. It’s a fun prompt!
Tuesday 12: Eyes
Take a photo of eyes. Human. Animal. Toy. Maybe even explore a little macro on this prompt?
Wednesday 13: Hands
Take a photo of hands today. Sweet baby hands. The hands of the one you love. Hands of an elderly family member, wrinkled with years of life in them.
Thursday 14: Heart
Take a photo of a heart. It could be a heart symbol, or something that you love, or someone you cherish.
Friday 15: I found this…
What have you found? It could be something you found today, or yesterday, or many days gone by. Share it. Or go looking for something!
Saturday 16: Clean
