Capturing Life in Motion
THE PRINCIPLE:
You're not looking for poses. Poses are insincere attempts to look our best and put on our best attitude for one "perfect" photo. Instead, capture people and places as they really are. This is done by taking unrehearsed photos of people doing what they're doing.

YOUR CHALLENGE: TAKE 30 PHOTOS IN SEQUENCE
Find a moment during the day and take at least 30 photos in sequence. If you have a rapid fire photo, your camera may sound like a machine gun, and that's okay. Take photos like a paparazzi. If you're not happy with that sequence, keep shooting until you capture the moment you like.
