One exercise Karen Walrond taught us at the World Domination Summit is the 100 Paces exercise.  I knew instantly this was an exercise that I wanted to start doing.  Basically all you do is walk 100 paces and where ever you land, you take 20 pictures.  It’s a way to practice seeing your surroundings in a new light and to hone your photography skills.

Yesterday when I went walking, I started off by conducting this exercise.  I ended up about a block or so from my house and under a chestnut tree. One thing I like about this exercise is that since it’s such a short distance from the starting point, I can easily use my big camera.  When I’m out walking, my first focus is on exercise which is why I only carry my iPhone with me.  I can’t wait to see how this exercise expands my eye and photography skills.
