Photography Project-Need Ideas

[Singin4Him]

Ok I'm supposed to do an editorial type photography project. Basically I'm supposed to make a statement and back it up with pictures, it has to be an opinion either for something or against something. For example someone is doing one about how girls go to extremes to be beautiful.

I had a vague idea of possibly doing something about how God's beauty is in everything or God can be see in everything but I don't know how I would show that though.

I need some ideas either to help with the ones I've thought of or if you have any other ideas please share. Think about it this way, if you had a project like this, what would you do?

the God's beauty thing is kinda cool.... you can do alot with this... opn different angles. Say, take photos at a worship service... and see if there's anjyone that people would look at and go "God can't love that person...." (a person heavily tattoos, peirced, someone who looks like a bum... etc) and take a photo of them with their arms outstreched during worship.

You can find some dead looking field, that maybe has a single, beautiful flower growing amidst all the ugliness...

Someone I knew did a photo project on the dog racing tracks. He did it because he liked dog racing, but someone else turned around and showed the cruel side of it (how the dogs are sometimes starved, and abused...)

You can do a project showing the effects of unprotected premarital sex... teenage girls who are pregant, or have babies... just found out they have std's...
you can do quite a bit on this topic as well.

Shwoing homeless people as real people...

Possibilities for a project are endless

Find scenes that seem ugly when viewed from afar and focus on the positive element of the picture. It could be as simple as a splash of color, a mother's eyes or a parent holding a child's hand. Look deep into the scene. Tune out the ugly and show the beauty.
