Being Creative inside while quarantined

They always say a picture is worth a thousand words which is why it’s always such a good idea to take pictures of something that means a lot to you.

During this quarantine, it can be tough for photographers or aspiring-to-be photographers to get some good subjects. Not being able to leave the house may make it difficult for some to get good subjects, but that’s not always the case.

There are many things you can take pictures of from around the house. I personally think that the best in-house subjects are subjects you feel a sentimental value towards. It’s a lot easier to take a photo of something you deeply care about than it is to take a photo of something you have no feelings for

I’ve chosen a couple of my sentimental photos to show you guys reading this post.

This first one is a picture of my old family cat Snoopy. This photo reminds my family about what a great cat he was and we have his old collar displayed on the frame of the photo. Being able see a photo of him gives my family great joy every time we see it.

The second photo is of my fiddle. I have been playing the fiddle for a number of years and this instrument means a lot to me. This picture represents my life for the past 13 years I’ve been playing and it’s a nice reminder of memories I’ve made because of playing the fiddle.

When you run out of sentimental things to photograph, don’t panic! There are still many things from around your house that you can take photos of. By using your imagination or inspiration from other photographers, you can take a great photo of anything. They can be just ordinary things that you don’t take a second glance at during your day. But with with some magic with your camera, you can make them into beautiful objects.

Here are some of my personal favorite photos taken from just around the house.

At home photography can open your eyes to see that there’s a lot of beauty in ordinary things. And unlike outdoor photography, you can take the photos no matter what the weather is like. I highly encourage my readers to try out this kind of photography and you may even come out with some great still life photography.

Happy photographing!
