Question Do you challenge yourself?

Hey,
I thought i'd throw this question to everyone on this forum, we are all capable of producing some fantastic stories with our little plastic soldiers and heroes of might. But i specifically want to talk about challenges, here on the forum you can take part in weekened warriors and various other themed contests.

However, when your doing an action figure sequence, do you challenge yourself? Is there areas of action figure story/dio creation that you don't feel best at, and if so how do you challenge yourself?

One of the many aspects of this hobby I enjoy is constantly thinking of new poses or stances for the figures to be in, when that scene is in my head i try best to recreate it as closely as I can with the figure, but thats not the end of the line is it?

What about after the scene is there, do you just point the camera and shoot? do you shoot from up top? from below? from either side or just from the front? What about the lighting?

So much to think about, just recently i've thrived on swapping out my initial ideas and scenarios camera angles, trying my best not to shoot every scene from the same angle, now obviously, when you do this you can change the angle of lighting, which could increase or decrease the shot,. hmm. I guess thats the price paid.

So. My question is, how often do you challenge yourself when taking pictures, and if you do, is it purely pictoral with the camera or more with the scenes themselves and the action figures involved.

In friendship
Rich
