Photography Bucket List

Some people have a bucket list of things they'd like to do. I have an increasingly long list of photos I'd like to emulate or techniques that I would like to become proficient at. This will be my photography bucket list, and I will continue to add to it as I go along.

In no particular order, and with accompanying inspirations photos, here they are:

1. Smoke

smoke: blue on black

2. White Seamless

3. Bubbles

Side Finger

4. Water Droplets

Water War

5. Balloons Popping

6. Muzzle Flash



7. Long Exposure Water Movement (waterfalls and streams)
