Today’s Daily Shoot Assignment: Make a photo with the number 4 in it one way or another. Maybe 4 items. Maybe a written number. Maybe more abstract.
When I saw this assignment this AM, I pretty much decided to shoot my radio alarm clock with display @4:00. But as I was thinking about this assignment this evening I want to try something with shallow depth of field – as I got inspired by viewing “17 Beautiful Images with Shallow Depth of Field” @Digital Photography School blog this morning.
So did some prep work by setting the radio clock to 4:44 and stacking up books (total of 4nos – 3 stacked and one in my hands). It was a mere coincidence that the book with the title A 4 step guide to getting unstuck ended up on the top and look closely – my left arm makes a 4 sign 
So, mission accomplished – got the daily shoot assignment done and so does my challenge to do a shot with shallow depth of field.
I promise – no more self-portrait for a while

What a creative and imaginative thinking you have. I like this shot a lot and all the thoughts that went with it.
P.S. Is the book good? Do the steps work?? lol…
I’m not done yet…but there isn’t a magic bullet
I guess it’s all in oneself…unless he/she doesn’t want to change, then they’re stuck.
What a great interpretation of challenge! Nicely done. Great DOF.
Nice job.Your creativity is amazing.
Great idea for the “4″ assignment. I was on the hunt for “4″ but ended up with something different.
Great picture.
You really have splendid creativity for the challenges.
Nice composition, Sasi.
Great job Sasi. 4 real….:)
Nice work!! I really like the DOF! Great way to incorporate the assignment in many ways!
This is a great photo for the assignment! I love your use of “4″!! Nice DOF too.
Nice DOF
nice tie in that you are reading a book and have a pile of books under the clock. Adding your self in the background really makes this a stand-out shot.
Well done. I love the glimpse of everyday life.
