Let 52 Shot guide you through the earlier challenges, or ask it to surprise you with something unfinished. Then head out and make a photo. Each challenge gives you: • A clear idea of what to shoot • A simple observation to keep in mind • An optional way to push the idea further When you're done, choose your photo from Apple Photos and complete the challenge. Over time, your finished challenges become your own 52 Shot portfolio.
