This photo exercise forces you to look beyond the obvious and see in a creative way. It's a simple idea, but can be surprisingly tricky and somewhat addictive. It's also a lot of fun and is guaranteed to sharpen your eye. Here's how it works: Find and photograph something that looks like a letter in the English alphabet. Use your imagination and you'll begin to notice letters everywhere. The only thing that's not allowed are photographs of actual letters such as billboards and signs.
