My favorite exercise we called the "Isolation Challenge," to stay fixed in one spot for one hour shooting one roll of film. Allowing subjects to come into our frame, to cast a shadow, or to contrast with our pre-aligned backgrounds, as opposed to chasing after something already happening. Most of us are walking around too much, constantly seeking to improve our position.

A great framework for delegating work or encouraging a team member to identify and own new work:
Challenge people to operate at the next level and promise support for them taking on that challenge.
Example: someone says that they are identifying a problem that is a bit of a stretch for them to carve out or solve.
You can identify it as a challenge for them and offer it to them _as a challenge_ that they can accept.
And you should communicate that you will _support_ them taking on that challenge (and how you'll support them).
