5w is a simple photography methodology designed for preventing contextual loss over time.
There are two prerequistes for applying 5w: have fun taking photos and develop them promptly.
Once developed, fill in the 5 w's on the back of the photo: who, what, when, where, and why.
...is in the photo?
...was present when the photo was taken?
...is in the photo?
...is happening in the photo?
...was this photo taken?
(include day, month, year at the very least)
...was this photo taken?
(be as broad or specific as you desire)
...was the photo taken?
...is the "what" happening?
