I'd do real people!. Living or dead!. But not clichés like Marylin Monroe or Elvis!. More Nostradamus, Tolstoi, or that guy who invented microwavesWww@QuestionHome@Com

Well, this really depends on who you are as a person and what interests you!. I can give you an example through my own persona though!.

I like to read, therefore I would take a picture of a librarian going through the books in the library!. I like to teach, so taking a picture of a teacher while she's teaching her class would help!. I love shopping with my friends, so I could take pictures of a group of girls at the mall!. I love to cook, so I could go to a restaurant and take a picture of a chef while he cooks!.

You would have to ask the people for their permission to take a picture of them, but if you just tell them you have to do a school project, then they might understand!. Just remember to be polite and respectful!.!.!.if you go into a business, go when it's not so busy (unless that's the point is for it to be busy)!. I hope this helps!Www@QuestionHome@Com
