These photo challenges have gotten me motivated to look around me and capture much more with my camera. In fact, last weeks challenge I have 187 photographs to sort through and see if any are good or not. Each Monday, I post a challenge that you can choose to do, or you can choose not to do. It is up to you. My hope is that when you do the photo challenges, it is getting you to think outside the box, and obviously to take more photographs.
The purpose of the challenges are to get you to play around with your camera, get to know its features, its capabilities, just get to know it better. I want you to try out new angles, lighting techniques and more. I also want you to photograph things you might not have otherwise though of and have beautiful pictures in the process. How can you beat that?
This week’s challenge:
Today’s challenge is to get yourself outside. With the weather slowly changing and cool nights more common now, it is a much more enjoyable experience being outside. I am not going to put a limit on what you capture outside. If you choose to take a great photograph of kids playing, or of your green grass before it turns brown in fall, or a flower that is blooming or an animal sitting in your yard, or even of the outside of your home. Anything that is found in the Great Outdoors is game for this challenge. I cannot wait to see what you do.
Here are a few examples to help you out and get you thinking creatively. You can capture whatever you want, these are just to help you get ideas.
So what piece of the great outdoors did you capture this week? You can add your photograph to the gallery if you would like, and then please let me know in the comments field.
If there is something you would like to see, or something that you are wanting to learn more about or see more examples of, that I might be able to incorporate into a challenge, let me know.
