    Weekly Photography Challenge – Black and White Architecture

    The library at Ephesus

    Your challenge this week is to photograph some architecture. You can do this no matter where you live. If there are buildings, you can do this. Even a hut or shack is architecture! Use a wide-angle lens or go for details, maybe shoot at night? It’s up to you how you approach it, just get out there shooting.

    The first thing I want you to do to get ready this week is to have a look at these 24 Frozen Images to get you ready for a spine-chilling challenge!

    Weekly Photography Challenge – Frozen

    If you live in a northern part of the globe this should be easy for you. Find something frozen, just look around for:

    • Icicles
    • Snow
    • Frost
    • Snowflakes if you want to go ultra macro!

    Even if you do not live in the northern parts of the world you can participate in this challenge. Think outside the box what else is frozen? How about:

    • Ice cubes
    • Popsicles
    • Ice skating rink
    • Ice cream!

    You could even freeze something inside an ice cube and photograph that! How about a flower or slice of cucumber? Get inventive.

  • Weekly Photography Challenge – New Beginning

    As the first photography challenge of 2017, I thought it would be fitting if we go with a theme for new beginnings. Like these 19 images show – there are many ways to interpret that theme.
