Photography Challenges

This month I'm giving you a new photography challenge, to tell a story with your image. Pick a song or poem you like, and create an image that tells that story. This is about working on the aesthetic aspects of photography and less on the technical stuff.

This month's photography challenge may tug at your heartstrings - at least I hope so. A day in the life project is so valuable to not only you as the photographer but the subject and their family as well. Here's why I challenge you to do this one and do it soon!

This is the story of an amateur photographer who did a personal project - trading cards of local baristas. See what he learned and how you can do the same, then take the challenge on yourself.

This month's photography challenge is one you can do anywhere, with any camera, regardless of your skill level, and it only takes 30 minutes! Get some fresh air, put on your walking shoes and get out there to take some photos. All you need is a camera, walking shoes, and half an hour of your time.

This month we're going to do something a little different. Yes, it's still a photography challenge but you'll get so much more than that out of it if you participate. Gratitude and appreciation of what you have in your life.

Challenge yourself this month to shoot wide opened, or with an extra large aperture. Enclosed are some tips for success and subject ideas. So get out of the rut of doing the same thing all the time, and try this if you normally shoot at f/8 or smaller apertures. See how creative you can get with it.

The challenge this month is to process some images - and I'm giving you 5 of mine to play with! If you're new to processing now's the time to try it - if you do it regularly, I'd love to see you try a new technique, style, or method. Let's see what you can create!

The challenge this month is to simplify. Learn how it will help you make images that are stronger, with a clear subject and more impact. Enter to win a prize by sharing your images and your experience with us.

This new monthly photography challenge urges you to get close and personal with your subject and try some macro photography. See the details, get some tips, find out who won the last challenge and how you can participate in this one by reading the full article here.

Here's a photography challenge to help you look at ordinary things differently. You don't need to have amazing subjects, you just need to think outside the box.

This photography challenge is about why using your tripod can make you a better photographer. You may find it harder than you think, but if you push through you should be rewarded by seeing your photography improve.
