The year is winding down, and we have just one more Composition challenge for you: Experiment!
So far, we have tried the following techniques:
- Lighting
- Panning
- Depth of Field
- Rule of Thirds
- Leading Lines
- Symmetry
- Framing
- Fill The Frame
- Background
- Lines & Patterns
- Rule of Odds
- Macro
This week, feel free to experiment! You could combine several techniques that we have tried during the year. You could do some long exposure streaky lights.
Feel free to experiment with different camera settings, different backgrounds, different lighting, and different processing. One advantage of digital photography is that you can see the results quickly, and try lots of different things without spending anything on film and developing. So take advantage of it!
If you need some inspiration, try a search on Flickr for “experiment” or “experimental”. That will get you started. Now get out there and have fun!
The rules are pretty simple:
- Post one original (Your Image) shot each week per theme posted on this blog to Google+, Facebook, or Flickr (or all three). Tag the photo #photochallenge.org. or #photochallenge2014.
- The shot should be a new shot you took for the current weekly theme, not something from your back catalog or someone else’s image.
- Don’t leave home without your camera. Participating in the 2014 Photo Challenge is fun and easy.
