I always fail all challenges but why not try again? will use the old themes from Dogwood 52 weeks challenge (2017) and instead of 52 weeks - I try to do it in 52 days. Start tomorrow if my fever is gone. One picture and to remind you - Instax cameras takes a lot of shit pictures and I will play with Holga filters and lights to make if even more crazy.
Dogwood Photography Presents: 52 WEEK PHOTOGRAPHY CHALLENGE
Portrait: Portrait photography is really about capturing the essence of a person in an image. A portrait image can range from a classic portrait to candid, or from street photography to a selfie. Each time this category comes up we will dive into a different area of portrait photography. The main focus should always be a person/persons (or maybe a pet).
Landscape: In the context of the #dogwood52 photography challenge, this category is pretty broad covering both traditional landscapes, and some non-traditional areas such as urbanscapes. Don’t be afraid to really explore your surroundings in this category. If the focus is the environment you are in, it will qualify as Landscape in this category.
Artistic Impression: When this category comes up, you really have room to express yourself. You can interpret the assignment literally or figuratively. Unlike the other two categories that are more focused, the main focus of this category is to let your creativity shine.
1 Portrait: Self Portrait Start things off right with a "selfie"! Explore the self timer setting on your camera.
2 Landscape: Traditional Landscape Shoot a beautiful landscape and share it with the world. Find a nice foreground and don't forget the sky.
