Weekly Photography Assignment: Emotions

Each week we’ll be giving you a theme that you can submit a photo for, and we’ll choose our two favourites to be featured on the Nature TTL website. Participating in these assignments will be a great way for you to force yourself to push the boundaries of your photography and improve together as a community on the website.

Week 74: Emotions

Our theme this week is Emotions. This week I want you to try and capture emotions on the faces of your animal subjects. That could be something looking a little miserable, bored, happy, or sad. it’s definitely possible, whether that’s the real emotion of the animal or not – it’s all in the timing!

Here are some tutorials to help you:

Last Week’s Favourites

Here is our favourite from last week’s theme, Freestyle. You can view all the entries here.

Photo by Sharon Artley

Something of an abstract shot of a kingfisher, there’s plenty of motion and story in this image. It’s a lot more interesting than a lot of kingfisher portraits, showing a bit of behaviour and humour! The shot works, in my opinion, as the feet are frozen whilst the rest of the body is a blur. Great idea!

Good luck!
