Weekly Photography Assignment: Layers
Each week we’ll be giving you a theme that you can submit a photo for, and we’ll choose our favourite 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 190: Layers
Our theme this week is Layers. For this challenge, we want you to look for layers in nature and create photos that show them off! It could be layers of hills in a landscape, layers of leaves in a tree, or layered feathers on a bird (if you can get that close!). See what you can find. We can’t wait to see your photos!
Here are some tutorials to help you:
- Why You Should Use a Telephoto Lens for Landscape Photos
- How to Photograph Trees and Forests
- How to Photograph Flocks of Birds
- Choosing the Best Foreground and Background
- 8 Tips for Approaching Animals Without Being Noticed
To enter your photo to this assignment, add it in the comments below this post. By submitting your photo, you are giving us permission to feature your photo the following week if it is chosen as one of our favourites. Please keep images under 2MB in size otherwise you may have difficulty uploading them.
Here are some guidelines to keep things running smoothly:
- Photos must be your own work
- Please enter no more than 3 photos per week
- Please only enter photos taken within the week of the assignment
- Include a description with your photo and tell us a bit about it!
You have until next Tuesday, 11th August, to submit your photo.
Last week’s winner
Last week’s theme was The Golden Hour – and our favourite image this week is:
We couldn’t choose between these 2 this week! Tim J Nicol these shots of a Hummingbird in the golden hour, taken in Republic, WA. We love the composition of the first shot, and the sharpness of the action in the second – a challenge at any time of day, but especially in low light! Well done Tim.
