Weekly Photography Assignment: Leaves

Home » Announcements » Assignments » Weekly Photography Assignment: Leaves

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 encourage yourself to push the boundaries of your photography and improve together as a community on the website.

Week 199: Leaves

Our theme this week is Leaves, and we’d love to see what images you can take of this subject, found everywhere in the natural world! Autumn is the perfect time to turn your focus to foliage photography, with so many changes taking place, and so many ways to capture them photographically. Perhaps you will photograph the changing colours of a tree, or use a macro lens to capture the tiny details of a leaf, or even use creative lighting to show the structure of leaves. Whether you’re a seasoned nature photographer, or a total newbie, the options for photos of leaves in nature are infinite, and we can’t wait to see what inspiring images you can create.

Here are some tutorials to help you:

Last week’s winner

Last week’s theme was Water– and our favourite image this week is:

This week’s winner is this image, captured by Louise of ‘The estuary in Spirit’ Bay.’ We love the creative use of reflection in this image. Having any body of water in your composition allows of this creative tool to be utilised, and it has been exercised in an interesting and engaging way in this image. The autumnal colours that frame the subject are also pleasing to the eye, and draw our eye into the centre of the frame. Well done, and thank you to all who entered!
