Week 297: Water

Our theme this week is Water, and we’d love to see what fantastic images of water found in nature that you can take! Water can be a wonderful element to utilise in your nature images. From bodies of water in landscape images, to rain streaks in a wildlife scene, to frost in a macro moment, there is no shortage of ways to incorperate water in all its forms. Look for unqiue ways to capture water. Perhaps you will use reflections to your advantage, or long exposure techniques to shocase the movement of water. Whether you’re a seasoned nature photographer, or are new to the genre, the options for awesome water images are endless, and we can’t wait to see what inspiring images you can create.

Last week’s winner

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

This week’s winner is this image, captured by Mark Thornton: ‘A young robin watching me in the garden.’

This charming portrait is a wonderful testament to its subject. The composition frames the robin beautifully with pin-sharp detail that allows us to appreciate every feather of this fascinating ‘animal face.’ Well done, and thank you to all who entered!
