Alphabet Shapes
Weekly Challenge October 28-November 9
This challenge was inspired by an assignment that every photography student must do.
Patterns emerge in nature: around the block, on your way to work, when you look out the window. They exist as part of your daily routine. Your challenge is to capture them.
Locate and photograph shapes that could be letters. You can crop your images any way you like, but try to maintain a square frame. Keep your shots as unprocessed as possible, using very little adjustments except for the basic corrections. Keep taking photos until you have all 26 letters of the alphabet. When you are finished, create a montage of your framed images similar to the one above.
This may be the most difficult challenge to date. Blame Marcel (just kidding!). Because of that, you will have two weeks to complete this challenge. Hopefully Helene and I can get our rotation back to normal by then.
Good luck! You're going to need it...
Be sure to visit the Weekly Challenge Rules & Guidelines for more information. This thread will be closed on November 9th...so get those photos in!
The Rules
- Photos must be posted to the thread in order to be considered for the challenge.
- Any photo submitted for a weekly challenge must be taken during the dates specified in the challenge thread and taken by you! Because not all EXIF data can be verified, we will use the honor system here.
- Challenges will be judged solely by the winner of the previous week. There will be no individual voting.
- Only one photo entry per member, for each challenge.
There will be no cash or prizes awarded for the Weekly Challenge, unless specifically noted by the site administrator. This is a member-run contest, and the purpose of the Weekly Challenge is to encourage member participation on the forums and to keep you taking pictures!
Any photo will be accepted for the challenge. Edited/straight out of the camera, it does not matter. You are left with complete freedom to do whatever genre of photography you wish to do, and your own interpretation of the challenge subject.
