Weekly Photography Assignment: Creative Expression

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 239: Creative Expression Our theme this week Creative Expression, and we’d love to see what creative nature images you can take! Sometimes we get stuck in a nature photography rut; we get bored of taking the same style of images and need someone or something to push us into uncharted territory to have a breakthrough. This week, we’d like you to use creative expression in nature photography however you can; look for abstract images in nature, or photograph your favourite wildlife in an unsual way! Perhaps you will create a partially-obscured portrait, or use extreme lighting techniques on a macro subject. Whether you’re a seasoned nature photographer, or are new to the genre, the options for creative nature photographs are endless, and we can’t wait to see what inspiring images you can create. Here are some tutorials to help you: To enter your photo to this assignment, add it in the comments below this post.
