One Hundred

Well well well, this is the one hundredth Challenge that has been set since I started running the Photo Challenge around two years ago. So, your theme this week is one hundred. Interpret this however you like!

I’m hoping to see a bumper crop of entries to celebrate this milestone! Please send yours in [...]

Cold

In keeping with the weather this week, we’re going with Andy‘s suggested theme of cold.

Please send in your cold photos by noon on Tuesday 8th November.

As I’m currently without internet, this Challenge was written in the past and has gone live automagically. If all goes to plan, Paul should sort out the [...]

Looking through

This week your Challenge is entitled looking through. Your picture should incorporate some element of looking through one object to see something else. How you interpret this is completely up to you.

I will be without internet next Tuesday so I will leave the publication of results and the unveiling of the next Challenge [...]

Primary colours

This week your Challenge is primary colours. It’s simple – you just have to take a picture with all three of the primary colours in it.

Primary colours (subtractive)

I’m thinking specifically of the subtractive primary colours of paint (red, blue, yellow) rather than the additive primary colours of light (red, green, blue), [...]

Album covers

In the same vein as August’s at the movies challenge, this week I’m asking you to take a photo inspired by the title of a well-known album. This one was Paul‘s idea

This isn’t necessarily the same as recreating the picture from an album, although you can if you want.

Please send your [...]

Still life

This week your Challenge is to set up a still life shot.

Still life shots are all about the composition, and the lighting. I use the phrase “still life” here to mean any kind of tabletop photography of objects – they don’t have to be living items like fruit. If you need some inspiration [...]

Seen & Unseen

This week, your Challenge is entitled seen & unseen.

Your picture should incorporate elements of something that can be seen, and something that is invisible for one reason or another. This is a good chance to try an abstract or conceptual shot

Please send your entries in by noon on Tuesday 4th October. [...]

Clocks

Thanks to Andy Young for suggesting this week’s theme: clocks.

There’s a low barrier to entry this week, but try to make your photo interesting, and different from everyone else’s.

Please send your clock photos in by noon on Tuesday 27th September. Good luck!

Fashion

After last week’s relatively straightforward theme, this week we are going with Kate‘s suggestion of fashion.

You can make this as easy or as difficult as you like – if you have access to supermodels, we’d love to see them! For everyone else, you could take a photo showing off any other aspect [...]

Numbers

This week’s Challenge, suggested by Paul, is numbers.

It’s quite simple – all you have to do is take a picture that includes a number somehow.

Please send your numerical entries in by noon on Tuesday 13th September. Have fun!
