Weekly Challenge 116: People on the Water

This time, we’re not asking you to get wet, but someone gets wet for you so you can practice water photography, dare you?

Every week I will propose a new challenge, it is a topic that you will have to capture in photo and upload it to the Facebook page of the blog by putting in the description the keyword that I will indicate for each topic. Topics range from portraits to macrophotography, landscapes, black and white photography, or babies. The themes will be offered on Saturday, so you have the whole weekend to work. You’ll have one week to upload your photo (one photo per participant), until Friday of the following week. Friday or Saturday I will update the article with the photo that most captivated me and propose a new theme, and so on?

  • With this series you’re looking forward to cooling off.
  • So it won’t be hard for you to find volunteers who take water for you and your hobby.
  • If you’re in the southern hemisphere.
  • Don’t worry.
  • We can also use water from a bathtub or a hot pool.
  • What matters here is that you get a big picture.
  • Not the water temperature.

As you know, if you have common challenges, the goal of those challenges is to practice your favorite pastime: photography. That’s why every week we offer a new challenge, this time it’s the water. To add interest (and difficulty), we add the human element. It’s about practicing long exposure well, for which you’ll have to ask your model not to move too much or let your creativity work, or freeze the movement as in the cover photo, with children this will be the best option. Workable? Come on, time’s up!

As usual, to participate in this week’s challenge, take your photo to the Facebook wall of the photographer’s blog: In the photo description, please mention the keyword “People in Water Challenge” after the title of your choice.

For those who are not from Facebook, I have enabled the participation of new social networks.

Good picture

What wonderful and refreshing photos you sent!Congratulations and thank you for your participation!Here’s a little sample:

Fascinating is the photograph I want to highlight this week. This “Brute Force” by Yamila Barcia is absolutely spectacular. As its own title suggests, it is a blunt, striking image. A photograph that you fall in love with from the first moment and invites you to stay and look, has a hypnotic power, in addition, you have to look at it, because when you look at it you wonder if it is taken from the outside or the inside of the water, and I like this duality. A duality reinforced by light and darkness in which water is immersed. The composition is excellent, a prominent focus with a natural framing, a line formed by the body that guides the gaze and transmits movement. I love his abstract air and that sense of freedom that he transmits, if you love water, diving, bathing at night and letting yourself be enveloped by it as if you were a single being, you will know what I am talking about, this fusion is what Yamila captured with this photograph. . Congratulations, Yamila, for this visual poem, and!
