After the break we have been offered again in summer, we return with a new edition of the Weekly Challenge. Currently on the blog, there are 22 challenges that you can still participate in, later, to test your photographic skills. Shall we go with this week’s challenge?
Every week I will propose a new challenge, it is a topic that you will have to capture in a 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. from portraits to macro photography, 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. On Saturday I will update the article with the photo that most captivated me and propose a new theme, and so on?
- There is something about symmetrical photographs that attracts us mentally: you look at the photo.
- As if your mind refuses to believe that such perfect symmetry could be a product of nature.
- Or as if you are comparing the two symmetrical parts when trying to find one.
- Minimum difference.
- Visual symmetry is an uncommon concept in that it is rarely found.
- Which is why symmetric photos are almost always successful.
This week we will be photographing symmetrical things: it can be a landscape, the typical reflection of a mountain in a lake, it can be a building built entirely symmetrically, or your own face repeated in a mirror. Around you there is much more symmetry than you imagine, you just have to look for it and . . . “capture” it with your lens.
As usual, to participate in this week’s challenge, upload your photo to the photographer’s blog Facebook wall: In the photo description, please mention the keyword “Symmetry Challenge” followed by a caption of your choice.
For those who are not from Facebook, I have enabled the participation of new social networks.
Thank you for your participation
The works hung this week on the Facebook wall of BdF, in the group that we have on Flickr and on Twitter have been spectacular, this download of a sample costs me a lot, I like to observe the photos with which you participate, seriously, already as a viewer, and then, it is not easy to distinguish some photos from others.
I emphasize what I have always raised: they are simple examples of the quality of the work, the creativity of the blog readers and they serve as inspiration, if you do not see your photo below, it does not mean that it is not good, please.
Luciana is not a photograph but an authentic poem. The photo is the “reflection” of an incomplete symmetry, perhaps of a single people. A diffuse symmetry, perhaps something at some point in the past, but of which only remnants remain, sad and diffuse shadows that tremble on the surface of the frozen water.
In addition to the message that the photo can suggest (subjective and that will vary from person to person), I love its composition: look at the color gradient that, very dark in the lower part of the frame, becomes brighter as we go up. in the photo. ? Congratulations Luciana.
