Challenge – “Still Life” – Apr 25
25 April 2025 @ 19:00
The Online Challenge brief for April is as follows:
Theme – Still Life Photography By Definition is “a genre of photography used to depict an inanimate subject matter, typically a small group of objects.
This theme focuses on creating artful compositions highlighting everyday objects, textures, and forms. Emphasise lighting, shadows, and contrast to bring depth and dimension to your images. You may also want to experiment with arrangements to create balance and visual interest, using elements like flowers, fruits, or personal items. Consider incorporating storytelling by selecting objects that evoke emotion or meaning. Use a clean, uncluttered backdrop or explore natural environments for more dynamic settings, keeping the focus on detail and composition.
So room for a bit of creativity in this challenge. Good Luck and we look forward to seeing your submissions.
