Signs of Autumn | Weekly Photography Challenge

This weekly photo challenge is deigned to complement our free online photography basics classes. Each week we will set a different theme and your homework is to go out and photograph a collection of images related to that theme.

You can start this challenge whenever you like and do the different themes in any order you see fit. Think of these challenges as a photography workout. Don’t just do them once and not revisit them. If you do start these challenges as you begin our online basics classes then in a few months why not revisit older challenges to see how much better a photographer you have become.

Also try to think outside the box as much as possible. Photography is as much about creative interpretation as it is about technical prowess.

If at any time you’d like a critique of your images then please feel free to email us.

In the last couple of weeks I’ve begun to see the early signs of autumn. The leaves of the trees and changing colour, I’ve spotted a few conkers and it’s certainly got darker much earlier.

Yes folks, summer is truly over and autumn is upon us.

Rather than create images of big beautiful autumnal landscapes (which are very nice) try and take photos that show subtle signs of autumn.

A conker on the side of the road, a tree with only a few brown leaves or perhaps a mum on a school run with her lights on!
