This is week is all about Black and White. Ideally this is monochrome or black and white images taken straight in the camera and not vivid colours converted in photoshop. Minor tweaks are allowed though.
So look for objects that are primarily monochrome black and white and see just how many you can find. I have a feeling this could be quite abstract too!

This week I’m ahead of the game. I chose a new topic last night. Toys. Then photographed a sample image this morning for you! (If you wanted to know, it took 3 hours to create!)
So raid the attic search your kids toy boxes, build a lego set and get ready for the toy challenge!

Ok, this week challenge, is a real challenge!
It’s the elements, the 4 elements, Earth, Water, Air and Fire.
I’d like to see photos of these elements, but all taken in the same style, so not just photos of each one.
Photoshop, is allowed as long as it’s using your own photos for minimal editing and joining the images together.
It’s a toughy, it’s new for me too, so I’v had a challenge this week to create a sample image and here it is.
Then show me all your interesting challenge photos this week via the challenge tag #lopcvphotochallenge

I don’t know if you had the same issues, but I found last weeks challenge a bit tricky, trying to find interesting Red things! So this week is a little easier. Food! Just make sure you don’t eat it both photographing it
This image I photographed this week, wk 10, as my Wife wanted to open the Olive Oil!
I know we did in the Kitchen and Bottles and Cans challenges, for which some of us might have photographed food, but at least a direct food challenges allows us to open those cans or bottles!
So show me all your interesting food challenge photos this week via the challenge tag #lopcvphotochallenge

This week, I’m going for something a little different. I’ve decided to choose a colour, Red
So, again, how you interpret it is up to you. So, search the garden…
or, if you can do so safely, social distancing, find something red on your walks and get creative with your editing…
or find an interesting toy, and either place it somewhere interesting, or practice your composite skills.
Enjoy finding red things this week and I look forward to seeing your results. Remember to use the hashtag #lopcvphotochallenge in any social media platform.

Week 8! Are we ready!?
This week is going to be about patterns. These can be man or womanmade patterns, or patterns in nature. Let’s see what sort of patterns we can find.
I don’t have any examples except this one, which I happened to take this week during the ‘In the Garden’ challenge. Planned? I don’t think so!
I’m really looking forward to see what patterns can be found, both indoors and outdoor (within the rules of lockdown of course!)
Happy shooting and remember to use the hashtag #lopcvphotochallenge in any social media platform.

Wow, I’m finding that the weeks in lockdown are actually going by quite quickly. Once again it’s another Sunday and time to set another challenge.
So, in theory, the weather should be getting nicer, so I thought I’d make you get into the garden, or out on your daily exercise see what you can find
There should be lots of flowers just opening up, these you could find on your exercise.
In the Garden, you might find some insects
or flowers
Hopefully the wind will stay low and things keep still enough for you.
This should be a relatively straight forward challenge for you, give you a bit of fresh air and see what you can find

Wow, I’m finding that the weeks in lockdown are actually going by quite quickly. Once again it’s another Sunday and time to set another challenge.
I found choosing this one a little tricky. It maybe overlaps a little with some other weeks, but it should then also allow you to get creative.
So, week 6, In the Kitchen. Anything goes that’s in the kitchen!
I had a root around my 100,000 photos for examples and couldn’t really find any that related to ‘In the Kitchen’ apart from my Soup photos from 2 weeks ago.
So, I quickly grabbed a few bits and took some shoots as examples.
Hopefully this will give a good diverse arena for some interesting subjects.

This week I’ve gone for something a little more out of my comfort zone. Macro.
Although I have shoot Macro, I have a Love Hate relationship with it. I find myself getting mixed results, so normally don’t do too much of it.
However, I know you can get great images and very creative ones too!
So, try shooting everyday items that you might use, or raid the kitchen, there are lots of interesting item there!
Hopefully the sunny weather will be back and we can get in the garden,
and start chasing insects again, and getting 100s of blurred photos! But hopefully, get the odd Wow shot too!
Let’s see your creativity and I hope to just improve some of my macro work.

Wow, week 4 already of my Covid19 Photo Challenge. I hope it is keeping you busy and testing your photography skills.
So, this week is Bottles and Cans. How you choose to photograph them is up to you.
I’ve made a start on Bottles and even incorporated some of my Water Challenge photos into them as well.
I then tried a different way of photographing bottles. Learning something new.
And tried a similar method on a clear bottle with white background.
Now, I’ve photographed some Cans
and I couldn’t resist adding in some water!
I had great fun working on all of these, now it’s your turn.

Now, I been so excited about my week 3 subject, that’s its only Monday and I’ve done it.
Week 3 is Water
With the help of my 8yr old Son, his first time behind the camera, we created this image from a few shots.
I then took these photos with my Son dropping the tomato. We made quite a mess, but it was great fun and we plan to do some more.
