Photo Challenges
Challenges from the Wordpress Community
2020 Challenge
The 2020 Challenge was all about different photographic techniques to challenge and expand creativity. There was a new assignment provided each week.
2020 Photo Guide
Here you will find twelve photography topics, each conveying a topic, skill or concept and links to each assignment.
1 Day 1 World Project
This wonderful project by Lisa from Northwest Frame of Mind ran over 24 weeks (representing 24 hours) during 2014.
A – Z Challenge
A-Z challenge run by Frizztext. My choice of subject was Architecture. So have a browse if buildings are your thing.
A Lingering Look at Windows
Each week Dawn presented her lingering look at windows challenge. There is no theme – just windows of one sort or another. Dawn stopped hosting this challenge in 2017
Bench Challenge
I am an eclectic photographer and one of my ‘quirks’ is photographing benches. It may be an ordinary park bench or one with intricate details; it could be a bench with a view or one strategically placed to provide a rest on a stiff walk. This Challenge ended in 2015
Bench Photo Challenge Guide
Guide to the photography challenge that I hosted during 2015
Cee’s Black and White Challenge
A photo challenge that runs every other week. This black and white challenge is topic related. Look for contrast or highly textured subjects to shoot. Hopefully you will find your creative eye will be expanded. Please do not use sepia tones (brown).
Cee’s Which Way Challenge
Each fortnight Cee Neuner challenges bloggers to post ‘Which Ways’ – these can be anything from railway tracks, trails and boardwalks to information boards and signposts.
Jo’s Monday Walk
Every week Jo will publish a walk on a Monday. When the walk is published, anyone is welcome to leave a link in her Comments, to any walk that they have taken. It doesn’t have to be on a Monday. It can be at any time and of any duration.
Lens-Artists
This challenge was set up by four blogging pals to replace the WordPress Weekly Photo Challenge which ended abruptly in 2018 and to which many of us looked forward to. Each Saturday at noon EST we will publish a photo challenge similar in form to the now-defunct WPC. If you choose to participate, please make sure to tag your post with the name of our group LENS-ARTISTS so that all of the responses can be found together in the WP Reader. Please also include a link to the challenge moderator’s original post (links to the posts within the Reader will not work correctly). One of our 4 moderators will host the challenge each week.
Life in Colour 2021
I am going to spend this year looking at colour so each month there will be a different one to focus on.
