Sheep, Trees and Puppies – The Weekly Light Stalking Community Update


Welcome to our weekly community wrapup.  It’s been another cracker on the Light Stalking forums with some wonderful photography. Both discuss produced. 

 Let’s start with the photo of the week.

 This one,  judged by Federico,  is a dip touch of some art by Patrick.  you can read about Federico’s logic for his judgment decisions over here.  And well done, Patrick.

 Don’t forget to join in this Weekly Photography Challenge with the theme of nighttime reflections.  You can join in here.  Amazing to think that this is our 759th weekly photography challenge on the forums!

 You also don’t want to miss out on the opportunity to submit one of your mobile photography shots to our ongoing Monday Mobile Challenge.  The rules are that you must have taken the image and edited, all on a mobile device of any sort.  This really stretches your creativity with a bit of restriction.  Join in here.

 There’s also the opportunity to join in the community photo story challenge, which is an ongoing callout for community members to tell a story with several of their photographs.  This is more of a deep dive into a project scenario where you need to take several images at least.  It’s great to see what people are coming up with, as it’s sparking a lot of creativity.  join here.

 And also, here are a few of the photos from this week that I just thought needed to be shared even more because I just thought they were great.

 You know when Elin Laxdal starts a thread on Light Stalking, there is going to be some exceptional photography in it.  This week was no exception, with Elin sharing some images of livestock that she had taken during the week.  You can join in the conversation here.

 One of the most photographed objects in the world is the famous Wanaka tree in New Zealand.  And I think this shot by Rob Eyers is a very solid attempt at a very well-photographed image.  Well done, Rob.

 If any of you have been around the four of the very long, then you will almost certainly know Patrick and, by extension, Patrick’s puppy.  I love seeing this little guy come across my feed, either on Light Stalking or even on Instagram, so I thought I’d include him in the collection here.

Member LightAndShadow has been experimenting with a bit of black-and-white treatment with his images,  but I specifically thought this one stood out for the very obvious draw on the eye of those three flowers.  I thought this one deserved to be called out.  We are discussing it over in this thread. https://lightstalking.us/forums/topic/mallow-wood-and-stone/

 I also thought this was a very interesting image –  it looks like a pretty standard shot of a rough day at a Lighthouse until you spot the dark figure in the mid-ground going out into the surf, at which point I feel the image becomes quite terrifying.  If emotional response to an image is the measure of a success, as many people say then I think this one achieved that quite well.  Well done DavidC.

 If you’d like to join in with the shenanigans, our members, feel free to come and join us on the forums.  We’d love to see you there, and we are quite a friendly bunch.
