Welcome to our weekly community wrap-up. It’s been another great and exciting week on the Light Stalking forums with some great photography by the community. Members have been submitting high quality photos the past few weeks, which makes it even more exciting.
Here is the Photo Of The Week that is judged by Federico every week. This week’s photo of the week is by Patrick and you can read what Federico had to say about this photo in the link here – Photo of the Week – September 19th

We announced the contest winners for August 2025 last week. Take a look at the winning photos here – August 2025 Photo Contest Winners: The Art of Reflection

The weekend photography challenge from last week was “Unseen Beauty” and members had their creative take on the theme with very interesting shots – some of them are shared below.












This week, we have a new challenge that has some very beautiful submissions already. Join the challenge here – Light Of The Ordinary
Here are some amazing shots from the past week that we thought were great and should be included here:

Discussions:
- How do you improve? – Rob started a very interesting discussion on how photographers may fall into a few different groups. Join it here.
- Steve started a discussion on Magnetic Filters. Join over here to participate.
If you are someone who captures images with your smartphone, we have a Mobile Photography Challenge where you can post your mobile photos and also check out the works by other photographers. The images must be captured and edited on a smartphone. Join to submit the photos over here.
There are also some members’ picks that are featured. These can be chosen by any of the members and are put in a whole new thread of their own and called out as being a great addition and shot for the forums. Check out those stunning captures here.
Patrick started a thread late last year – “Community Inspired Photo Story Challenge” – capture a story in 3 to 6 photos that hold personal significance and post them with a brief description. While that thread was started to be completed within a week, it has been open with ongoing submissions for the past year and is still open where members can post their stories.
Here are some throwdowns to follow and post your own photos, or you can start your own throwdown too.
- 2025 Reflections Throwdown – a unique way to capture your own reflection, whether abstract or otherwise. There are many beautiful images to go through for some inspiration.
- Your Pets – Share photos of your pets here.
And, there are images posted in the Shark Tank forum where members request for constructive criticism/feedback on their photos.
If you’d like to join in with our members, feel free to join us on the forums. We’d love to see you there, and we are a friendly bunch.
