Photo Safari Challenge
Make the Ordinary Extraordinary at Willow Glen Downtown
Storytelling
Make the viewer wonder what's happening or what happened.
Orderly Chaos
Find structure, rhythm, or balance in a scene that initially feels busy or chaotic.
Emotional Depth
Create an image that evokes a strong feeling, mood, or emotional response beyond just showing what something looks like.
Photo Safari Challenge
Landscape & Nature at Sanborn County Park
Storytelling
Create an image that suggests something is happening or has happened. Instead of only showing us what the scene looks like, make us wonder about the story behind it.
Surrealism
Take something real and make it feel strange, dreamlike, or unfamiliar through perspective, reflection, light, motion, scale, framing, or anything else you can come up with.
Leading Lines
Create an image where a line or a series of lines helps guide the viewer's eye through the photograph. Roads, paths, fences, branches, shadows, railings—anything can work, as long as the line is doing real compositional work.
