Weekly Photography Assignment: Mammals

panning

Each week we’ll be giving you a theme that you can submit a photo for, and we’ll choose our two favourites to be featured on the Nature TTL website. Participating in these assignments will be a great way for you to force yourself to push the boundaries of your photography and improve together as a community on the website.

Week 12: Mammals

Our theme this week is Mammals. Show us your photos that feature a mammal!

For some guidance, have a read of the following tutorials:

Last Week’s Favourites

Here are two of our favourites from last week’s theme, Trees. You can view all of the entries here.

Photo by Helen White

I love the abstract nature of this image which Helen has achieved by moving the camera during the exposure. It’s tricky to get a good shot from this technique, but when it works it looks great. The strong lighting has given lovely, warm colours on the bark of the trees too.

Photo by Heather Valey

The unusual angle and use of strong black and white colours by Heather has made this photo all the more interesting. There is strong contrast between the shadows and highlights, giving the image more depth. It feels like I am looking at a network of arteries and blood vessels.
