New Photo Challenge 27 May - 3 June

[Karen]

This weeks challenge was suggested by nclauri and it is to take a wide view shot of a scene/items and then a close up of something within that scene, here it is in her own words :)

"So I thought a photo challenge using at least two photos. One of the overall look and then maybe a close up of what we may have missed because we didn't take the time to LOOK."

A great challenge, one I'm looking forward to doing :)
So go to it, post in the Photography Challenge (http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/gallery/showgallery.php?cat=615) Gallery by Friday 3rd June.

Snoops its great that you're gonna have a go at this challenge, but you don't need to go far :) try and find something around your home or garden, I intend to just go outside my backdoor, its autumn here and the trees are covered in wonderful colourful leaves, so thats where my photos are coming from.
You have a 10wk old, how about a full sized portrait and then just one of their hand/foot/eye :), I'm sure you'll come up with something :)

[Marsha_Ohio]

Okay, so can someone give an example? Is it two seperate pictures or do we some how make it one? Does anyone have one for an example of what we are supposed to be doing? Thanks!

[snoops]

Marsha

from what i understand.. is its 2 photos. one of a wide angle view and one would be macro of what you would of missed had you not stopped and taken the time to look.. so say its a field of over grown weeds... and in the middle you spot a beautiful flower... so the first pic would be the wide angle of teh field of weeds and the 2nd pic would be the flower you nearly missed.. i hope this helps some..

I don't know what these little flowers are called...but they sure did look neat hanging there in the swamp.

These are actually pictures I took over the weekend. I'm going to try to take new pictures to submit.

We just got a new computer and I haven't been able to load Photoshop on it yet. It came with Paint Shop Pro, I've been trying to work with it, but it's making me crazy. I guess it's true that your first is always your best! ;)

Here's mine.
The wide photo was pretty horrible when I downloaded it - tried to fix it as best as I could.

I have a useless macro as well so this isn't the greatest either

At least, I managed to do the challenge this week though. :D

[Audrey]

You all did great with this challenge! I haven't had time to comment on any of the photos for awhile, but hope to soon!
Karen asked me to help out with setting up the poll for this challenge, since she's away from the computer for a few days. I will try my best to set up the poll this weekend:)
Thanks for your patience! :)

[Audrey]

It was very difficult to pick the top 10 finalists for this challenge since you all did a great job! I sure hope you're all encouraged to keep coming back for more! :)
Here's the link to the poll for this week's challenge:
