MCP Photography and Editing Challenge: Highlights from this Week

This week’s photography challenge is all about getting in shape; no spandex, push-ups or gym time required. As a matter of fact, the goal is not symmetry or perfect form, but interesting angles and shapes. This week the MCP Shoot Me Group challenge is to practice manipulating shapes; finding new ways to group things, making triangles with interesting angles.

We loved seeing everyone’s take on this theme. Here are a few of our favorites, but make sure to check the album on the group page for more.

You can use the photography challenges as a way to grow as a photographer.  Be creative, try new things and shoot these images for yourself.   You have the support of a large group of photographers who can assist you and give you feedback as you work on specific themes and skills.

The team would like to thank everyone who submitted a photo for the challenge. You still have another week to capture a shot for this theme, so come join our Facebook Group and participate now.

Our editing challenges give you a chance to edit other photographer’s images, share them for critique, and see how others edit the same photographs.  Participating allows you to practice editing, learn how to give constructive criticism, and watch what steps or Photoshop actions and Lightroom presets are used in various edits.  Join us to edit the bi-weekly photos.

If you have an idea on how you’d edit the image below, or want to see and learn what others did, JOIN US HERE.

Again, we would like to thank Sue Zeller for allowing us to use this photo.  The current challenges are linked at the top of the group. Remember, you can also ask for critique on your edit.

We will have a new edit challenge starting Monday, so come back to see what image you can edit then.
