Photography has the power of lightening up our lives; and what a great thing it is to start our days by checking out some beautiful images in the comfort of our homes!
Here is our weekly wrap-up – you'll find finely curated photos from the general chit chat blended with some creative shots from Tersha's 580th challenge on DIY Shadow Effects! And of course, we'll introduce some worth-seeing shots from the Feedback Forum too!
And why not mention it, this particular challenge was especially crowded, and it was a beautiful joy picking the featured shots!
Photo Of The Week – March 7th, 2022

This time POTW goes to @rshattil and his clever idea.
The photo is an open invitation to all of us to expand our creativity and try something new and unusual. Except for being rather fun, this image is also well-composed and well-lit.
Congrats, Click!
What Are Our Members Up To?
Pour some coffee and enjoy our favorite shots from this shadowy challenge!

What You Shouldn't Be Missing From The Light Stalking Community
Charmaine shared a photograph that aids us to reflect on the stormy events surrounding the current global drama we are now living on the verge of.

Jim took some photos in Bushy Park, Whanganui, New Zealand. This is a male Hihi bird he captured with his camera.

A couple of weeks ago Marty shared this photo of a newly-hatched Dog Day Cicada unfolding its wings which we found marvelous!

Elin captured one of the first signs of spring.

And Dave shared this shot of a Western Scrub Jay.

And if you want to see more shots, take a look at the Members Picks! A place where our community is able to share their favorite photographs from our forums every week.
We'd Love To Hear Your Thoughts
Also, our Feedback Forum got some nice pictures, and is clear that some of you have started building a solid photography style. This is the right place for all those people that want to grow fast as photographers.
Here, you'll get your work critiqued by plenty of well-intended people, but you'll also have the chance of critiquing your peers. We truly believe in the power of criticism and feedback. Here are some of the most interesting shots shared during the last week:
- Entwined
- Some Seals on Some Rocks in the Water
- Edits
- The Gambler
- What do ya Think?
- Guidelines for Cropping?
- What do ya Think?
- Handheld waterfalls
- The City View
- On the paddle steamer Waimarie, Whanganui
The Shark Tank is a great place to learn and to discuss, so please read the instructions in order to get a better critique experience. Share your comments, opinions, and doubts on any or all of the images above. We also will be delighted to see some of your own images. Don't be shy, critiques are given to photographs and not photographers.
Also, don't forget to participate in our 581st challenge on Lighting for Dark and Moody Photography!
