Photo Challenge Summer

The theme for the August photo challenge is Summer!

Take a moment to think about what the summer means to you. Is it spending time with family, long days at the beach, or emerging yourself in nature? Show us your favorite summer moments!

Photography Playground’s photo challenge is all about enticing you to pick up your camera and share the beauty you’re creating.

The Photo Challenge Rules

  • Stick to the theme. For August the theme is summer.
  • You can send in your photos for this challenge until August 31, 2022.
  • Karin van Mierlo will choose up to six of her favorite images as winners.
  • The winning photos will be published on the Photography Playground website and social media channels.
  • You can submit a maximum of four photos per challenge.
  • Include a title, the month of the challenge, and your full name when you name your files. (ex: sunset_august_your-name)
  • Please, share your Instagram account if you have one, so I can credit you when I share the winners on Instagram.
  • You can submit your photos by sending an email to karin@photography-playground.com and/or by sharing them in the Photography Playground Facebook Group in the designated thread.

So, what are you waiting for? Grab your camera and create some summer magic.

“Your approach to photography inspires me and is wonderful to read. In contrast to all those websites and books about technology and gear, your approach opens a completely different door for me. Instead of reasoning, it triggers my imagination.”

-Roeland

“Great examples were given to illustrate what we would try to capture via the prompts.  Most of all Karin and the other students were very supportive – a no-judgment zone.”
