March Photo Challenge ~ Spring

Spring Photo Challenge

The theme for the March photo challenge is Spring!

I long for spring all winter long and I welcome it with open arms and a big smile. I feel like a sunflower when the first sunlight warms my face. I’m always facing the direction of the sun.

To me, spring feels like opening, expanding, and relaxing, especially after the contracting feeling winter gives me.

For the Spring Photo Challenge, I want you to photograph what spring means to you. How does it make you feel? Enjoy the challenge and the season 🌞

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

We all know how to make a selfie or to pose in front of a landmark. Smile when told to and jump when prompted. And it’s great to have those posed pics from the one and only time you did that awesome hike with your newly found friends. Nothing wrong with that. But having authentic shots from your friends and family while you’re traveling is …….. well I would say even greater.
