Do you remember the movie “Honey, I shrunk the kids”? Well, I’m going to ask you something similar for today’s challenge, but don’t worry, it will only be at a photographic level ;).
How does it work? (Reminder)
Every week I will propose a new challenge, it is a topic that you will have to capture in a photograph and upload it to the Facebook page of the blog, putting in the description the keyword that I will indicate for each topic. The themes will be varied, from portraits to Macro photography, through landscapes, black and white photography, or babies. Topics will be proposed Fridayso that you have all the Weekend to work them. You will have one week to upload your photograph (one photo per participant), until Thursday of the following week. On Thursday I will update the article with the photo that has captivated me the most and on Friday I will propose a new topic so that you have the whole weekend to capture your images, and so on…
Weekly Challenge 175: Tiny People (from 09/09/2016 to 09/15/2016)
When it comes to composing your photography, you have numerous resources that we constantly talk about on the blog. But at the landscape level, there is a trick to make the magnitude of it visible. If you just photograph a mountain, the viewer may not know if it is a small mountain, a huge rock, or one of the highest peaks in the world. However, if you introduce the human factor, you will help create scale and thus be able to understand the greatness of the place.
Today I am going to ask you to work on this resource, but not in any way, I want to see tiny people, I want you to show the world how tiny we are compared to nature, or how small we can become compared to a huge building. Remember that it is a matter of perspective, the further away the person (or people) is, the smaller they will seem. You dare? I did not wait something less! 😉
As usual, to participate in this week’s challenge upload your photo to the Facebook wall from the Photographer’s Blog: In the description of the photo please mention the keyword “Tiny People Challenge” followed by a title of your choice.
Alternative Means to Participate
Lwhat If you are not from Facebook, you have the following social networks to participate.
Twitter: uploading the photo directly to Twitter with the hashtag #TinyPeopleChallengeBdF
Happy photography.
Update
And here I leave you with the summary of these tiny people. Thank you for participating another week!
As a highlight of this week I want to mention the image of Nobody Juliana Proaños Jurado. I loved that game of the huge footprint in the foreground and the tiny person in the background. The footfall not only guides the viewer’s gaze directly to the center of interest, but by using such a low perspective, it draws the eye immediately. Once again, we can see how a different perspective completely changes the effect of the photograph. And I thought it was great about a giant footprint confronted with a tiny person. A great message in a simple but impressive photograph. I would have taken away a little bit of sky, even so… congratulations Nobody Juliana for such an interesting composition!
