FCCP 2023 Virtual Photo Challenge 6: Fill The Frame.

Please read the Details of this Challenge, before signing up.

You don’t need an expensive camera or equipment to make use of fill the frame photography. You can use your phone or whatever camera you have.

When creating your composition, ask yourself what exactly you are trying to capture. It could be an expression on your child’s face, an architectural detail, or a cascading waterfall.

Now, move closer to the subject until it fills your camera’s viewfinder or LCD screen. A zoom lens also works to fill the frame, but it definitely isn’t necessary.

Your own two feet work just as well. As you move around your scene, you can play around with different angles to create a more powerful image, but getting up close and personal to your subject is the #1 goal here.

Here are a few "Fill The Frame" photos to get you thinking. https://tinyurl.com/yf2u8kfx

With Challenges, it's OK to start taking photos as soon as the event is posted. However, if you find yourself unable to take a photo during any month, it's OK to upload one from your archive, but please include a caption stating that it's "From My Archive." Add captions and comments on all your photos. Include information about where and why you took the photo.

Once you have completed the Challenge go to the RSVP page and upload your photos to the event. Please limit the size of your photos to a long edge of approx 2,000 pixel and don't start uploading photos to Meetup before 5:00 PM, Wednesday 6/21/2023. You may want to consider also posting your photos to our Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/FLCCP/ Please group all your Facebook photos for any one Challenge together, so as not to overwhelm the feed.

All group members are encouraged to enjoy the photos that are posted by the participants of this Challenge and add comments of encouragement and appreciation.

Good luck and good shooting.
