KeymasterHey guys, a quick bonus assignment with a short deadline and sweet prize for those who are looking for a little extra something to take pictures of!
âą Publisher: IBLPâs Biblical Character Illustrated Curriculum
âą Purpose: Photo will be published in a new booklet on the character quality of Wisdom.
âą Request: A picture of weeds that naturally grow in your garden that specifically illustrates the idea of “choking out good growth”. Similarly, doing what comes naturally to us blocks out the best that God has planned for us from His infinite perspective.
âą Special Instructions: No people in the pictures.
âą Orientation: Doesn’t matter. Prefer vertical.
âą Photo Specs: JPG or DNG, at least 2000px longest edge. Edit however you like. No watermarks.
âą How to Submit: Members can follow the A, B, C process outlined here. (Instructions for non-members can be viewed here.) You can submit up to 10 photos.
âą Remuneration: Lenspiration members will receive a $20 coupon for the IBLP webstore!
âą Terms: By submitting your photo(s) on this forum, you agree to the terms outlined in the STS Photo Assignment Agreement.
âą Deadline: Midnight Saturday, November 16, 2020 (or until this topic is no longer highlighted yellow).November 7, 2020 at 6:18 pm #55090Blessings Captured

KeymasterHaha, that’s great. đ That last one has a great emphasis on the surrounding growth, and the growth looking more obviously like weeds. Overall, great lighting and great framing! Never seen such artistic pictures of a weed-filled garden. đ

ParticipantFinally! The rain stopped this morning and I was able to get outside and photograph our garden’s precise example of “good growth getting choked out”!
We have this one butternut squash that grew through the chicken wire fence around the garden. When the squash was young and small, it fit through the wire just fine, but as it grew, the fence choked it and it was stuck there….all further growth restricted by the wire around its throat. It was left alone: now pretty much good for nothing…except getting its picture taken! đ

KeymasterGetting back from the FEW Conference last weekend . . . delighted to see so many submissions had come in!
Hilarious, @bennett-family! Literally, “choked” đ
Not exactly the best time of year for weeds here in the northern hemesphere, but glad you were finding things Esther and @martha-lapp.
For once, an assignment that @creative-click-photography has an advantage on! đ
This was fun, guys! We’ll see what the publishers think. đ Will plan to critique these photos in the next webinar (Nov 24) https://www.lenspiration.com/webinar/photo-critique-59/

KeymasterAs you can see in the replay (http://www.lenspiration.com/webinar59), the winner has not yet been chosen! We shall continue to wait and see what happens. đ
PS. In correction to what I said in the webinar, the next photo assignment will actually be launched on December 4.

KeymasterWell folks, I am the bearer of bad news today. đ Esther said the curriculum team ultimately decided to “go with a different type of picture this time instead of one of these.” She was very sorry. I suppose we can’t really know about these bonus assignment sometimes! Thank you for all the effort you put into shooting them anyway.
