Details: Weekly Photography Challenge
This week your photography challenge is to take and share a photo on the theme of ‘details’. The object of the challenge is to drill down a little to focus upon elements within a scene. This technique has been talked about over the last week or so by Christina in her Details in Wedding Photography series but applies to all aspects of photography.
So grab your camera this weekend and allow your eye to be drawn to elements within the places that you go that you might otherwise have missed and have a go at photographing these details.
Once you’ve taken and selected the ‘Speed’ image that you’d like to share – upload it to your favourite photo sharing site or blog and either share a link to it or – embed them in the comments using the our new tool to do so.
If you tag your photos on Flickr, Instagram, Twitter or other sites with Tagging tag them as #DPSDETAILS to help others find them. Linking back to this page might also help others know what you’re doing so that they can share in the fun.
Also – don’t forget to check out some of the great shots posted in last weeks challenge – SPEED challenge where there were some great shots submitted.

If you search around in the garden then you can find all sorts of different creatures in various positions.
This snail was hanging off a leaf:

It does not have to be creatures. So often we walk past buildings but do not take the time to really see all the detail in them:
