Mobile Photography – StreetWise – Fourth Challenge Results – ‘Connecting’
Welcome to our fourth StreetWise Challenge Showcase ‘Connecting’ We are thrilled to share it with you! The reason we chose this theme was to inspire images from and of people around the world ‘connecting’ illustrating ways in which we connect to each other. We thought this would be powerful and uplifting, and foster that feeling of community in our group. Thank you so much for participating and sharing your beautiful photographs of how you see people connecting where you live. We were moved by all of the wonderful, inspiring ways this group rose to this challenge — and it was also nice to see some new faces, too, adding ever…

Mobile Photography & Art – The Courage to be Afraid – Showcase for Carolyn Hall Young
Recently, I set up a Facebook group entitled – The Courage to be Afraid – A Tender Tribute to Human Valiance with Carolyn Hall Young. Hall Young is our dear friend and hugely talented artist and many of you are aware that she is currently experiencing particularly challenging health issues. This group was made with love and is full of love from all the artists who have joined this group to create and share their images for her. I have complied each image into a film showcase, so that she can view all of them in one sitting (hopefully). When she is feeling more well, I am sure she will…

Mobile Photography – StreetWise – Second Challenge Results – Shadows
Welcome to our Second StreetWise Challenge Showcase – ‘Shadows’. We are thrilled to share it with you! “Photography is an art of observation. It has little to do with the things you see and everything to do with the way you see them.” Elliott Erwitt We hope that you found this to be an inspiring theme – perhaps seeing the streets around you and those that inhabit them in a new way and perhaps from a perspective that you may not have noticed before. The most difficult part of curating the showcases is choosing a limited number of photos from all of those that were submitted – thank you so…
Mobile Photography – StreetWise – Welcome and Second Challenge
“Taking an image, freezing a moment, reveals how rich reality truly is.” Greetings everyone! Welcome to our second StreetWise Mobile Photography Showcase Challenge. The theme this time is shadows – to shoot street photographs that have shadows in them in black and white, color, or both. Capturing shadows can add an element of depth and visual interest to an image, they can change the mood, enhance the composition, create interesting patterns and shapes, or highlight a subject. Sometimes, the details that we don’t see by the presence of a shadow are more interesting than seeing the subject matter itself. There are endless possibilities whichever way you choose to include shadows in…
Mobile Photography & Art Flickr Group Showcase – 22 May 2016
Currently, I am on a personal quest to discover and build my knowledge of human happiness. It is a vast subject and I do not pertain to elude quiet or even loud wisdom on this matter. Reading Matt Haig’s ‘Reasons to Stay Alive’ book has been quite insightful; I read from many different sources each day. We can search and scan for eternal contentment it can become all encompassing and is it really necessary? I agree with Haig when he quotes the perpetually great poet Emily Dickinson, “that it will never come again is what makes life so sweet”. This weeks mobile photography and art flickr group showcase has been…

Welcome to our May 2016 StreetWise Showcase – we are thrilled to share it with you! “A hundredth of a second here, a hundredth of a second there – even if you put them end to end, they still only add up to one, two, perhaps three seconds, snatched from eternity.” Robert Doisneau We were moved by your photos submitted to our ‘StreetWise’ Flickr group and chose images for the Showcase that are in keeping with our group’s intention and guidelines – “We believe that it is important to focus on the key aspects of the craft of street photography – composition, timing, juxtaposition, catching that decisive moment – rather…
Mobile Photography & Art Flickr Group Showcase – 15 May 2016
Human happiness as many writers will tell you is a mix of the rough and the smooth, the aches and the pains as well as the joys of life. Happiness is neither the journey nor the destination, it is simply something we achieve more often than not when when we travel the right way. The images that you will be drawn to and the music that flows through this weeks mobile photography and art Flickr Group showcase have a sense of quiet wisdom all of their own. It represents a marvellous synthesis of good sense and talent. Enjoy! If you would like your work to be considered for entry into…
