Category: 2026 Photo challange

Exploring 52 photography themes throughout the year, challenging myself to see, shoot, and tell better visual stories.

  • Week 2 – One color | 2026 Photo Challenge

    Week 2 – One color | 2026 Photo Challenge

    The theme: One color

    Hard way: 1hour time to shoot

    This week I’m in Wollaton Park Nottingham.

    The park is one of Nottingham’s most striking landscapes: a 500-acre historic deer park where nature, architecture, and stillness meet just a few miles from the city centre. At its heart sits Wollaton Hall, an iconic Elizabethan mansion perched above rolling grasslands and framed by tree-lined avenues, offering dramatic views across sweeping lawns and woodlands.

    Here are a few shots taken for this week’s challange.

    Final Thoughts / Next Week Teaser:

    This week was a challange indeed. The English weather combined with day to day activities pushed my photochallange to the last day. But I had fun… real fun. I remembered some stuff from my childhood and traveled back in time when things were simpler. Did I managed to nail this week’s challnge? I guess so. What do you think?

    Next week’s theme: Leading lines

  • Week 1 – Minimalism | 2026 Photo Challenge

    Week 1 – Minimalism | 2026 Photo Challenge

    The theme: MINIMALISM

    Hard way: One subject, one color, no cropping

    Minimalism in photography is about saying more with less. By stripping a scene down to its essential elements, the focus shifts to shape, light, color, and intention. In this challenge, I’m looking for simplicity, clean compositions, and quiet moments where a single subject can carry the entire frame.

    Have I manage to do it? NO definetly not… I was all over the place, but at the same time I’ve learned a lot and the most important thing was that I enjoyed being outside and doing photography again. Maybe I will go out later in the year and I will redo this theme finding my balance and looking for better compositions.

    Here are a few shots taken for this week’s challange. Below the gallery I will show you my favorite shot.

    Final Thoughts / Next Week Teaser:

    Some of the photos are clearly not strictly minimalism, but as a first photo walk and challenge, I’m happy with the results. I really enjoyed being out in nature.

    Next week, I’ll tackle Week 2 – One Color, where I’ll restrict my shots to a single dominant hue.
