PhotoBite Kids Challenge #15 – Landscape

Another classic photo challenge this time, as our first series of challenges for kids aged between 5-15 nears completion. This time, we look at the hugely popular field of landscape photography.

Basically, landscape photography is the act of capturing a wide shot. This could be amongst rolling hills, beaches, mountains or pretty much wherever you choose.

The first recorded photograph was shot from a window using a contraption called camera obscure, so you don’t necessarily have to travel to capture your landscape photograph[s].

We’ve devised an introduction video in which our resident photography expert, Professor Gardner, will give some ideas, tips and tricks on how to approach this fabulous challenge. As ever, whatever you choose to shoot, think about your light source and shooting angles to make the most of your pictures. Most importantly, have fun and think carefully about your shots before you hit the button. Be sure to experiment and HAVE FUN!

You can use any device you’d like for our challenges. Ideally a camera, but if you don’t have one of those yet, use a smartphone or tablet instead. Send us your pictures using the hashtag #PhotoBiteKids, share with your friends and make sure you ask your older brothers or sisters, your parents or friends to send for you if need be.

Also, send us your ideas for future photo challenges and we’ll give shoutouts for any that we include! Good luck and get shooting!
