12 Tips and Tricks for Better Smartphone Photos: here For those who would like to do more with your cell/Smartphone, this video is long (26 minutes), but it is done by a professional photographer and he covers a lot of information, from adding apps/programs to give you more control of your camera to composition tips.

Challenge 1
Chromatic Harmony in Spring:
Capture the essence of springtime scenes that showcase the rich palette of colors typically associated with the season, such as pastel tones, lush greens, vibrant flowers, and clear blue skies. The focus should be on achieving chromatic harmony within the composition, where colors complement and enhance each other to create visually pleasing and balanced images. Experimentation with different lighting conditions, perspectives, and subjects helps to achieve diverse and compelling results. Some ideas to get you started:
Show us your image in Colour.
Challenge 2: Capturing the Interesting (This will be the on-going theme for fall photo show)
Take photos of subjects or scenes that personally interest you, focusing on what you find intriguing, emotive, or visually stimulating. Try to capture the essence of what makes these subjects interesting to you, whether it be through composition, lighting, perspective, or emotional resonance. Some ideas to get you started:
Show us one or two in Colour or Black and White.
Personal Challenge for all photos:
Evaluate your own photos and consider what you might want to change in future shots. Some things you may want to ask yourself:
How effectively do you feel the photo captures the interesting aspects of the subject? Is the composition well-balanced, leading the viewer's eye to the focal point of interest? Does it utilize techniques such as leading lines, framing, or symmetry to enhance visual appeal? Does the photo evoke the intended emotions or convey a particular atmosphere? How successfully does it communicate your personal connection to the subject? Is the photo technically well-executed, with appropriate exposure, focus, and sharpness? Are there any distracting elements or technical flaws? Does the photo offer a unique or innovative perspective on the subject? Does it demonstrate creative use of techniques or unconventional approaches to photography?
