I was fortunate enough to be somewhere super scenic for this weeks particular challenge. I struggled with week 2 since there wasn't much of a pretty landscape by me at the time. In this case, I'm in Guatape Colombia again where I was lucky enough to climb about 725 steps and get a birds eye view of the lake running through El Peñol...

Week 7 Of The 52 Week Challenge - Portrait: Faceless
I'm still playing catch up with these photos every week but I'm making progress. This week is another one from Colombia in Guatape. After a climb to the top of the rock with amazing views of the lake from last week's photo, we made it back to the car right before sunset. The parking lot is still on top of a mountain overlooking the scenic landscape surrounding us...

Week 6 Of The 52 Week Challenge - Candy
Again, I'm late with this week's photo but I promise I will catch up! I'm currently in Colombia and thought I would be able to find some crazy South American candy here to shoot but I didn't...

Week 5 Of The 52 Week Challenge - Black And White Landscape
I've been extremely busy the past couple of weeks with huge blizzards hitting NYC, traveling to Savannah, GA and moving, so this one is a bit late but that's ok because I knew what was in store for this week. I'm in Colombia for a few weeks so I knew I was going to be able to get some much nicer landscapes out here rather than back home...

Week 3 of The 52 Week Challenge - Red
I thought something as simple as a color would be an easy topic to shoot but it wasn't. The past few days have been freeeeeezing in New York and the only way I go outside is to run to my car and back whenever I have to drive somewhere. I didn't have much red in my house so my ideas were very limited until I ironically realized the infamous red rings on my Canon lenses...

Week 2 of The 52 Week Challenge - Landscape
Last week kicked off the 52 Week Photo Challenge and this week continued with a landscape photograph. This was somewhat challenging for me since I live on Staten Island in New York City and there isn't much landscape or photo-worthy landscape around here. Combine that with it being January and that makes for even less visually pleasing sceneries with the lack of greenery and typically freezing temperatures...

Week 1 Of The 52 Week Photo Challenge - Self Portrait
Before 2015 ended, Fstoppers posted the 52 Week Photo Challenge which stood out to me more than other photo challenges I've seen. I've seen a bunch of 365 photo challenges but there's no guidelines or rules for them, you kind of just shoot one photo a day for a year and thats it. Shooting one photo a week seemed more realistic to do and by having a theme for each week, I would be forced into trying something new every time. Casey Neistat started daily vlogging so that he would have an excuse to make a new movie every day and he says it motivated and improved himself as a filmmaker so I'm hoping this could be a similar aid for myself...
