Next Week’s Photo Challenge: Nightmare

For next week’s photo challenge we will be having an all digital photography champion award:

LORD OF THE NIGHTMARE!

That’s right all of my photo classes will be participating in this. For this photo challenge you will submit TWO images that illustrates some sort of a nightmarish situation. You could recreate an actual nightmare you had as a child or you are currently having, or you could just aim for shooting something really scary. Either way you want the look and any text in the image to look quite frightening.

TWO photos due on 5/18.

Uploaded to Flickr, added to HHS Photography and uploaded to Google Classroom.

Required Response: Post three ideas you have for this photo challenge as a comment to this post.
