I send a warm greeting to the SteemitBlog team; through this publication I present my proposal to organize an individual Challengers for the SEC-20 season.
The Challenge Proposal: |
|---|
Item | Description |
|---|---|
| Beginner (but open to any steemian) | |
| Macrophotography | |
| Macrophotography with a cell phone for beginners | |
| Challenge-based learning | |
| Based on a weekly challenge, the participant puts into practice his skills to take close-up macro photos with his cell phone. |
Skills to be developed in the participant:
✅ Differentiates a macro photograph from other types of photography based on: close-up achieved to the subject, focus-sharpness, background management.
✅ Take macro photos with your cell phone, making the most of your equipment.
✅ Develop your “Photographic Eye”, handling the elements of photographic composition.
✅ Apply framing, reframing and cropping to enhance your macro photos.
What will the Dynamic be?:
Weekly we will focus on a theme from which to put into practice the skills of capturing close-up macro photos. In order to improve this competence.
With each weekly Challenge, the participant performs at least:
1️⃣ A critical thinking activity, reasoning and expressing his opinion based on the question generating the challenge.
2️⃣ Practical activities or exercises, consisting of taking (3) macro photos following the specifications of the challenge.
3️⃣ Prepare a post, where he presents at least three macro photos that he has captured that same week following the instructions of each exercise, as evidence of his learning and evolution.

Será emocionante usar mi teléfono para ello. En aquel tiempo usaba una camarita Kodak.
Éxitos amigo 👍
hola @lunasilver
Me hiciste recordar tambien las reuniones en discord donde varios fotografos de Steemit le hacian curación a las publicaciones de fotografías que tomabas par la plataforma, recibí muchos consejos y alientode parte de ellos.
Estás cordialmente invitada a practicar macrofotografía con tu celular. Nos vemos
Gracias por pasar y comentar.
Yeah macro photography is too a good idea to learn. Mostly mobiles are having this feature and so do I, I can also interact with this challenge.
Hi @growwithme
Yes, I've learned a lot about macro photos using your phone's camera lately, mainly by practicing but also by doing research.
You're welcome.
Your post has been rewarded by the Seven Team.
