What’s in the Bag?! Photography Challenge

What’s in the Bag?

What’s in the bag, is a creative photography challenge that begins with a little brown bag.

The challenge starts with five everyday items. Each item offers a challenge designed to challenge your creativity.

There are only a limited number of bags available, but don’t worry if you miss out on a bag – most items can found around the home. We’ll update this on all our channels once the challenge is underway.

Create your images

You may work as individuals or groups to create an image of each item. You are encouraged to be as creative as possible with your items – this may mean that you change or alter it in some way, turn it into something else, use it in an unexpected manner, etc.

You may use alternative versions of the items (ie if one of the items is a lightbulb but you have a special one which looks cooler, you may use that instead).

Entry Details

There are 3 ways to enter your images:

• You can email your image to comms@wps.org.nz Max size is 4mb, JPEG only
  Please label your images with the item used and your name.
• You can enter via Instagram, tag your image with #wpsinthebag & tag @wgtnphotographicsociety. Please note which item you have used in your description.
