Night-time Scavenger Hunt

Night-time Scavenger Hunt

A Photography Scavenger Hunt is a fun way to stretch your photography and creative skills alongside other Photographers, especially in the dark!

There will be 20 prompts from which you will choose 10 to photograph. There will be a prize for best overall image and a random spot prize for a lucky photographer. Entries are via Instagram (just tag the society) or Email (comms@wps.org.nz – please name your image with the number prompt and your name).

All skill levels are welcome, all cameras are welcome. Film, Digital, Mobile, Point & Shoot. There are no limits. Some prompts may require a tripod so bring one along if you would like.
