dPS Weekly Photo Challenge – Birds in Flight

The post dPS Weekly Photo Challenge – Birds in Flight appeared first on Digital Photography School. It was authored by Sime.

This week’s photography challenge is all about capturing birds in flight. Whether you’re near a park, a beach, or your backyard, the dynamic nature of birds in motion offers a thrilling subject to photograph. The challenge here is to freeze these fleeting moments with sharp detail, capturing the grace of a bird mid-flight, or use slower shutter speeds for creative motion blur.

To succeed, you’ll need to master your camera’s settings. Fast shutter speeds (1/1000s or faster) are key for freezing motion, while a wider aperture will help with focusing on your subject and blurring the background. Additionally, using burst mode will increase your chances of getting that perfect shot, as birds can be unpredictable in their movements.

Think creatively with your compositions! Try framing birds against vibrant skies, or with interesting landscapes in the background. Experiment with different angles and perspectives to convey not only the bird’s movement but the environment they’re part of. Share your best shot with the community and challenge yourself to learn from others’ work.
