Welcome to New Mundane Monday Challenge.
Mundane Monday Challenge : Learn Photography
Yes, this is a new version of MM challenge. MMC has changed, hopefully for better.
There are two ways to look at this challenge. One is to look around and find beauty. That is a great way to look at mundane things and be grateful for them. It can help one to change their perspective and helps one to understand that nothing is Ordinary.
The second way to approach this challenge is to look around and find beautiful frames. Try to include a mundane object in such frame. And by following or un-following the composition guidelines, make them look great. This not only helps you to with changing the perspective, but also with improving your photography skills.
Now unlike previous MMCs, I want you to focus on making interesting frames and photographs. So the focus is more on photography.
Now I want you to make beautiful compositions of those seemingly mundane objects.
I have already written down a few guidelines on how to try and make a mundane setting into a beautiful frame. Below you can find the link
To get the most out from this challenge here are some: Guidelines
The new challenge, from here onwards will be called
Mundane Monday Challenge : Learn Photography
This is a challenge created to find beauty in almost everything. The challenge is simple : find beauty in everyday mundane things and frame it beautifully and upload the photographs. And give me a pingback by including the url of this post in your challenge post.
If you think this challenge helps you to see ordinary things in a more beautiful way and to improve your photography, do help a friend to improve their skills too. You are free to Tag/Challenge a friend to join MMC, so that world around us look more beautiful to more people around us.
Here goes my entry for this week’s MMC.

The color combination looks very nice. Really, beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder.

I can’t seem to help bringing up the “rule of thirds” in these threads. Interestingly, the light right hand wall takes about a third of the space, and the dark floor about a third. Also your main subject there is centred at about a third of the way horizontally. I’m sure one doesn’t measure these things, but they come out roughly so.
I like the high contrast. That adds a bit of grunge aesthetics to the photo, which you might say is appropriate.

I did crop this picture. So it ended up following the rule of thirds. Glad you liked the contrasting colours as well. Thank you.

Hi, Jithin. I’m not sure if this image is the second approach for MMC or still the first one. I felt this would go good for the challenge & so posted. Do let me know what you think.
