Today, more people take pictures with their phones than with anything else, including cameras. I grabbed this shot at my niece’s wedding last month just as a friend was nabbing a photo of the bride and her maid of honor. Another cleaver method of photography that’s starting to get a lot of use is taking a picture of someone else taking a picture and seeing the image on that device, like this cell phone or the back of a digital camera. So, get cleaver, get creative, and have fun with this one.
IN A NEW POST CREATED FOR THIS CHALLENGE, SHARE A PHOTO OR TWO (OR THREE OR…) OF SOMEONE ELSE TAKING A PICTURE, ESPECIALLY IF WE CAN SEE WHAT THEY SEE.
Everyone is welcome to participate, even if your blog isn’t about photography. Here’s how it works:
- Each week, I’ll come up with a theme and post a photo that I think fits. You take photographs based on your interpretation of the theme, and post them on your blog (a new post!) anytime before the following Thursday, when the next photo theme will be announced.
- To make it easy for others to check out your photos, title your blog post “A Photo a Week Challenge: (theme of the week)” and be sure to use the “postaday″ and “Photo a Week” tags.
- Come back here and post a link to your image in the comments for this challenge.
- Follow nancy merrill photography so that you don’t miss out on weekly challenge announcements.

That’s always fun, Nancy.

Thanks, janet!
I really like the idea and you captured that beautifully. I think I should be very lucky to get a similar shot (but the subject in yours was perfect, the romantic blur just suited it so well) or I’d need to set this up very carefully (I don’t think I have the patience – or corroborative people).
Oh, thank you! I was in the right place at the right time to capture this. And you are right that it doesn’t always work out (I usually find that either the background is way overexposed or the image on the camera/phone is too dark).
I keep thinking — maybe i should get a better phone? But I don’t LIKE cell phones. i just don’t. so I guess i will have to cope with too many cameras and lenses! Love this post!
Thanks, Marilyn!
Thanks for the challenge…my result on a camera taken with another camera was a bit dark too…but I hope it does illustrate the meme! https://marshaleith.wordpress.com/2017/10/06/a-photo-a-week-challenge-picture-in-picture/

A great theme – sorry I missed this one!
The challenges never close, so you can still create a post for it.
