Are you ready for some optical creativity? This week's challenge comes with a pretty interesting theme, FREELENSING! Freelensing is a photography technique used with interchangeable film-based and digital lens systems. It is achieved by detaching the lens from the camera and using it hand-held in front of the lens during exposure. Enjoy this fun selection of freelensing shots our community shares for the 660th weekly photography challenge!
Photo Of The Week – September 18th, 2023
This time, POTW goes to @tersha.
We didn’t have many candidates this week, but those few submitted photos are great!
I picked this rose shot because the freelensing technique made it even more poetic.
Congrats, Diane!
What Are Our Members Up To?
Pour some coffee or tea and have fun with these creative shots!

This challenge made me think, is there a technical difference between Lightroom and Photoshop for these types of images? Please, let us know in the comments below!

Here, you'll get your work critiqued by plenty of well-intended people, but you'll also have the chance to critique your peers. We truly believe in the power of criticism and feedback. Here are some of the most interesting shots shared during the last week:
The Shark Tank is a great place to learn and discuss, so please read the instructions in order to get a better critique experience.
