Easter weekend is over and there is a big cloud of 'meh' hovering over us... trying to get work done from home and wondering when our 'normal' lives will resume.
I'm telling you that the cloud has a silver lining.
I created a 21-day photo a day challenge just before lockdown was announced as a way of cheering up our insta community and flood the internet with happy dog photos so we can stay creative and even get to make a few new friends while staying home.
The photo a day challenge on my instagram page is close to 350+ posts! Thank you for taking part and spreading doggy goodness and positivity!
As per request, the #ylphotochallenge has been extended! YAY!
So if you were thinking of joining, take part, this is your chance. Start on day 1 or day 22 tomorrow with the rest of the group
I try share each post to my stories!
I'm also posting the prompts every day and try to add in ideas or photography tips when the prompt allows.
Tag me @yellowlabpetphoto on instagram to make sure I see it so I can share it to my stories and also use #ylphotochallenge so others can find your post.
