New Mundane Challenge - Lampshade

May 18th, 2020
Thank you to Merrelyn @merrelyn for hosting the last mundane challenge, and to all who played along.

The theme for the next mundane challenge is "lampshade". I was actually surprised that it hadn't been a topic yet.

Wikipedia defines a lampshade as "a fixture that covers the light bulb on a lamp to diffuse the light it emits. Lampshades can be made out of a wide variety of materials like paper, glass, fabric or stone. Usually conical or cylindrical in shape, lampshades can be found on floor, desk, tabletop, or suspended lamps. The term can also apply to the glass hung under many designs of ceiling lamp."

You can use any photographic technique you like to capture this everyday object. THE MAIN RULE: there can be no question that the object of the challenge is the star! So try not to let your props steal the attention away from this mundane object.


Start of the challenge: Today May 17, 2020
Finish of the challenge: June 7, 2020 (all time zones considered)

Tag for the challenge: mundane-lampshade
