#LifeInLockdown challenge

Share your photo to capture these unusual times

Whilst we are living through unique circumstances, share a photograph of yours that reflects your take on #LifeInLockdown.

Last month, young people rose to our challenge by capturing images of Spring 2020 to create a photo gallery – My Favourite Thing. Now we are inviting everyone to create a personal image that will contribute to a visual document of this moment.

Be inspired by any connotations that the phrase “Life In Lockdown” embodies, perhaps reflecting the positive alongside the negative. Your unique point of view is more important than your photographic expertise – all contributions are welcomed!

We will celebrate your creative responses by creating a Facebook film and online gallery to represent #LifeInLockdown. We’re delighted to have Paul Crowley of 366daysofphotography on board to give his expert assistance, alongside support from East Herts District Council.
