How do we capture these fleeting moments? Perhaps it is a candid moment you’ve serendipitously captured with your camera, perhaps you’ve been in on a secret – like a surprise birthday party or marriage proposal, or perhaps it is staged. Either way, try to convey that emotion with your image.
Here are some lovely examples of staged surprise or anger to inspire you on alamy:

(Heads up – next week’s challenge will be Insects and Spiders)
I couldn’t find any examples from our cluster gallery, but this image from our competition gallery is one of my favourites:
Thanks to Che for this suggestion.
You have until next Tuesday to upload your image to Cluster. Members have all been sent an invitation to join and most have done so already. If you have any trouble feel free to email Esther. We also encourage you to leave encouraging comments for other members.
I would love to receive your suggestions/requests for future challenges. Please leave them as a comment under the challenge notification in Cluster or Facebook.
We will also post this competition on our “Friends of BCC” Facebook group so our friends can still participate by sharing their images on Facebook.
