Assignment #253: Shades of Green

With only a few more weeks of summer left, before the leaves start to change into bursts of fall color, let’s celebrate the season and capture the shades of green that surround us. Rolling hills, macros of leaves, mossy rocks, wildlife in a scene of green, reptiles, insects or birds, a cluster of lily pads on a pond—these are just a few examples. So grab your camera and get outside—we want to see your most creative images showing the greens of nature. Deadline is August 10 at midnight.—Kristan Ashworth, Associate Editor
