Trees begin filling their branches, and everywhere you look new shoots and buds are unfolding in a wide array of colours. Spring is a great time to be a photographer, and it?s the perfect time to launch our Plant Life round of <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/amateurphotographer.co.uk\/features\/APOY_2009_Competition_features_278467.html\">APOY 2009<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>The possibilities in this round are almost limitless. The number of species of plants and ways in which you can show off their interesting qualities means there is no right or wrong picture to be taken. Perhaps you are drawn to still lifes and get great afternoon light streaming through your kitchen window. Or maybe a wider view of your local garden centre appeals. It could be a close-up of the texture on the cabbage leaves at your allotment, or even the base of a tree looking up.<\/p>\n<p>These are just a few examples. Take lots of pictures and try a number of subjects and compositions to see which you think works best. To the right we?ve provided a few helpful tips to help get you started.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Patterns<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/keyassets.timeincuk.net\/inspirewp\/live\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2009\/04\/Huelgoat.jpg\" hspace=\"10\" vspace=\"10\" align=\"left\" class=\" alignleft\"><\/img>While the bane of many photographers, grey, overcast days (which we never seem to lack) provide a nice, even light and can be a great opportunity to start thinking in monotone. Spring doesn?t have to be all about colour. Rather than seeking out the boldest, brightest blooms, you might go out with your camera in search of patterns and shapes. It?s all around you this time of year but can be hard to notice among all that colour. As with these trees, when you?re emphasising patterns a subtle change in perspective can add more drama to your composition.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Macro<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/keyassets.timeincuk.net\/inspirewp\/live\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2009\/04\/Opener1.jpg\" align=\"right\" class=\" alignright\"><\/img>Macro photography no longer requires an expensive lens. Even many digital compacts these days have exceptional macro functions that produce great results. That said, you will still get your best results with an SLR and a dedicated macro lens. Whatever you use, the key to a good macro image is to fill your frame with your subject and make sure you have pin-sharp focus on the most important part of your image. Remember that when you?re working closer in like this, camera position means everything. Any slight movement can alter a composition, so use a tripod or whatever you have to hand to keep your camera still.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Angles and backgrounds<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/keyassets.timeincuk.net\/inspirewp\/live\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2009\/04\/Thistle1.jpg\" hspace=\"10\" vspace=\"10\" align=\"left\" class=\" alignleft\"><\/img>Not every image of a plant has to be macro to be effective. Quite the contrary. Think of all the great wideangle pictures you?ve seen of swaying rape fields or symmetrical rows of forest trees. Try experimenting with different angles and backgrounds to see what works. For wider shots, try getting down low to make your subjects loom larger in the frame, or stand on something to get an overview. For closer shots, try putting a piece of coloured paper or fabric behind your plant to create a more vivid background. <\/p>\n<p><strong>1st prize<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/keyassets.timeincuk.net\/inspirewp\/live\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2009\/04\/APOY_202009_201st_20prize_20100d1.jpg\" align=\"right\" class=\" alignright\"><\/img><\/p>\n<p>Our first-place winner will receive Canon?s 10.1MP EOS 1000D, worth \u00a3459.99.
