Over on Facebook this week I started a thread that asked people to complete the sentence:

“Behind Every Good Photographer There’s…..“

The response to the thread was fantastic (well over 400 responses so far), there was both insightful and funny responses.

A number of readers asked if they could submit visual answers so I thought perhaps it’d make a good weekly assignment. So – finish that sentence, but with an image to show us.

What (or perhaps Who) is behind you as a photographer? Feel free to take your response in any direction, perhaps it is a person, perhaps it’s about your gear, perhaps it is some kind of resource, perhaps its some kind of principle that you can put into a picture.

If you’re lost on what to do – take a look at the answers on the facebook thread to get a little inspiration.

Once you’ve taken your image, upload it to your favourite photo sharing site and either share a link to it below or embed it in the comments using the our new tool to do so. Please also tell us what type of camera phone you were using!

If you tag your photo on Flickr, Twitter or other sites with Tagging tag it as #DPSChallenge to help others find it. Linking back to this page might also help others know what you’re doing so that they can share in the fun.
