For this week’s topical photography project our picture editors would like you to share photographs that illustrate solidarity.
Perhaps you recently attended your first protest or march, or captured a moment which made your feel a sense of unity. We’re interested in images that are literal or conceptual, so if you want to interpret this project creatively, we’re open to that.
Our picture editors will publish a gallery of some of their favourite images and share with you what they admire about the photographs they’ve chosen, and some of the skills necessary to develop as a photographer. You have until 9am on Monday 22 May to upload your images and we will publish the gallery on Tuesday 23 May and set our next theme on the same day.
You can see the galleries of readers’ photographs from the series so far here.
What makes a good photograph?
Click here to see some advice on this from Fiona Shields, the Guardian’s head of photography. Think carefully about why you are uploading your shot, and tell us a little about it in the caption, for example where it was taken and when, and why you thought the subject would make for a successful image.
How to upload your photographs
To upload your images via GuardianWitness click the blue “contribute” buttons on this article. Please upload the highest resolution image you have – this will help us display the photograph in our gallery and will also allow our picture editors to consider featuring some of the best images in print.
