Nature Club 1000
One thousand photographs of nature. Eight belts. A lifetime of noticing.
You'll be given a prompt — the best tree you see today, something tiny, a spiral. You go and look, you take one photograph, you log it. Then you do it again. No camera required beyond the one in your pocket.
Eight belts
Twelve photographs earns your White Belt. Each belt after that is $29 USD on its own, or included for Flower Club members.

Why
You don't need more nature. You need to notice more of it.
Looking closely at nature is the quiet skill behind every good arrangement — and a good reason to go outside. Keep it as a private journal, or share what you find with the club.
Questions
Frequently asked questions
- What is the Nature Club 1000?
- The Nature Club 1000 is a challenge to take and record one thousand photographs of nature. Like the Flower Club 1000, it is organised into eight belts that unlock in order.
- Do I need a proper camera?
- No. A phone is enough. The challenge is about noticing what is around you and recording it, not about equipment.
- What counts as nature?
- Anything living or growing, and the landscapes and weather around it: street trees, weeds, insects, seed heads, skies, rock, water. City nature counts as much as wilderness.
- Do I need to know what I photographed?
- No. Each entry asks what it is and where you found it, but both can be left as a guess or a description. Naming things is something you pick up along the way.
