More and more photographers are looking to shake things up and push their creative limits by incorporating unique tools that you may not consider when taking photos. For this month’s Photobug Community challenge, we asked photographers from around the world to share when they used a unique tool that they had in their camera bag.

From Ziploc bags to prisms to pasta strainers, we were not disappointed by what our community shared so keep scrolling to see the magic they captured!
