Photo Challenge anyone?

the*scarlet*pimpernel — Tue, 24 Sep 2013 05:18:38 GMT

Now that the weathers warmed up, the days are longer and we are outside more, how about a photo challenge thread. Kind of like the Art thread, but with photos.

Facebook has a good one (probably lots) where a keyword is issued for the week and people go out and get creative. Some of the photos are amazing with clever interpretations of the key word

Editing and filters would be allowed.

Any takers?

A lady runs a photo a day challenge. I thought we could do the same but maybe make it a photo a week.

This is her site september-photo-a-day-the-challenge

I'm interested. How about you start with this weeks subject pimpy then the person who gets the most kudos for their photo picks the subject for the next week. Would that work?

Yep, I reckon so.

Me. I've found my old camera and just the last couple of days have been playing with it.

I got a new camera for my birthday.............I just need to figure out how to use it.

the*scarlet*pimpernel — Tue, 24 Sep 2013 09:06:15 GMT

ok. I have the 'word' I'll start a new thread

Flashie, I thought it was pretty safe, but hmmmm well I guess some folk could turn it in to a slappable pic. so ummmm I guess just try and keep the photos within ebay forum rules......

The prompt for this weeks challenge is TWO

I thought this was going to be another bra thread. Well there's two for you.

sorry Joono, it's not meant to be and honestly it didn't occur to me until I started typing that last post.

My ideas were a pair of old boots

a knife and fork

and old couple sitting on a bench

two clouds in the sky.

a leaf and a caterpillar.

a reflection

cup and saucer

coloured balls (two of)

mother and baby.

really, any prompt word could be turned in to smutt if thats the photographers intention.

Anyway, if you (collectively) don't like it I'll change it

No, don't be silly. Two is fine. I will probably not participate but I will enjoy doing some voting.

also the word is a prompt. It doesn't have to be taken literally. It might be a pic of your two year old child, or an item that reminds you of being 2, or maybe two halves of the one face. a broken toy,

I really want this to be fun and look forward to seeing peoples creativity and interpretation of the prompts
