Create a photograph of a team or group of three persons or things that, working together, have or might accomplish something worthwhile.

So it doesn't have to be people then, it can be anything that works well as a "threesome"?

Awwwww I just did that in a challenge. I wonder if something like this would count.

Yep, any "threesome" would be accepted.

Man, I have SO many ideas for this one, but I already know that I won't be able to accomplish them because I can't get the models for them.
If only I was at college right now, I would easily be able to ask some friends, but school hasn't started yet for me, and the rest of my family is either extremely busy or extremely unwilling to model. Sigh...

I guess I could try to get lucky and find a candid moment involving three.

ok, gonna stir the pot a little...

i see 3 people (or objects) in all the examples above, but i do not see how any of them fit the second part of the description,

"...working together, have or might accomplish something worthwhile."

so, in my opinion, they would be pretty close to DNMC

thoughts?

since "amigo" means "friend," it is a little redundant to have "friends achieving friendship", no?

yes, the bikers could be achieving health, bit they are doing it individually and just happen to be in group doing it. now, if three of them were towing a forth one up the hill, then it would seem they would be achieving something worthwhile AS A TEAM OF 3 (and doing something they probably could not do as a single biker).

get my point?

I think any 3 people will work, technically. Any 3 people might work together to accomplish something. But objects? That's not so much a given... I can see, for example, an avocado, a jalapeno, and a lime "accomplishing" a guacamole, but would the voters appreciate that?

Hmm, what if I very narrowly interpret "accomplishing something worthwhile". If I don't personally consider the task being done to be "worthwhile", then I can feel free to lob some 1's, right?.

You should always feel free to lob some well deserved 1's.

Very easy. You could even have done it yourselve.

Why is it so darn hard to take a picture?
I tried for hours yesterday but to no avail.
Perhaps today will be more productive. I just can't get it quite right...Grrr!
