i'm losing my fotomojo ..
a side challenge is calling ..
if you want to join in put your name down here ..
this will be the posting thread as well .. lets keep it simple ..
SUBJECT: ANYTHING GOES .. OVERLAYS ESPECIALLY WELCOME BUT NOT NECESSARY .. photograph subjects that appeal to you and that get your creative juices bubbling .. basic editing or go wild .. anything goes .. !!
i'll be sending out pm's to ppl who were in our nov/dec side but i'm hoping there'll be more ppl joining in .. the more the better ..
really looking forward to seeing the creativity .. hopefully some of it will rub off on me ..:) ..
:)
No voting, just sharing images. You are supposed to comment on the images of others and in turn, you will receive comments on your images. It is just for fun.
hey molly .. the side challenges are great places to grow in your photography .. there's no voting .. there is however a wonderful sense of being with other ppl who share the same love of photography as you . to differing degrees .. !! ..
we post a photo every day .. sometimes more and sometimes less .. whatever you can manage .. also the side challenges can be on any subject .. i've made this one open .. just what ppl want to do ..
when i started in dpc i found that posting a photograph every day in a side challenge was an excellent way to learn not only your camera but a whole heap of other associated stuff .. like processing for instance .. i cant recommend the side challenges enough as a place to grow .. another benefit is that you often connect with other ppl and form wonderful friendships ..
we are all very happy to help each other .. we only have to ask .. ppl will be falling over themselves to help and give tips on how to do different things ...
hope this covers it ..
if anyone want to add their take on how wonderful side challenges are then go ahead .. :)
lol .. i forgot one of the most important things but fortunately tracey Enlightened and margaret MNet mentioned it ... COMMENTS .. so vital to make a side challenge a great place .. the comments can motivate and inspire you as looking at other ppl's photographs can do as well .. if no-one made any comments i think the side challenge would die pretty quickly ..
Alright, I'm in. I assume we're critiquing and not just saying nice things?
ppl will usually ask for a critique .. its up to the individual .. but often a so-called critique is just a personal opinion anyway ...
but if you feel you have something positive to say that is an actual critique then thats a good thing too . nice comments go down a treat as well . !!
I remember my first side challenge here. I learned so much. People were so generous with comments & help. I practiced my commenting as well as improving my photography & PP skills. Thanks for posting this one Roz.

Alright, I can handle that. I'm more interested in getting critiques than giving. So, try to post a photo whenever possible and comment whenever possible. I think I got this!
Ok, put my name on the list too. I may post a couple along the way, but will not be able to spend much time with this until after the first of March. It's work and play season here in S W Florida right now. The harvest is going on, and it's also tourist season with festivals going on every weekend around the area as well.
I see a couple of new faces here, It will be good to see some new images from everyone.
