we have heard them all - all the bashing on challenge topic definitions, the possibilities, the debates on the challenge description... aargh.
so what say you, we have a very restricted challenge topic, where there isn't much room to flex, and see what happens? (besides the rants in the forum) :p
I loved the rubber ducky challenge. It brought out so much creativity.
I would happily see another challenge every bit as inspired and restrictive as that one was.
then someone will photograph a naked girl with the title 'thinking about a blue pen on a white table' and get a blue ribbon
if it's a pretty girl I wouldn't mind that much :p
OK, seriously, it would be like the "rubber duckie" challenge that they had in the past. The rules were quite restricted but yet the photos were interesting - creativity showcase!
Or a blue pen on a white table with a naked girl lying on the table behind it...or....a pen with a naked girl on it lying on a white table.
Hey that brings back a horrid memory. Who remembers those pens that when you turned them upside down the bikini's dropped off the picture of the girl on the pen?

I never had one of those - can I have one?
Don't you remember them? Wow...there used to be many different types. I saw ones with men and women on them...they were so cool...and different ranges of naughtiness.
I remember them. Had a couple, just a bit vulgar in a way. But you could get a good laugh out of them when you slipped it into the purse of a female teacher in HS.

Well.. it could be looked at in a few ways...
Photograph a blue pen for 4 seconds - on a white table. Does the camera sit on a white table? Or the photographer?
