I've been in a pretty deep rut lately and I really need some inspiration! I lovvvvve side challenges. I was going to suggest another 30-day-self portrait because I always feel like I learn sooo tremendously much during those... but... we JUST did one.
So I'm looking for ideas for another side challenge we could start. Any suggestions???
After the 30 Day Where Do You Live side challenge, I am sold on side challenges. I learned a LOT.
How about a 30 day Portrait Challenge - that could include self, pets, family, complete strangers, co-workers, friends, etc. Could also go hand in hand with Candid.
hmmmm so it sounds maybe like a "30 Day People Challenge" ... "people" could include you, family, friends, clients, strangers.... and be in portait or candid form?!
I thought of the commute to work or school - your drive to and from work/school everyday. Do you see things that you'd love to photograph, but just don't take the time or don't have your camera with you? I offer this because I thought about this several times on my way to work - from the scenery to the toll takers at my final exit...then I thought of the bakery where I stop to bring treats to staff members to the times were "my" parking spot was taken by a temp! It might appeal to a large crowd? ...just MHO

Yes, lets call it "Candid Lifestyle"..... Your everyday life, and the people you see around you, and all the things you love. It would be all about you, and whats around you.
The list is endless, and I think we see some great stuff with this one.....

I think this is a neat idea. However... it seems like that would a little too broad....?
Either Monday the 19th March, or if to soon then the following week the 26th March, which would give us some more time to get more people interested.....
So be it.... Shannon will you, or do you want me to start a new thread with "Candids" as the title, for a new "30 day challenge", with the starting date as the 26th March to capture more interest, to the DPC members, who havent't seen this thread.....
WAIT... i have another idea to add to the list... how about a 30 Day Water Challenge...
think about it! this could call for a lot of creativity. also... it could attract landscape photographers.. abstract & macro photographers... portraitist... etc
Make up your mind girl..... I like the water idea as well so it up to you now.....

wellllp! personally i feel more inspired by the water idea. I already have some ideas fluttering around in my head! plus, it gives me an excuse to do more self portraits like this one that i just uploaded :) hehhehe
but... of course i would like to know what other people are thinking. stick with candids? water? both? something totally different?
Well this is a recent water shot of mine that I was pleased with.....
