Well November usually marks a bit of a slow month in sports for me, as we wind down one set of sports and start up another. So I thought with a bit of extra time on my hands I might entertain another sports challenge. This will again be done in the manner of last months Macro challenge for the time challenged. Posting a minimum number of photos and also commenting a minimum number of times. If there is enough interest we will give it a go. So who wants in?
Rules are really simple
10 images minimum Post as many as you like, but there is a 3 for one rule. If you post 20 images, you need to make 60 comments, 30 images, 90 comments. Simple math. And remember sports doesnt have to mean stick and ball, skateboarding, snowboarding, extreme sports. It all applies.
One other thing, I'd prefer but its up to the poster/commenter. Make your comment at least partially a critique. Meaning You can tell them hey this is great, but if you can offer anything to help them improve(hopefully thats why everyone is doing it) we can all learn along the way.
Altho, I don't have $25 on hand, so mine will be on my Flickr. Is that ok??

I'm getting ready to up my one year membership. I'll buy a one month for you, IF you participate in the side challenge and comment on at least 50% of the images posted in the photos thread.(this may be a small number or a large number) Just let me know.

I didn't know they came in 1-month stints! and at such low prices too! I can certainly do $5, thanks for the offer tho! :)
Hmmm, would anyone be interested in making this a two month side challenge? just for kicks and giggles?
It could always be carried over, or started again in December. However I'm trying to do something different each month. And shooting sports is a year round venture for me anyway. So while I could post for both months, I'd also like to work on another area of my photography in December.
Hmm with all the PM and inquiries I have gotten over the past few months, I thought there would have been more interest in this. Oh well, I'll keep bumping until the end of the month.
I've discovered that girls' soccer is mostly boring but I got one or two spectacular shots (and several that would've been spectacular except I forgot where I was focussed/how long my lens was/white balance/etc.)
