    Grab any one of those and then maybe give it a little twist. I can think of many fun combinations (humorist snapshot).

    Also, one thing done on another board that I thought was quite successful is that the "winner" chooses the next topic. Also, the current "winner" chooses the next "winner"... and so forth. This seemed to help people become more engaged.

    Lots of good suggetions there OS. One thing I think I should point out though, is that there are no "winners". This is not a competition. We do this not to compete, but to share. This is a community gathering, not a contest.

    Of course there are no "winners"...

    Hence, I put the word in quotes. Sorry. It was not my intention of casting this as a competition.

    But, you have been choosing a photo at the end of the month, yes?

    Well, the way it worked on this other board is that the "chosen" would then chose the next topic. After the time is up, that "chosen" would chose the "chosen" image for his/her challenge. Repeat until too much fun. Just an idea...

    Another idea -- what if the cycle was sped up to a challenge cycle every two or three weeks.

    Hmmm.. I better press [send]
    Cheers,

    Re: Photo Project suggestions....

    Tim, I am also part of a group that has a weekly challenge. Someone gets picked as having the "best", and that person picks the next challenge. I think it makes things somewhat creative, but then again, you get stuff like snow, mountains, children, and a few others some of us don't see/have, etc.

    I do like the idea of interpretations of feelings, emotions, colors, and themes like pride, power, etc., as opposed to just sunsets.
