No matter what you usually shoot or what you've shot recently, do take the time to run a bunch of your photos through taking a look at them in the negative. I just did and I was amazed!! Really excited by this challenge now.

Yes, I did much the same yesterday. You can't tell before doing it which ones will look appealing.

Just a reminder that this is a Minimal Editing challenge -- you can (must) invert the image but not make any other adjustments.

Good reminder always :)
I actually did remember. I had gone out with camera set to RAW and jpg so I put my jpgs in a folder and then ran through them with FastStone which allowed me to quickly try invert on many of them. Some of them were quite predictable - in the sense that I pretty well knew what the result was going to be before I clicked; others were very much a surprise. It was fun.

I shot something I thought would work for the challenge but minimal killed it. Guess I'll have to try again.

Think I'll bump this - in the hopes of stirring up quite a bit more interest. Seriously, if you've taken ANYTHING in jpg since July 28th, take a look at it inverted (in the negative). You may be surprised.

After you mentioned it before I had a look at some other photos I'd taken after the challenge was announced and I do have some contenders there. Just not the one I shot especially for the challenge.

I'm frightened if I enter I'll receive too many negative comments ;).....I crack me up.

I absolutely adored my last entry, but it was one of my lowest ever.

I still love it!

I gave your cute chickens a 6, Wendy.

At least you'll be in good company :)

Well, we are up to 53 entries. Respectable . . . but no record :(

Wow. Didn't realize it's been 7 years since this challenge was last run. Dang. I noticed that the last one had 170+ entries and for some reason mine has almost 600 views since (and it finished near the bottom with a 5.0 something).

I'm happy this one is being done again (and not because it's "Minimal") - I just find it interesting to see how some things looked when flipped.
