How about a challenge where we have to stretch or hold the camera away from our eyes to get the shot? So clearly the shot would have to depict a very unusual angle or perspective such as shooting down a hole, over a fence, or through a window. Stuff like that. It could be hard to prove for sure in some cases but it could be a lot of fun.

Alternatively, a shot where the camera is the length of your arm from teh subject? Equally hard to judge, I suppose.

I'd like this, as I already do this fairly frequently. Would probably be a lot of DQ disputes though, unless you have someone like Isaac along to take a Set-Up Shot for you when you take the picture, although you'd need simultaneous exposures to completely prove your case.
Or shoot yourself in a mirror...

Great idea Paul. This is my idea I am currently working on. Admittedly, there are some kinks to work out.

If the Elph has a timer you can set that and ask your four-legged tripod to sit still...
