Every single week.

If you can use your creativity in a way that would make Shannon proud, maybe you have a shot at the blue he usually picks up... ;)

I was || this close to shooting a photo of a chessboard with a fruit and a vegetable on it for Acronyms, and titling it DNMC.

Great idea! Count me in. On my "Fruits" entry, I had a few commentors that said that it looked like a Scalvert entry... even from Shannon himself! :-) I got lucky with that one. He somehow is a creative genius week after week!

ROFL! Wait... so the special rules mean if I don't vote and comment on every entry, then I would be DQ'd from a challenge I can't even enter? Hmm... that's pretty harsh!

Thinking outside the box...

I could just go through after the challenge is over and DQ three people a day until everyone had a ribbon (briefly). ;-P

Sounds like great FUN! Just about everything I know of photography comes from personal experience & direct observation of great photographers. (I know that the myriad Ansel Adams books in my library put me "on par" with many photographers.)

Where do I sign up & post my photo?

Running the Risk of having this entry sound like "Hero Worship" (which it's not), I just want to reemphasize the fact that I recognize who the amazing photographer's are on this site, including Scalvert. Thanks for the things that I have already learned! I still expect to create photos on your level one day.

I didn't think about that but now I kinda like Larus' idea. :P


03/01/2007 03:38:30 PM · #20
it would be cool to have challenges inspired by our lead photographers on the site, such as scalvert, larus, librodo, kiwininess....
maybe a monthly thing. i mean we have challenges that relates to other great photographers like the street photography challenge, why not stick to what we have here :)
03/01/2007 05:26:20 PM · #21

I LOVE the idea! There are tribute challenges to Ansel Adams for example, so why not Scalvert?

Maybe you all can hold off until the fall when I actually get my digital camera...
03/01/2007 10:00:36 PM · #23
this could actually be pretty fun!!! a challenge where all pix are anonymous and only scalvert votes! LOL
