here are some examples of suggestions being set aside so that FocusPoint can have his every whim turned immediately into a challenge:

Film Noir
Masters of Photography
Edward Weston Black and White Abstract
and now for something completely different
Fake Movie Still Challenge
Impossible
Nothing
Defenestration
Green filtered b/w male portrait
Edward Hopper
Recreate a Painting
Tim Burton
Edgar Allen Poe
entering and leaving the frame
signature style/in the style of (of a DPC photographer)
Tarantino
Semi-abstract (as poetically described by Yo_Spiff)
Abstract Motion
Weekly World News
any of my Counterphobic Challenges
any of my Freudian Challenges

... and then there's the zeuszen challenge, even FocusPoint is being ignored for FocusPoint.

Somebody had to say it. :/
03/21/2011 11:44:36 PM · #3
My top 4 would be

Tim Burton
Edgar Allen Poe
Film Noir
Quentin Tarantino

I consider 4 to be an odd number so deal with it ;P

I would especially like (keeping to Sirashely's odd four):

Film Noir
Edward Weston Black and White Abstract
Semi-abstract
Green filtered b/w male portrait

me me me

It's a very fine list, thanks Don.

Nothing is an outstanding theme. Painfully difficult to make interesting if it's even possible.

I don't get it. Me stupid.

Nothing is, in fact, a brilliant bit of a connundrum.
03/22/2011 12:27:30 AM · #10
some others:

sorry

I don't get it

it's a conspiracy

I'll echo Louis' four just because I'd like him to enter a challenge. :)

Pathetic
Platitudes
Overestimation

For the humour I'd LOVE a defenestration challenge! and film noir.

in fact... all excellent suggestions (any chance of a link to yo spiff's description?)

Are you guys kidding!

I rather have the same challenges (or variation of) reissued over and over again so we kill any type of challenge and creativity involved. :)

You guys are CRAZY!!

Thank you for posting this thread. Would love to see many of these.
03/22/2011 07:15:57 AM · #16
a Thursday challenge for a few weeks with these would be very nice!

I had to search for it myself, since I had made that challenge suggestion several years ago. My suggestion got no attention at the time I posted it. It appears that Don dug pretty deep for this list. Semi-abstract challenge suggestion

How sweet is this?!

Love the suggestions - oh yeah.

Defenestration - brilliant.
Entering and leaving the frame - one of my favorites.
Edgar Allen Poe - I've done a few of those and would love to see a whole challenge (with what - 25 entries)
Tarantino - so much fun!

And I'd like to throw in there - Edward Gorey; either his body of work in general, but preferably the Gashlycrumb Tinies.
03/22/2011 10:23:06 AM · #19
don't forget the fine arts challenge! I thought we'd see that by now.
03/22/2011 02:55:29 PM · #20
My money is on "Balls".

03/22/2011 03:22:32 PM · #21
all good. Not for the faint of the heart!
