I would like to play too. Especially since it's 60 days (I can skip some days while on vacation).

I LOVE this idea - and I'd LOVE to complete it off before the 25th August as it will be my 40th birthday!

of course you can play.

In fact, I insist :-)


SMILE & Thank you!

this sounds fun. I would like to play.
Do we get our pics and share each day or all at once?
Also is it the Alphabet with a theme or just a free for all?

This sounds like fun as I just saw a photo theme just like this the other day.

Question - can you just show one letter a day and then make a collage the end?
 07/31/2007 08:50:01 AM · #55
You can show whatever photos whenever you make them.
They don't have to be in any order.

I'm thinking that someone will go out and find, for example, the letter "F", "S" and "N" all in one outing.
So, they would then display them all at once, or spread them out over three days.
And then, some days I would imagine that you wouldn't find any letters.
And for that reason, the challenge got extended to 60 days.

@bvlindalou....there is no "theme" for the alphabet, it literally is the alphabet....

Ms. Penrod is ready to shoot letters! Is it August already? ;)

Count me in - this sounds like fun. The scores on my entries in voting challenges have really got me down recently, so a boost in creativity without the issues of scoring will be a pleasant change...

Everyone ready...."Give me an A"

One suggestion I have, which you can obviously ignore if you want, is that when you edit your image, then make sure you crop every letter to the same ratio.
It will give the alphabet a much more uniform look.
Probably.

I was thinking the same thing a few minutes ago....reminded myself to either shoot all in portrait orientation or all in landscape to make editing them easier.

either that or a square crop?

the square crop looks like the easiest to do based on the three posters shown in the earlier post, but I think at least the height needs to be consistent throughout...

I think I'm in on this...or at least will give it a try!
 08/01/2007 10:25:45 AM · #70
I just had a very fruitful drive. I was able to get some entry possibilities for B, C, D, G, H, I, J, X and have leads/ ideas for most others. this is going to be fun...
 08/01/2007 10:56:16 AM · #71
the best part about this challenge is that if you find a better letter later on, then you can just substitute it for the older inferior one :-)

Don't forget, the seperate thread for posting your images to is just over here:

ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ
