The original suggestion was in a list of 4 or 5, a while ago. No challenge description was suggested.

People should just make of it what they will. As far as I'M concerned, a shot of someone recycling would be a "green portrait", for example. So would a frog, or a Parakeet. Green body paint? Sure! A portrait done in a green environment? Absolutely. And so forth and so on.

In general, I do wish folks would worry less about what the challenge proposer expected to see and more about what they can do to creatively interpret the challenge :-) (This remark is NOT directed at you, Barry, it's just an observation about this sort of thread.)


i was interested to read that the proposer of the challenge had some say in the challenge description .. i thought that someone would make a suggestion on the subject of a challenge and then it was out of their hands .. ?? ..
also i have read and read about the definition of a portrait .. and even tho it says in numerous places that it is a representation of a person .. it is not about just humans .. look at the winner of the last challenge .. a pet portrait .. there are portraits out there of every form of life .. maybe not amoebas .. lol ..
anyway .. i hope ppl are open minded and see all our entries as relevant even if not a person .. :)

There are photos out there of protozoa, bacteria, "almost-life" (viruses), and they've even gotten to the point of capturing (fuzzy) pictures of individual atoms.
