Following on the idea originated by arnit --
A few famous photographers who have a definite style such as William Wegman, Ansel Adams & Philippe Halsman would be selected. We would choose to photograph in the style of one of those photographers and would enter a photo with our own title and the photographer's name in parenthesis -- e.g. Donna Hughes, architect (Halsman)

I dont think that would be very open as a lot of people, like me, have never heard of them, much less seen their photos.

But it is real easy to find their work with a simple search on the net. What's wrong with a little work on research?

Because if you have to research, then for every vote you cast you would have to look for a lot of photos to see if just one matched the style. You would also get people who wouldn't bother and just vote on how nice the photo is.

I don't think we should get too hung up on voting results -- I see dpchallenge as a place to (1) learn (2) have fun (3) practice with shots you normally wouldn't think of taking, etc.
In any case, links to good examples of the faamous photographers' photos could easily be be provided on the front page for everyone to learn from.
