SO Photography Contest Discussion!!

^agreed

i'd also like to suggest "bluelighter" or "a bluelighter's handle".
 
how many times do i gotsta tell ya, get outsta mah friggen brains!


and take marla wit ya
 
I might try against you. See if I can re-create the girl in my photo... Now I wanna try!
 
My only minor beef about the Photo contest (because I think the rules are really well adhered to) is that a lot of entries really are out of left field when representing the theme. The recent theme "Passion" was one that comes to mind where even the winning entry really required an explaination on how it tied in.
 
I will go ahead and re-suggest the same theme I tried to suggest back when we didn't take abstract themes.

Ephemerality.

Look it up, bitches! <3

(I actually currently don't have a photo for that theme but would love to see others').

oooh I like that! I have lots of good ideas for that, hopefully I'll be able to capture them in photo.
 
I have a big list going here. I just had a brainstorm one day while outside work smoking a cigarette. Smoking time is a great time for brainstorms. :)

Mountains
Funny Faces
Rainbows
Size/Enormity/Vastness
Sculpture
Houses/Homes
Scary
Landmarks/Monuments
Flying Machines
Fantasy
Iconography
Parties/Bars (everyone has these kinds of pictures)
Popular Culture
Blurry/Out of focus (most people have accidentally produced really cool shots like this at night or other low-light scenarios)
Self-portrait/Timer shots
Planet Earth

I'm not sure if any of these have already been suggested or not. I saw that Americana is going to be one and I thought, "damn I wonder who suggested that; I was going to suggest that." Then I clicked on this thread and realized it was me. :) 8(
 
I was driving on a long distance trip for work and thought of a few more abstract photo comp themes:

Dilapidated
Time
Empty
Anachronism
Isolation
New beginnings

??

And, inspired by Shambles' noose photo, we should totally do a Ghost photos theme.

And now that we've had an Americana theme, we should do an Australiana theme too!!!
