[fizzle]

Ooooh I like the idea of "things that look like other things" there could be some potentially very interesting entries there

 

[L2R]

we definitely need a self portrait round

 

[spork]

^That's coming up the week after next!

 

[QuestionEverything]

^Glad to see that, I was coming in here to suggest it (and check if it had already been done - I remember 'portrait' or something similar).

I am also seconding (thirding) the 'things that look like other things' round. I wish my browsing time wasn't so limited.

 

[L2R]

who-ray!

 

[eDDe9]

Sweets/candy round.

Suggested it ages ago, but didn't realise you need to do it in this thread

 

[harley89]

that makes me think of 'the human body' as a theme. might be interesting.

Im doing a course in photography and the theme for the course is human condition, could be quite a good one?
Obviously that could encapsulate ALOT of things under one title, but it could be fun.

Did you know The Human Body is coming up as a theme?

 

[mariacallas]

cigarettes and coffee
water

I must admit, I have not been too impressed by the recent themes, and I assume many others weren't, seeing how low the number of submissions have dropped

This is probably my bias, but I'm not too big a fan of very, very specific themes like "candy" (or "tits" above, thank you very much 8)). Not many have pictures of these things, and those who do tend to be quite similar.

Go abstract or go home!

 

[Jamshyd]

A few suggestions to be constructive:

- My Favourite Colour
- Ecstasy (and not just the drug)
- Feast/festival
- Politics
- Glory
- Desolation

...etc

 

[ocean]

I like Jamshyd's suggestions of 'My Favorite Color' and Desolation ........

 

[panic in paradise]

-indecisiveness
-a turning point
-life styles
-'real' magic
-stained glass
-twisted metal

i like shadows, and my favorite colors too.

 

[n3ophy7e]

Nowwww we're talkin'

 

[BA]

I think we're at the point now where we can use duplicate themes and nobody would mind.

 

[ocean]

I saw rain is going to be a repeat........That should be cool....I can't believe I don't have any rain pictures though!

I really like alot of the suggestions made.....
indecisiveness,'real' magic and a turning point would be really cool because it could be so many different things.....
