it's not too late to join in; in fact it's never too late for anything when it comes to our art. our goal is to enjoy and have fun and learn in the process.
@salza - you're welcome. i myself am missing a week - the fantasy week. but your chess selfie gave me an idea so i just might be able to catch up one of these days.
@summerfield I have about 6 or 7 weeks to catch up on! Fell of the radar in May when we went off to the bush for a week. Plus I really battle with the portrait weeks. Maybe I should just take a whole lot one day and just use them for the rest of the challenge 🙄
@salza - for sure! take your time. that's what i do now when i go around for photos, i'm always thinking of upcoming assignments for the weeks ahead. so some of my posts for the challenge have already been shot. well, at least until next week.
I just found this challenge and I love it. I completed my 365 a few years ago and have returned to daily participation recently. I enter a lot of theme challenges and have very rarely been a finalist. I have been on the popular page once in all the years. I have no idea why this bothers me but it does. So. I love the idea of this non competitive thread. Thank you for all the work that goes into this.
@omabluebird - yes! jump in, this week it's family portrait and from monday it's waterscape. it does make you think more than you normally do in coming up with a photo, composition, set up and all. but you know, this is my 6th year and i have won a few challenges, it is exciting i would admit, but it doesn't bother me when i don't win or when my entry is not chosen. neither when i'm not on popular page. art is subjective, what you think is something exceptional and spectacular may not be in the eyes of others. i took a few photography courses over the years but i learned or i retained very few of the lessons. here on 365, everybody, especially those who are tremendously knowledgeable of their craft, is willing to help or explain things that you don't understand. that's why i always say that everything i know about photography i learned it here. and i always recommend it to anyone who is interested in photography because this is the best place to learn. plus i made some really wonderful friends here and so i consider this my happy place.
and one more thing, there was a point last month when i won 4 challenges almost one after the other, and i tell you i couldn't keep up. it feels good when your peers recognize your work, but if you don't win or your photos are not chosen for a challenge, it doesn't mean your work is no good. if you feel good about your work, then that's all that matters.
so, you on? :-) come aboard the 52 weeks challenge wagon and get your creative juices make magic!
@summerfield Thank you. I do enjoy it for the fun and learning and mainly for seeing where other people live. I am frustrated with myself that I even think that way. I do like doing challenges. I also must admit that right now, I only use my LG G4 for photos and most of the editing. It works for me.
@summerfield Hi we're onto new weeks. I was going to post through Sept, but I don't know how to do the links to the entries, and I like how you did that!
Tweets ahoy!

Thanks for the reminder, I had completely forgotten about this. Now it is back in my awareness, maybe I can do something!
