Step right up, folks, and try your luck! The greatest little challenge on 365! Hurry, hurry, hurry! Don’t be shy.
Here's how it works:
Go to the "Browse" section and then select the "By Tag" link. Close your eyes and randomly click on a tag. Do it again (and no peeking)! These two tags will become your photo assignment. You will then use your two randomly chosen tags as an inspiration to create one picture that encompasses both tags. Please CLEARLY state your two tags when you post your entries, as this will let me know what your assignment was. You may submit more than one entry.
For this challenge, if you chose a set of words that you feel it would be impossible to do anything with, rather than skip the challenge all together, you may opt for the host’s tag words of “Chocolate” and “Building” (selected randomly as above). Seriously, I didn’t cheat -- lit on chocolate randomly. Chocolate + Building…hmmm. You may want to stick with whatever fate gives you, though.
Start of challenge: Monday, June 10th, 2013, 00:00 US Central Daylight Time (CDT)
End of challenge: Monday, June 17th, 2013, 23:59 CDT
Voting starts: Tuesday, June 18th, 2013, 00:00 CDT
Voting ends: Thursday, June 20th, 2013 23:59 CDT
NOTE - Photos must have been taken within the challenge time frame to be considered for a vote.
The number of finalists will be chosen depending on number of entries the winner will host challenge #77.
Please remember to tag all entries as tag-challenge-76 so that I can find them – (heck, so that anyone who’s curious can find them. The more people looking, the better! They might be inspired to join in.)
Share your photos in this thread (optional) so everyone else can enjoy them too.
AND around and around she goes – and where she stops, nobody knows! Ladies and gentlemen, your enjoyment and satisfaction are 100% guaranteed.
@iluvabcz Dawn, you have my sympathy. The moving hand of fate dealt you a tricky one. Actually, I just did a search and found discussion results (rather than photo results). I quote from the opening post on one of the threads:
"The 365 Film Club - Film Lives was set up on Flickr about 12 months ago to provide a forum for those using film and posting in this format for 365 users. It has also provided a way for 365ers to connect and build contacts on Flickr. Many of us have enjoyed the cameraderie (sic) fostered on 365, and the sharing our skills and experiences.
Though the 365 Film Club is ostensibly for posting images taken with film, ie. analogue rather than digital, all are welcome to join, start discussion and find friends and contacts. There is no hierarchy of moderators and administrators in this group, but instead everyone is equal."
@benjamaphone :-) Bravo for your persistence in trying again and again until you had your tags. @la_photographic maybe you should get together with Ben and photograph children down at the pond in silhouette! How about that little "pond" separating your two locations.
@wenbow Wendy, I'm glad you're so practical. @iluvabcz Dawn, forget my instructive explanation of the 365 Film Club on Flickr. Just listen to Wendy. Film-lives -- sheesh!
@semjaja Your profile pic looks like you are truly wracking your brain. Lots of folks getting some version of Sun for one of their tags. Oh, that reminds me -- it's been hot and sunny here today. I'd better go down and water the poor little flowers outside my front door -- so they stay green (your other tag!) Looking forward to your green-sun picture.
@btorrey This is a really beautiful scene -- very well composed. I tried to read up on the explanation of the black card technique -- I get the gist of it, but it's a bit beyond my capabilities now -- not to mention the capabilities of my little Cybershot camera. Thanks for sharing it here. If you, indeed, shot this scene for that technique challenge and also this tag challenge, let us know what two words Lady Luck gave you to play with, and tag your photo "tag-challenge-76" so it's included among the results for a search on that tag.
@gwhit123 Ah, that's the fun, isn't it? (I say this, knowing full well I still haven't gotten my own "chocolate plus building" picture...wanna switch with me??? hahahahaha) Seriously, though...maybe you could ask one of your very photogenic children to pose for you outside, reading a book. Mother Nature has a couple of days here to cooperate and provide the clouds. Hmmmm...brainstorming your tags may have given me other ideas for mine!
Mike, I've never been much of a stickler for technicalities and strict interpretation etc. You did an absolutely bang-up job with your tags. I am so thrilled we got such a good number of people to try the challenge. Thanks for playing with us!

I even looked through the pictures posted under film-lives and I can't find a pattern to them.

I shall wrack my brain.
There's still time to join in here. Close your eyes and try your luck! You never know what two tags you'd get to play with.
tags sand and landscape
my tags were green and sun, got rain for the rest of the week so I really only had today to work with.
Here's my offering. Words were books and cloud
was feeling at a loss for inspiration so grateful for a new challenge :o)
