@northy I tried to make a current list but didnt' get very many people to respond. I think you could just go to some of the people you are connected to and just say PLEASE Host. Also since this is a Camera Settings challenge i am guessing there are a LOT of people out there who ONLY use auto and have never used the Aperture Priority, Shutter Speed, or anything. You could always post a challenge especially for those who want to learn manual but never used it before. What I'm suggesting is something back to the basics. But of course anything you or someone else chooses will be wonderful.
BTW - Congratulations on that awesome photo - your photography rocks!
@myhrhelper yeah... i've been wondering if getting back to basics would be a good idea... sorry i'm taking so long about getting someone to host the next go around... i've been swamped on so many levels :( i'll try and get the word out tonight or tomorrow night about hosting...
@northy I'm not telling you what to do but if we do something like that we could announce on a general discussion if there is anyone who needs the basics of the camera settings this challenge is for them.
@myhrhelper ok - i'm going to check around with a few folks, and if i can't twist any arms, i'll host a back to basics challenge on dof or basic shutter speed or something...
@mikegifford sounds good! one thing to bear in mind is that there are all sorts on the site who joined well after the first few challenges - so likely no harm in repeating something...
@mikegifford@northy Woo Hoo!! So glad you will do this Mike!! Yes as Northy said there are many people who didn't do the beginning challenges and there is no harm in repeating anything. There may be a lot of beginners who never used anything but auto mode OR you may have some cool ideas - if it involves learning how to use different camera settings regardless if it is advanced or for a beginner it is ALL GOOD!
@myhrhelper@northy Okay, how about "Shooting in dim light to enhance Halloween pictures"? Basically "High ISO Shooting"....comments? If okay, I'll get it started but most likely on Sunday the 13th. Let me know...
@myhrhelper@mikegifford i take it you mean sorta fast speed (or at least, not long exposure) in low light? to catch kids and jack-o-lanterns and such without a flash and with limited motion blur? this is something i really need to work on - sounds good to me... Kathy?
@northy@mikegifford Great, great idea. Dim lighting is something we all have times we need to shoot in dim lighting so I think that is a great challenge and I can use more practice too,
Tweets ahoy!

They are all listed here except for the last two that I need to add.
@northy Once I take a look at the previous challenges I'll see what's possible. Maybe a combination of two if needed.
