Do you ever struggle with photo ideas for each day? If so, this is the challenge for you. Each day has a word assigned to it for you to use your imagination in capturing. Please feel free to join us, if you haven’t already. You can make it a challenge to get through the whole month, or come and go as you please.
Thank you to all who suggested words for 2014’s Ogle-4-October.
Please note that the dates are just recommendations and you do not have to stick to them, you can use any of the 38 words in any order you like, if you wish to.
The tag for October will continue in the same format as before, First three letters or the month, the year and then ‘words’.
* So tag your photos with oct14words to see them all here: oct14words .
This is how I have compiled our list:

- I then counted up the number of times that the words were nominated.
- Words without a date association were added randomly throughout the month.

@justaspark Sorry, I've never been to an Oktoberfest, and don't plan on starting now. It just happened to be the only word chosen for that day. I do have something in mind, that might work, however.
But ew Oktoberfest, the worst celebration in the world :D
