Thanks to everyone that voted for my toilet paper picture in EOTB40. Thanks to Amanda Powell @froggie0628 for hosting the last challenge, and thanks to Hope D Jennings @mzzhope for mentioning to me that I actually won the challenge! I had forgot that I even entered it to be honest. It is humbling to be chosen by your peers, and I apologize for being late getting this going. I really had no idea... : (
In the words of the challenge's founder, Jeff Walker, this is how it works:
"Beauty is in the eye of the beholder"
For those of you that don't want to commit to a specific set of words for a month, are intimidated by the thought of being pushed by another 365'er, don't want to be constrained to a specific mundane object, aren't feeling the week's theme, feel you don't have the creativity, time or tools for album and wwyd challenges but still want to face down and conquer a challenge, I have just the challenge for YOU!
(Also, if you enjoy facing all the above challenges and can't get enough of challenges and want to add another challenge to your arsenal, this is for YOU as well!)
Here's the lowdown (and its fairly simple):
Your challenge is to find something most people would not consider to be beautiful, and find a way to capture it that IS beautiful, You can achieve it any way you desire. This challenge will help you with your composition and lighting skills. The way you compose the shot or the way you use light will usually be the way you bring out the beauty. It will also help you look at your surroundings differently. Everything is potentially a beautiful photograph. Its not a matter of finding something to photograph, its a matter of finding a way to photograph something that makes photographing it worthwhile.
**There is not specific item you have to photograph for this challenge. And the only rule is that the subject you photograph has to be something that, if people were watching you photograph it, would be wondering what has possessed you to photograph something so plain, bland, boring, ugly etc. Beauty is where you find it, and it is all around you. Train your eye to see things differently.**
Challenge time frame:
The challenge will begin MONDAY, October 6th. It will end on Friday, October 17th.
I will open the voting a couple of days after that around October 19th and let it run for 2-3 days until about the 21st. I should be able to announce the winner that night!
Multiple entries are accepted but remember all images must be taken and submitted within the specified time frame. Have a bunch of fun, get creative & try something new! I can't wait to see all the awesome entries!
