Get Pushed Week 117 - Monday Oct 20 to Sunday Oct 26

October 18th, 2014
the usual PSA

As a reminder - if you're paired up with some who is mia, pls let me know asap. Even if you don't mind sitting the week out. Anyone who is mia gets taken off the list until they reappear and ask to be added back on. This helps limit the number of folks who end up disappointed the following week. tx!

*******************************************************************************************
Week 117 Dates

-- Saturday / Sunday, October 18 and 19 - find your partner and issue a challenge
-- Monday October 20 thru Sunday October 26 - take a picture (or pictures) in response to the challenge issued to you, and post it with the tag: Get-Pushed-117, and comment on the photos taken in response to your challenge
-- Monday, October 27 - the winner of week 116 will pick 5 finalists for a vote

*************************************************************************
How to play:

TO ISSUE A CHALLENGE

1. Find your partner from the list below and click on their name to get to their profile

2. Browse through the last couple of months of photos to get a feel for what they shoot and don't shoot etc.

3. Post an introduction on their last photo, and also issue the challenge you are setting.


RESPOND TO A CHALLENGE

4. You have until midnight next Sunday, to take and post your shot or shots.

5. When posting your shot WRITE A SHORT DESCRIPTION about
-- who challenged you,
-- what the challenge was,
-- what you found hard about it etc.
You really should do this because if nothing else, it helps the previous week's winner when they have to choose this week's finalists... besides, if someone is cruising the photos with a "get pushed" tag, they like to see what the challenge was when looking at your photo :)

6. Make sure to tag your shot for the challenge.... Get-Pushed-117

7. Tag your challenger in a COMMENT (not just your write-up). You MUST tag your partner in a separate comment... tagging them in your write-up of your photo is not sufficient as it will not result in them getting a notification...


ALSO

8. it is nice to visit the photo that was made in response to your challenge and offer some comments and maybe even some constructive criticism...

9. On the Monday after the challenge is over, the winner of the previous week will pick 5 finalists for a vote, this can be based purely on their fav photos, who they felt best met the challenge etc, etc.

Happy trails!!!!

@northy I can't seem to get onto the page of my partner for this week. Is the name right?
October 18th, 2014
@lynnilou hmmmm... She's been on the list for a while and no one said anything before... I'll do some checking when I get home later tonight...
October 18th, 2014
@northy Thanks so much - you do such a good job at this get-pushed challenge!
October 19th, 2014
@lynnilou hi Lyn... i'm not sure when @ellisa disappeared... as far as i am aware, her previous partners never indicated that she had quit the project... if you hang tight a day or so it's quite likely someone else will come along looking for a partner...
October 19th, 2014
@northy Thanks so much! No problem if there isn't one for this week.
October 21st, 2014
@northy My partner hasn't been on in a few days.
October 21st, 2014
@lynnilou we can partner together if you like, although not sure if I should give my partner another day? @northy
October 21st, 2014
@zosimasy @la_photographic tends to be a bit uneven in her posting to the site... you really should give her another day...

@zosimasy Charles - I only just realised you are my Get Pushed Partner as you never mentioned in the photos you commented on or gave me a challenge which is why when I wrote on your photos yesterday I did not issue a challenge. I have issued you one now.

@northy Unfortunately I was waiting on my partner to challenge me as I could not get into Charles's page from here and it was only when he said that I hadn't been on for a few days - even though I thanked him for his comments and commented on his photos yesterday. I did not realise he was my Get Pushed Partner as he never said in the photos he commented on. I have now issued him a challenge.

@northy I won the challenge week 115 - I've chosen my fav five images - how do I post them?
October 21st, 2014
@northy It seems that my partner @originalintentionstudios has gone MIA since 8th October. I've tried to contact her twice with no response.
I am quite busy with various photography projects myself so no need to fix me up with another this week unless there is someone really desperate! I will look forward to someone active next week unless I hear from you...

Hi Norhy-I didn't get a response from my partner this week I think she may be busy with choosing finalists. Just keep me in for the following weeks
