***TAG Challenge #136 - Let's Play!***

January 2nd, 2017
Thank you for your kind votes, ladies and gentlemen. Also thank you, Carole G @yorkshirekiwi for hosting the last tag challenge. So now, let's play the first tag challenge round for 2017.

Here are the rules for Tag Challenge 136:

Step 1: Go to the "Browse" section and select the "By Tag" link. Close your eyes and randomly click on a tag.

Step 2: Do it again - no peeking!

These two tags are now your photo assignment. You will use your two randomly chosen tags as an inspiration to create one picture that encompasses both tags... or for an added challenge you can try three tags if you want to!

Please CLEARLY state your two (or three) tags when you post your entries as this will let me know what your tags were. You may submit more than one entry (using the same tags).

For this challenge if you choose a set of words that you feel would be impossible to do anything with, rather than skip the challenge, you may opt for the hostโ€™s tag words of "bridge" and "light" or for those of you doing the three-tag challenge, try "bridge", "light" and "forest" (selected randomly by me as above).

Start of challenge: Today, Sunday, January 1, 2017
End of challenge: midnight, NewYork/Toronto time Saturday, January 14, 2017 at midnight, New York/Toronto time
Voting starts: immediately after the end challenge date
Winner announced: soon after

Tag your entries tag-challenge-136

NOTE - Photos must be taken within the challenge time frame to be considered for a vote.

The number of finalists will be chosen depending on number of entries.

Tag away, folks!

Ok so I got bird and reflection. I should manage this if the sun ever comes back this year.

I got weather and film-lives. Any one tell me what a film-life is?
January 2nd, 2017
@yorkshirekiwi - it's a tag or slogan used by the hard-core photographers who still use films as opposed to digital. i think, more or less. :-)

@summerfield Thanks! You learn something new every day.
January 2nd, 2017
I am in! I got rain and door. This is going to be hard during this winter snow weather. I need to be more creative.

thank you, ladies. looking forward to your shots!

Great way to start the year, I got outside and mirror.

I have fallen off the 'challenge wagon' over the last 6 months so here I am again trying to get back into the 'saddle' as it were....
I got church and path.

@joysabin @alinz - great tags you got, ladies. looking forward to your photos. thank you.
January 2nd, 2017
This is my first time participating (both in this challenge and in the 365 project in general)! I ended up getting 'rainbow' and 'hummingbird'. Not sure if I'll be able to complete this but I'm going to try my best!
January 2nd, 2017
For my first TAG challenge I pull "mountains" and "kids". This is going to be all too easy for me!

architecture & ocean

I let my hubby chose for me and he chose B&W cat! Could be interesting as I don't do a lot of B&W or cat pics ๐Ÿ˜

@emmawrites @kdefields @wenbow @hubmom

thank you, kind folks, and i look forward to seeing your photos.

wendy, those tags are rather intriguing.

emma, kevin and jeannine, if your tags won't work together, you can always choose one, two or even all three tags that i have chosen which are "bridge", "light" and "forest".

@summerfield I like the challenge of going outside my comfort zone. Great way to learn new skills ๐Ÿ‘
January 2nd, 2017
this looks like fun but I don't know how to post it outside of the 365 challenge since it needs a different date each time and I don't want to through off that challenge
January 2nd, 2017
@inspiredbynature - sandra, if you only have one album, you can either post it in your album on the day, or if you have 2 postings, you can post it on a past date, say december 31, 2016, as long as the photo was tagged 'tag-challenge-136' and your Exif shows the photo was taken during the time frame for the challenge, it will be considered. i do check the Exif of the photos when i try to choose the finalists.

UPDATE: better yet, be an ace member and you get extra albums. only $19.99 U.S. per year. :-)

all the challenges here on 365 are fun! enjoy, and i look forward to what you will come up with for the challenge. thanks!

A first timer to this challenge - I got flower and drop
January 3rd, 2017
Morning and People. Since my crew are not morning people, I'll have to look elsewhere...
January 3rd, 2017
Hi first time having a go, got SOOC (had to look it up!), leaves then as straight out of camera didn't feel like something you can show I picked a third and got pond.
January 3rd, 2017
@deliad @dyanstevens @chezzy

thank you, ladies. i want to see those pics please!
January 3rd, 2017
I got tree and raindrops! This should be interesting since it is winter here - Amazingly, we are randomly supposed to have 100% chance of rain tomorrow - usually it is 0 degrees! Crazy:) Guess this shot was meant to be! This is my first challenge, as I'm new to this project!! Can't wait!
January 3rd, 2017
@lilacphotography - welcome to 365, kimberly. you came to the right place, you will learn and enjoy photography here. i look forward to seeing what you would come up with those two tags. thank you.
January 3rd, 2017

January 3rd, 2017

January 3rd, 2017
door + nature
will try to be creative but for some reason call of nature and a loo leapt into my head and I can't shake it out!
January 3rd, 2017
@30pics4jackiesdiamond - go do it! hahahahaha!
January 4th, 2017
Horse + Food

Hmmmmm - not sure how this will turn out! I'll try!
January 4th, 2017
@jsmjomo - lots of possibilities, jo. i could think of a dozen ways myself! thank you!
January 4th, 2017
I have not done many challenges since June so will try to start back this new year. I got nature, glass and outdoors which should be manageable - I will try to be original but we will see.
January 4th, 2017
I have a question I tagged my shot tag-challenge-136 but when I browse by tag I don't see any entries. Do I need to look somewhere else?
January 4th, 2017
@la_photographic - interesting tags, laura. anxious to see what you come up with.

@hubmom - no, just click on the tags and you'll be able to view the entries, jeannine, i am able to view the entries. there are 6 entries in there and i see your black and white cat photo. thank you.
January 4th, 2017
@summerfield thanks
January 4th, 2017
@summerfield Thanks.
January 4th, 2017
I'm in!! I got "mountains" and "shadows". Funnnn!
January 4th, 2017
@lysperlephtg - fun indeed, EM! thanks!
January 4th, 2017
Food and macro. That shouldn't be too difficult to pull off.
January 4th, 2017
@froggie0628 - easy peasy, ain't it? thanks Amanda.
January 5th, 2017
@summerfield Won't work together? Mountains and kids, are you kidding me? Not only am I a member of the Mountaineers but my kids are part of the Mountaineers Adventure Club which is one of our youth programs. We're taking them winter snow camping in the North Cascades this weekend. Those are the best two tags I could have possibly drawn!
January 5th, 2017
@kdefields - awesome!
January 15th, 2017
I'm sorry I missed this. It's 8:30 pm Saturday night and unless I get night and light, I don't think I'll be able to pull off a picture! Wish I'd seen your pictures with the tag earlier.
January 15th, 2017
@olivetreeann - c|:-) no worries, ann. with what there is, i am having a hard time choosing.
