Tag Challenge

[Slater Mapp]

Looking for some new ideas. Try out this 48 hour challenge by going to the "Browse" section above, and then again to the" By Tags" page. Close your eyes and pick a tag. Do it again (no peeking) and now you have your assignment for the day. I got "Building" and "People." I will post my shot in a few hours. See you then and good luck.

Please post your tags with your picture so we know what your assignment was. I will pick five finalists and post for voting Saturday morning. (Only shots done in the next 48 hours will be judged. 11:00 A.M EST Thursday-11:00 A.M. EST Saturday)

If you do not want to post the pics on this thread, tag the pictures as "tag-challenge" so I can find them.

[Richard Tyson]

haha that's a funny/good idea. i just tried it and got 'painting' and 'outdoors'!

[Slater Mapp]

@rich57 Exactly. It should force us to do something we do not normally do, which can be very liberating and creative.

[Ross S.]

Good idea, "color" + "portrait" shouldn't be too hard for me

[Slater Mapp]

@Scrivna This could either be really hard or easy depending on what you get.

[Liz (fotomama)]

oh I got "summer" and "sunshine"...lol easy one:)

[Annie Charalambous]

Flower. Ha.

And new

[Paul Kelly]

Oh I cannot believe this one, I got 'purple' and (yes you've guessed it) 'rain'
Amazing!!

[Richard Tyson]

@tolpol haha that's a classic!

[Richard Tyson]

@smapp ok what is 1100 EST in UK time?

[Slater Mapp]

@indiannie_jones New, interesting.

[Richard Tyson]

@4stories not if you live in England!

[Slater Mapp]

@tolpol Hey, Prince made it a classic song. Now it is your turn.

[Slater Mapp]

@rich57 Whatever 16 minutes ago was in UK.

[melissa]

I got snow and heart.
Snow.....in June....in America. Hmmmmmmmm.

[Janna E.]

Cool challenge! I got "canon" and "color" and I already got an idea - wicked ;)!

[Slater Mapp]

@mej2011 Would snow cone count?

[Slater Mapp]

@jannaellen Excellent. Can not wait to see.

[Richard Tyson]

@smapp 1600 hours! Ok so we're 5 hours apart, I don't know why but I like to know these things

[melissa]

@smapp
Oh.......... I'm no good at these things, I'm too literal.

[Slater Mapp]

@mej2011 Don't give up. Have fun.

[Jenn]

I got 'pet' and 'duck'! Great idea Slater! Already got my shot today....looking forward to giving it a go tomorrow!

[Slater Mapp]

@shutterbugger Have a good time.

[Fritz]

I'm game. 'children' 'shoes' Not at all something I think about for the camera.

[Stacy ♥ DOF]

Hmmmmm...I got "green" and "iPhone"

[Slater Mapp]

@sdpace A visit to the Apple store in your future?

[Bugik]

I got city and dark.... dark city! Interesting but don't know if I can go out tonite for a photowalk. I'll try though.

Thanks, Slater. Brilliant idea!

[joey d.Muli]

haha-mine is "Fence" and "Candle"---i don't have any of these two in my house--and i can't go out cuz it's raining hard ----!!!:(Can you make it till 72 hrs.at least ??

[Stacy ♥ DOF]

@smapp well i have an iphone4 already....so it might be kinda easy. i'm going exploring at lunch :) cool idea!

[Jessica]

i got Lamp and Lake O.o i guess i'll give this a try! lol

[Bonnie]

I got morning and food. I guess I'll be taking a picture of breakfast tomorrow!

[Salma Tantawi]

Haha this is a great idea! Mine are "butterfly" and "night" hmmm, will have to think of something.

[SaintSinner]

Very clever idea... I'll do my best to finish this task.

[Slater Mapp]

@jodimuli Going to keep it at 48 hrs, I hope that is OK. I like the idea of having a tight deadline. Maybe you will be able to come up with something. Or just do it the next time.

[Slater Mapp]

@lilkitty90 @slmatntwi Like your combinations they are both so different.

[Slater Mapp]

@paulremulla What did you get?

[The Steve From 2010]

I got people+farm at first, but farmers are boring so I re-rolled. Ended up with rain+reflections - helpfully, it's just stopped raining after doing so most of the afternoon. Bah humbug.

Still, will try and get a shot over the next day or so...

[Slater Mapp]

@paulremulla @slmatntwi @mjmama @lilkitty90 @sdpace @jodimuli @bugik @fritzbuff @shutterbugger @mej2011 @rich57 @jannaellen @tolpol @indiannie_jones @4stories @Scrivna If you do not post the "Tag Challenge" pics on the thread make sure to tag it "tag-challenge" so I can find them all. Thanks.

[Slater Mapp]

@eyebrows Cool. I like the re-rolling idea.

[Judith]

I got "paper" and "love"!

Not sure whether I will get round to this challenge (it's a very tight deadline and I am amazingly busy at the moment) but who knows - an opportunity might present itself :)

[sally czerwik-hampshire]

family and vintage for me,will give it a go

[melissa]

I decided that snow was not going to work at all. I tried again and got eye and glasses. What are the odds? lol. I think I might try again because that just seems to easy and boring. @smapp

[Jessie Lee]

I got Black and White, and Selfie. It wouldn't be too hard, but I don't think i will be able to make the deadline. I already did my pic today and I have tomorrow's planned. Awesome idea though!

[Deborah DeJong]

What a fun challenge idea! I got "purple night"...could be a challenge.

[myla]

'macro' & 'eye'... been wanting to do that anyway. I like this.

[Salma Tantawi]

"Butterfly" and "Night" :)

[Trevor Baird]

I got purple/shadow and I love playing with shadows! and love the color purple hmmm now how to do this haha

[Slater Mapp]

My sample entry. Tags were "building" and "people."

[Slater Mapp]

@jodimuli I think nrxt time, we should announce the "tag challenge" and give them twenty four hours before the clock start ticking. Sort of like your 72 hour idea.

[Emily]

(The selection process is WAY more fun with a touch screen, I have to say.)

I got MACRO and HEART! Awesome!

[Slater Mapp]

@proudrhrshipper Funny. I have an Ipad and am sure that helped me think of the idea.

[kammy]

brilliant idea!! i got nature and flower.... not sure if i manage that one... ha

[Kate Klinck]

I love this idea!

[Slater Mapp]

@harley84 Hope you can participate.

[Slater Mapp]

@kammy Some people are re-choosing, or just go for it.

[kammy]

@smapp ok cool... so ive tried again... so hdr dog! which might be actually a challenge as im at work 24hrs a day for next 3 days and there is no dogs... but hey better than flowers which ill shoot anyway!

great idea for a challenge!!

[andy c]

Hmmm "colour" "shadow".... Hmmm....

[Leah]

ooooh, Holiday & Red...This should be fun!

[Maaikel]

Chocolate and heart for me, let;s see if I can do something!

[Slater Mapp]

@maaikel Good combination.

[Slater Mapp]

@andycoleborn Interesting. That is a good challenge.

[melissa]

I thought this challenge would be easy. I was wrong. The third time seemed to be the charm, after landing on heart, snow and then eye and glasses. I figured I would try one last time and landed on squirrel and sepia.

[Donna H]

bubbles and rocks - goal achieved:

[Alta D©]

this is fun! Got "Girls" and "Eggs" lol, let's see what i can come up with this. =))

[Slater Mapp]

@slmatntwi Love it. Fun shot.

[Slater Mapp]

@mej2011 Glad you persevered. Sepia squirrel, fantastic.

[Amy Ecenbarger]

Okay... I got egg and dog... hmmm...

[Beth Baird]

I got park and purple

[Slater Mapp]

@relicsong Nice. The purple gives it such a specific mood.

[melissa]

@smapp
Thanks! I feel like a cheater though. lol

[Paula]

Oooh fun! I got home and trees. I like! Kind of wish I got a wee bit more challenging tags, but I'll stick with what I got:)

[kerrinjane]

After rejecting Leaf + Garden (too bvious)... and Leaf + Morning (after the week I have had morning just aint going to happen) I have Leaf + Friends... interesting... have some ideas... kinda....

I love this idea btw!!

[Amy Moon]

Great idea! I'm in a funk and need to get out of it. This just might help.
I got daisy (one of my go-to subjects lol) and self-portrait which I hate doing....I'm going to need some luck for this one haha.

[mango_brutus]

I landed on Lamp. this pic was taken month of May. I just wanna share it ^_^

[Tina Mac]

Fun challenge! I got "heart" and "sleep":

[kegan]

I got spider and heart should be fun!! Except I do not like spiders!!!

[Mike Gifford]

Leaf and Nature.....hmmm...this shouldn't be too hard but we'll see what tomorrow brings.

[jenny tucker]

HHHHMMM - 'restaurant' and 'bloom' - - @slater thanks for a very cool idea!

[La.Sk]

Great idea! I got self-portrait (which is funny since I just gave up on the SP challenge lol) and door. I'm going to give this a go.

[Janna E.]

Here's one for "canon" and "color"

[Slater Mapp]

@myan_sonza Love the abstract quality and the richness of the image.

[Slater Mapp]

@tinatmmc What a great combination.

[Bonnie]

Morning & food - a bee collecting his food this morning

[myla]

Here's my 'macro' & 'eye'

[Slater Mapp]

@myla The sublety of the iris is very nice indeed.

[Slater Mapp]

The response to this challenge has been great. I can not wait to see some of these ideas come to life. Tag your pics with "tag-challenge" and I will start judging tomorrow 11:00 AM Eastern Standard Time. Remember they must have been shot within the time frame of the 48 hours.

[Liz (fotomama)]

i got summer and sunshine:)

[Renee]

I got landscape and clouds. Yay! This will be fun

[Ann H. LeFevre]

I landed on "Flowers" Looks like this might be a sunflower!

[Slater Mapp]

@4stories Love the close up.

[Slater Mapp]

@olivetreeann Really like seeing the sunflower before it blooms.

[jenny tucker]

"Restaurant" and "Bloom"

[Richard Tyson]

Painting/Outside

[Luka]

city and silhouette

[Ann H. LeFevre]

@smapp Thanks Slater- I didn't realize I was supposed to randomly choose 2 themes until after I posted it. Oh well- glad you liked it though. I never noticed how beautiful they are even before they bloom.

[Gina]

I landed on "home" and "hipstamatic"! fun because I've never done this style before, nor do I have an iPhone!

[Slater Mapp]

@bungalow_bean Great job for a first hipsta.

[Amy Evans]

I got eggs and books. :D hahaha Fun challenge @smapp !!!

[kegan]

MY WORDS WERE SPIDER AND HEART!!!!

[Veronica Ashfield]

We found ourselves with "Summer" and "Day". This, photo, taken back in '08 of our little princess seems, to us, to be the perfect fit.

[Fritz]

Children and Shoes. Yawn

[Mike Gifford]

Leaf and Nature -

[Mike Gifford]

Another Leaf and Nature -

[Paula x2 Brumbe]

I had black and glass and found two buildings with glass that happens to be black.

[Emy_M]

http://365project.org/emyemit/365/2011-06-24

[Kimberly Doerr]

I had game and critique. Interesting challenge.

[Yoella Offir]

I got "wall "and "orange." I hope the orange colour here counts

[Kathryn Marshall]

I landed on "black and white" and "water". Both are out of my comfort zone. This picture is of the bridge at Liberty Park, in Sedalia, Missouri.

[Crickle]

I got "heart" and "leaf"
So, here is a heart shaped leaf

[Zachary Wickliffe]

I got "kids" and "cute" - Happened to take this one while in Belize.

[Mary Thorpe]

i know its late but i wanted to try anyway.
my words were "purple" and "reflection"....would very much appreciate some feedback as this is something ive never done before.
