Some of you expressed an interest...

in a mirror series challenge. I know Sheila is up for it! LOL! If you are interested, please tell me in comments. I am trying to get an idea of how many are interested to see whether or not it would be worth posting in discussions. If few, I will just use one of my posts for it. Hoping I can get three folks I have in mind to judge the works.
I would be interested in doing this.

I will definitely be following to see what all you amazing photographers come up with.
May 9th, 2012  
I'll be in it... Love the world inside mirrors :) great tree here, I used to have the same tree when I lived in Melbourne.
May 9th, 2012  
I would give it a try but have no idea what so if you want to give it a week or so that's okay with me. Will be thinking on it!!!
May 9th, 2012  
Great shot! I may give the mirror challenge a try!

Count me in Maggie - I need to stretch myself. You're a hard act to follow, though!!

@yonnie Are you sure you won't participate, Yvonne? LOL! Appreciate your comments!
May 10th, 2012  
@marlboromaam Maggie, it would be good for me, because I know it would be a great way for me to learn. Just not sure I'm ready yet. Let me know when you're starting.
May 10th, 2012  
um... how exactly would I do this?
May 10th, 2012  
as long as I'm ready I'll be in!!
May 10th, 2012  
@yonnie Will let you know!

@joeboxster Just like any other challenge, Joe! I'll post the requirements and you post the shots with the proper tags. Would love to see you do it!

@cindyrez Cool, Cindy!

I wish I could participate but I am soooo not a creative type....more of a technician, just so you know:)
May 10th, 2012  
@joeboxster It will involve a mirror for one. LOL!

@vskolnik I think you are more creative than you give yourself credit for, Vee. You have a very creative eye!
May 10th, 2012  
Vee
@marlboromaam Aw shucks...thanks...:) but the thing is, for me, is that photography is about capturing the beautiful vision that has appeared before me. And, the truth is that I fumble and stumble when trying to come up with something new and inventive.... but that's just me...You creative types really amaze me!
May 10th, 2012  
@vskolnik Okay, so turn around and shoot the same scene in the mirror! LOL! It's NOT hard!
May 10th, 2012  
Vee
@marlboromaam Touche' !!!! I guess I just have a block and need to get over it:)
May 10th, 2012  
@vskolnik LOL! Yeah, you do. =)
May 10th, 2012  
Beautiful capture and composition.
May 10th, 2012  
I'll try anything once, twice if i like it...... Haha! seriously i dont know how good it will be but im game =)
May 10th, 2012  
@sangwann Thank you, Dione!

Oh I love the lighting!! B&W works so well with this! Beautiful shot!! If I can find me a good mirror I will be up for the series!!
May 10th, 2012  
@pammerritt That is good news! Do find a mirror! I found mine at Wally World a few years back. It hung in my office until I was laid off. It will be fun, I think! Thank you for your comment about my pic, too!
May 10th, 2012  
This is a pretty view!
May 10th, 2012  
It scares me, not sure I am up for it, but willing to try. Got to find a mirror. Nice shot!
Do you have a job now?
May 10th, 2012  
@swguevin Thank you, Sheila!
May 10th, 2012  
@grannysue Nothing to be afraid of, Linda! Mine came from Wally World a while ago - was very inexpensive. It hung in my office until I was laid off and had to pack up and leave. No. No job yet. They don't seem to want hire the over 55. And I know, that's illegal but it doesn't take a rocket scientist to look at the year you graduated from college and guess your age.
May 10th, 2012  
I bought a mirror months ago just to take a photo series with and propped it against a wall in the guest room. I'm just waiting for a good excuse to put it to work!
May 10th, 2012  
@swguevin We'll put it to work, girl! Stay tuned! I want to post some ideas for the series and get feedback before I post it in discussions. =)
May 10th, 2012  
No time for me getting into anything else, Maggie other than my one photo a day, but will support those involved. This is such a beautiful b & w shot....so vintage! Love it!
May 11th, 2012  
@cimes1 I understand, Carole! Thank your for you kind comments, as always!
May 11th, 2012  
love that diagonal tree maggie :)
May 11th, 2012  
@phil_howcroft Thank you, Phil! =)
May 11th, 2012  
Pam
Let me know when it starts. I will have to get a mirror. I don't think I can drag the bathroom one outside lol. It sounds like a great idea and a good challenge:)
May 12th, 2012  
@pammerritt Starts tomorrow, Sunday, May 13. I gave you the link on another comment! Try Walmart. They are light weight and very inexpensive. That's where mine came from. Thank you! I look forward to seeing your pics! xo
May 12th, 2012  
@marlboromaam I'm there with you - the over 55 crowd. There are some companies that do seem to value the mature worker. What kind of work did you do?
May 14th, 2012  
@grannysue I was a graphic designer, Linda. Not too much need for that any longer unless you want a "web" graphic designer. I would be willing do to just about anything right now though.
May 14th, 2012  
@marlboromaam My company just filled two positions for Customer Service in Fort Worth, both ladies are not spring chickens, but I am not sure of their age. Younger than me. Where do you live, town / state? I can take a look at the openings and let you know.
May 14th, 2012  
@grannysue Eastover, South Carolina - real close to Columbia. Do they have an office here?
May 14th, 2012  
It is a big company with branches and subsidiaries all over the US, Canada and Mexico and just aquired some facilities in New Zealand. Headquarters is in Cleveland. I will look at the openings tomorrow.
May 14th, 2012  
@grannysue Okay! Thank you! You are very kind!
May 14th, 2012  
Only one job opening in SC and that is in Spartenburg. Account Manager (sales). It required hydraulic and pnuematic experience.
May 14th, 2012  
@grannysue That's okay, Linda. I really do appreciate that you cared enough to check into it for me! It was such a thoughtful and kind thing to do! God bless you, gal!
