Just into the start of July I noticed a few of my 365 friends had started a challenge for the whole month. I thought it looked fantastic so as I'd already missed out on a few days I decided I couldn't join in at that point but I'd leave it until August. So here's my month of August with some adaptations I had to make.
Week 1...I couldn't start the rainbow colours as there would have been two days missing so I went with black, white and then, in honour of the Olympics, gold, silver and bronze.
Week 2...The colours of the rainbow. Red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo and violet.
Week 3...Numbers. As I knew what I was going to use for my 7 I decided to do a countdown.
Week 4...A continuous line. I really thought this was going to cause a lot of problems but with the help of a Chinese take away menu bent to the right place to give me an indication of where the previous line finished I was able to measure and line up pretty well.
Week 4...Black and white shapes. I decided to go with flower shapes.
I have to work today so won't have chance to check out your photos until tomorrow evening I'm afraid.
My 3 positive things today
1. Doctor Who is back tonight...so excited :o)
2. The weather looks as if it's improving...maybe we're heading for an Indian Summer!
3. I'm actually looking forward to getting back to studying tomorrow as I have stuff in my head that needs expelling (hopefully it won't be lost before I get the chance to write it down)
Thankyou for showing me this in your albums ladies. You all inspired me to give this a go. @filsie65@cdonohoue@nicolecampbell and thank you to @alia_801 for thinking of this challenge originally xx
Just seen this and tracking back through all your shots in awe. Think the whole month shot is just fantastic. I want to try it some day, when life gets a bit slower maybe!
Well done Lisa! This looks brilliant! Fav and I know how you had to dig a bit deep to complete the week of continuous lines, so a pat on the back to you!
that's worked so well as a thumbnail challenge - makes a great month's collection - really cool idea and shot (and sorry to be missing in action for a week, the laptop cable died and it took a while to source a new one)
Just logging in this morning and saw this on the home page; wow, wow and er wow! This is amazing, fabulous, stunning and just awesome. Love your continuous line, in fact just love it all:0)
phenomenal - totally inspiring (if only to try to do a couple of shots) I saw this idea a while ago but didn't expect the end result to be of such a high calibre - FAV
@claireuk Wow! Thanks for letting me know Claire. I never log out (forgotten my password so I'd never get back in again ;o)) so I never see the home page xx
@megsy The collage you mean? I never use photoshop, GIMP or any of those complicated editing programs. I used ribbet for this collage. It's free, easy and editing for idiots ;o) xx
It's all great but the things on a line are genius. I never do challenges because it's so hard at the best of times but I'm really inspired to try that - mind you you've already had the best ideas!
@judithg This was my first attempt and tbh with you I won't be doing another one for a long while! It was great to havesome idea of what I was going to shoot every day but towards the end of the month I was feeling really restricted even with my other albums to put extra shots into. The line week did concern me but wasn't actually too much effort in the end xx
Absolutely love this - another fave just popped on and saw it in Top Twenty. Loved lots of individual shots but great like thie especially the week of the continuous line!
Oh, and, DOCTOR WHO, AAAAHHHHH! It's been too long! xx
Thank you all so much. I am really blown away by the response and so many fav's. I will be getting back to looking at and commenting on your wonderful shots this evening but I have to spend the day putting my laptop to another use and continuing with my current assignment (and final one of this module...woohoo!!!) You guys are the best xx
Il migliore quello della linea :D
