TAG CHALLENGE #56 - (w/alternate tag words option)

October 8th, 2012
Thank you SO MUCH to everyone who supported my entry & to those who participated in number 55. Also thank you Jamie for hosting the last challenge! I am honored to host the Tag Challenge 56.

We would like to see more entries, it is hard to keep up with all the challenges on here, the tag is a fun and terrific way to get creative & find a bit of inspiration for your next shot if you are stuck for ideas.

It is easy to play, so tag! tag! tag!

****There is a HOST ALTERNATATE TAG WORDS Option BELOW ****

TAG CHALLENGE 54

Start of challenge: Monday, 8th October, 12:00pm CST
End of challenge: Friday, 12th Ocotober , 11:59pm CST
Voting starts: Saturday, 13th October
Voting ends: Sunday, 14th October, 11:59pm CST

How it works:

Go to the "Browse" section and then select the "By Tag" link. Close your eyes and randomly click on a tag. Do it again (and no peeking)! These two tags will become your photo assignment. You will then use your two randomly chosen tags as an inspiration to create one picture that encompasses both tags. Please CLEARLY state your two tags when you post your entries, as this will let me know what your assignment was. You may submit more than one entry.

**** Challenge 56 ALTERNATE TAG OPTION ****
For this challenge, if you chose a set of words that you feel it would be impossible to do anything with, rather than skip the challenge all together, you may opt for the host’s tag words of “Glass” and “Tree” (selected randomly as above).

The number of finalists will be chosen depending on number of entries The winner will host the next week's challenge!

Please remember to tag all entries as " tag-challenge56 ” so that I can find them.

Please share them in this thread (optional) so everyone else can enjoy them too.

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

I noticed that you have participated in the tag challenge discussions recently so I thought I would tag you. I hope I didn't tag anyone twice.
I hope you take part of this weeks challenge. The amount of people who participate has been shrinking - lets get a record number of entries this time. Thank you! And if you pick horrible tags and plan to skip, just see the little twist this time - go with the hosts tags as an alternative.

Thanks for the shout out Kathy.

Tags I just got - outside & blue.

That might actually prove to be a challenge considering all the rainy, grey days we have been having.
October 8th, 2012
I got "green" and "park". Will try that one on thursday, to fit the october rainbow-challenge as well :)
October 8th, 2012
Okay...this I'll give it a go this time. I got "mirror" and "feet."
October 8th, 2012
@cmc1200 That is a GOOD ONE`

I got green and moon!
October 8th, 2012
I got 'me' and 'glass'. hmm,Ok probably time for another selfie, she said nervously.
October 8th, 2012
@tulipgirl You can do it!! Don't be nervous - you are among friends.

@scrappy Green & Moon - Oh sounds like some creativity is in order for that combo!! How fun to see what you do.

@cmc1200 Mirror & feet - very interesting combination - can't wait to see what you do with that

@ragnhildmorland So glad to hear it can fit in with that challenge too! Can't wait to see what you come up with.

@nadaa Oh that weather just doesn't like to cooperate sometimes. A blue umbrella? Photo something outside that is blue while in the house? Can't wait to see what happens - just don't get your camera wet from the rain.

October 8th, 2012
@myhrhelper Thanks! I was thinking I might try to catch the moon thru something green, like a palm tree? Wish me luck!
October 8th, 2012
@nadaa Also for this weeks challenge we do have the host tag words alternative option of Glass & Tree. Of course those trees are outside in the rain too.

Meg
Thank you for the shout out. I have been crazy busy with my kids sports lately. I will definitely try to participate in this weeks challenge. I do miss doing them. They are a lot of fun!
October 9th, 2012
Meg
I got fall and eye photos... This should be interesting. I already have some ideas!

People & Door

Silhouette & Water.
October 9th, 2012
@michelle58 Sounds like your doing this during a busy time - at least your tags sound like they could be fun and not the most difficult to find. Can't wait to see your interpretation of the tags

@megstorey Meg another interesting combination - can't wait to see your interpretation of fall & eye -

@wenbow Wendy this could really be a fun tag combination - I can't wait to see what you do with them!!

@la_photographic Hmmm, this is a put your thinking cap on type tag combo - but it really could be a very beautiful or creative combo. Can't wait to see what you do with this!

October 9th, 2012
@myhrhelper It is actually not too bad as I am not far from a river with buildings and structures surrounding them. Also when days are shorter now then I don't have as long to wait for evening.
October 10th, 2012
For blue and outside....

October 10th, 2012
Light & macro
October 11th, 2012
Another one for blue and outside...

October 11th, 2012
Oh, dear..."FUN" and "SUNRISE"...how do those two words go together? lol...guess that's why it's called a challenge :)

Update...found somethin'!! Hope you like!

October 11th, 2012
@raineyday Oh yeah that would fall under the challenge category. For this week's Tag challenge you do have the option of going with the host words of "glass" and "tree". Can't wait to see what you come up with.
October 12th, 2012
Meg
My tags were fall and eyes... this is what I came up with! =D
October 12th, 2012
Jo
My tags were colour and glass.
October 12th, 2012
@nadaa I think both shots for this challenge turned out fantastic! Which do you personally like best?

@michelle58 Gorgeous macro with the light shinning through

@megstorey This really turned out so beautiful and your response to the tags were perfect.

@joeymc This is so cool - it's almost abstrctish - love the colors, pattern.
October 12th, 2012
Blue and outside turned much easier with a few sunny days....

October 12th, 2012
@myhrhelper Out of my three, I like the lights the best. I love the sculptural quality of the lights and blue of the sky. :)
October 12th, 2012
@nadaa Wow!!! I have to totally agree!

@raineyday Love the humor, such a great response to what seemed to be a very difficult tag words combination - well done
October 13th, 2012
Thanks, Kathy!
