TAG CHALLENGE #57 - (w/alternate tag words option)

October 15th, 2012
Thank you SO MUCH to everyone who supported my entry & to those who participated in number 56. Also thank you Kathy for hosting the last challenge! I am honored to host the Tag Challenge 57.

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 57

Start of challenge: Monday, 15th October, 12:00pm CST
End of challenge: Friday, 19th Ocotober , 11:59pm CST
Voting starts: Saturday, 20th October
Voting ends: Sunday, 21st 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 57 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 “heart ” and “nature” (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-challenge57 ” 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.

Rainbow and Nikon...I own a Nikon, so that shouldn't be too difficult.
October 15th, 2012
Ok, I got Green and Sunset.... I can do that.
October 15th, 2012
@appaloosa05 lol ...hope the rainbow bit isn't too hard though ...good luck!!
October 15th, 2012
@michelle58 I may have to create one somehow :)
October 15th, 2012
@monika64 Tks Mon - looking forward to your shot::))
October 15th, 2012
I got cloud and love. That will be interesting.
October 15th, 2012
@la_photographic Very interesting - looking forward to seeing what you come up with!!

October 15th, 2012
@michelle58 Yay!!! I go ocean & colour, this should be easy =)
October 15th, 2012
@redpants good luck with that one - maybe a selfie::))
October 15th, 2012
@wenbow
@welcometocarolworld ....that would have been my reaction as well - you can use the the host words if you get stuck:)
@myhrhelper
@ragnhildmorland
@lanir :)

Meg
I ended up with green and shoes... I think I may use the host tags!
October 15th, 2012
happy and leaves :) i got this!
October 15th, 2012
bird and landscape! two of my favourite things! :)
October 15th, 2012
I got Tree and Brown...YAY it is Fall :)

Just a note, I always try to do my tags, but end up not having time to plan out a way to get to my subject (ie, river, lake, etc) my Mon thru Fri shots are usually just things that happen, or late night edits of another day's shoot...

I would find it easier to participate in this challenge if the dates spanned a weekend.

"rainbow" and "Nikon"

October 15th, 2012
Wow ...love the interpretation beautiful colours ...is that the Nikon in the background:)
October 15th, 2012
@hopess13 l agree on the weekend thing too ...l will recommend to the winner to perhaps change the dates to cover weekends ...also sometimes 5 days just isn't quite long enough - l just copied & pasted details, without changing the formula:)
October 15th, 2012
@megstorey lol ...if l went to my mother's wardrobe l wouldn't have a problem...she loves shoes and has lots:)
October 15th, 2012
@kylayingling
@sarajeal
Fun tags ...good luck !!!
October 16th, 2012
@michelle58 yes that's my Nikon in the background.I was hoping it would show up better in the mirror but alas it did not.
October 16th, 2012
flower & bokeh

That should be interesting.
October 16th, 2012
Meg
@michelle58 I need to borrow her closet!
I am a shoe lover as well, but I don't have any green shoes! A shopping trip may be in order!
October 16th, 2012
@megstorey lol ...she has a big problem with handbags too:) - maybe barefoot in the green grass with your shoes kicked off!!
October 16th, 2012
Meg
@michelle58 Ooh! That is a wonderful idea!
October 17th, 2012
Jo
Oh man, this is going to require some thinking. I got 'birthday' and 'shadow' - should be fun!
October 17th, 2012
@joeymc lol ...not the easiest mix...hope you have fun with it:)
October 17th, 2012
I was about to give up after clicking 20+ times and not managing to hit on a link. But finally ended up with "colour" and "landscape". Someone must have been looking out for me for my first try.
October 18th, 2012
"landscape" and "colour"

@michelle58 @appaloosa05 Thanks Michelle and Megan. I had already taken this shot when I picked the two tags. I'm thinking that my next picks will not be so easy.
October 19th, 2012

October 22nd, 2012
@welcometocarolworld thats a shame ...as you can see we need lots more to keep it going...maybe next weeks - l am going to suggest they do it over a week so a weekend is also included...thanks for having a go anyway:)
