ONE WEEK ONLY #2

[summerfield]

That Rainbow Month was quite a challenge for me. Hopefully you all found your phojo's amongst all those colours. But if you hadn't been able to rein that phojo in, maybe you need a mini challenge. Also, as quite a few challenges are ending over the next day or two, a mini-challenge would be a good diversion. You want some direction but won't commit for the whole month?

A mini-challenge for one week only is what we all need!

The concept is simple: a prompt for each day of the week. Seven prompts, seven photographs. One week of bliss or one week of piss, depending on how you feel about the daily prompts. Interpret the prompts as you want. Do the whole week or just pick the days you feel like doing. If you're in hiatus at the moment, why not play along for the week. Some prompts are probably in your bucket list but you've been avoiding to do it - now is the time to try to do them.

Here are the prompts drawn in random order:

Monday - macro

Tuesday - HDR

Wednesday - Nature

Thursday - Refraction

Friday - Advertisement

Saturday - Negative space

Sunday - Tilt shift

NOTE: Check your camera if it has an HDR function; if not, any of the free programs has this function.

Just like the last time, you may interchange the prompts and days as you wish, or according to your schedule or mood. You may process your photos or post them SOOC, it's all your choice. And if they fit in with other challenges, that's even more fun!

Savvy? Then let's start tomorrow, Monday, April 2. We will tag our photos owo-2. You may also click on this link to view all photos with this tag.

And while we're at it, let's give kudos to ourselves and give each other shoutouts if there is a particular photo or two you actually like (whether it's another photographer's or yours, why not?) and post them here.

[Annie D]

[Captured by CJ]

I love a little extra challenge! I'm in!

[CristinaL]

Thanks! I have to admit the Rainbow Challenge really was a challenge for me. I don’t know why that is. Hopefully, this one will get me out of a funk.

[Brigette]

Gonna try

[Adi]

@kali66 Thanks so much for including me, this should be fun. Nice and short

[Walks @ 7]

A very good set of challenges. I'm in.

[Sally Ings]

Works for me!

[Teresa Amaro]

I will definitely try to keep up with this one!

[Nadiya Bilovodenko]

@kali66 @summerfield thank you for the invitation. the idea is great. I will try to. not quite understand what that is HDR )))) I will look for )))

[JackieR]

Ok!! Will try to start today, but might shift it along a day

[A]

Yes! I'll try at least :)

[Domenico Dodaro]

Insofar there's no "winning" and "hosting the new challenge" involved, I will join one or two of the prompts! Thanks @kali66 for calling!

[ChristineL]

@summerfield great idea, just what I need :)

[Saxa van Eijnsbergen]

Yeah! I haven't got much time this week but will try, love this challenge.

[Domenico Dodaro]

And thanks also to you, Vikki! Don't know why I got notification from Kali's account and not from yours!

[Hazel]

Thank you for including me. I'm in!!

[Joan Robillard]

No thanks - not good at scheduling photos

[Hazel]

@domenicododaro

I feel the same way about winning and hosting.

[Hazel]

@olenadole

I also have to do some research for a couple of the days!

[FBailey]

Thanks for the invite, I'm in:) @summerfield

[Urbana Identity Marketing]

Thank you for including me. I'm in...

[JackieR]

@phil_sandford might give a focus to your Sainsbury's shop this week??!

@carole_sandford be interesting to compare a week of photos with you. Your camera must have all the buttons to do these.

Go on you two, join in!!! Jak 🌨️

[Alfred Rico]

I'm in but will have to miss Monday unfortunatelly...

[Suzanne]

I may have started backwards, but I'm in for most of it :)

[Stephanie]

Thanks Kali, I was pondering on what to do this week! @kali66

[Jane Armstrong]

The rainbow challenge was certainly that. I still have a few days to finish. I haven't been around for a little while. Life and my daughter's 18th taking up my time. Oh and did I mention the great British weather? Will try to get back in the phoflow

[kali]

@alfredrico its still monday somewhere :)

[Henri Russell]

Thanks @Summerfield I'll try to join in on this.

[Mona]

@kali66 @Summerfield Thank you both for the kind invitation. After flash-of-red February and the Rainbow month, I think I need to roam free, for a while. But I keep this great prompts in the back of my head, and drop in and out eventually.

[HelenM]

I didn't get on terribly well with the Rainbow challenge this year - struggled to find inspiration in the required colour on the given day. So I think I'll give this new challenge a go. Thanks for including me.

[Carole Sandford]

@30pics4jackiesdiamond We'll give it a go, at least now we've found both our cameras do HDR :-)

[JackieR]

@olenadole I took a couple today using HDR button, didn't look much difference to auto to me!!!

[Phil Sandford]

@30pics4jackiesdiamond Google why and when you'd use it and then hope we get the weather that makes it worthwhile :-)

[Ontiveros]

@kali66 Thank you for including me! I like it when there is a challenge.

[Helen Jane]

Thank you for the invitation. It would be churlish to refuse.

[Lucie]

Thank you @kali66 for including me :)
I will try at least a few days :D

[Sylvia Binch]

I will give it a go .. uninvited .. ;o)

[kali]

@bintal everyone is invited :)

[Sylvia Binch]

@kali66 thank you .. looking forward to it.

[kali]

@bintal perhaps there are people on your friends list you could invite? thats what i did

[Sylvia Binch]

@kali66 Yes, I will have a look. I've already put a link up to this challenge.

[Kathy]

Keep me in mind for the next challenge. Have some extra needlework on my plate this month.

[Marcelo Romero]

Already planned my photos for this week, but for the next challenge I am in...

Tks for the invite ;)

[Kara]

@kali66 Thanks for tagging me!! Looks fun!

[Annie D]

a play with HDR processing

[Annie D]

loved this macro of April's @aecasey

[Gerasimos Georg.]

That reminds me SOO much of the one night stand challenge!!
count me in!

@kali66 thanks for tagging me

[Teresa Amaro]

@kali66 @summerfield For the Advertising prompt, will a photo of an advertisement suffice or are we creating an ad?

[summerfield]

@teresamaro - it's almost the same as the album cover challenge. you take an object or anything and make it into an advertisement poster. that's my interpretation of the prompt. or perhaps emulate any advertisement you've seen and liked from a magazine.

[Teresa Amaro]

@summerfield got it!

[summerfield]

@bintal - you know you're always welcome. 😊 will take note to include and tag you for next time. enjoy!

[summerfield]

@annied - i agree with you. that's an awesome abstract macro. @aecasey

[Sylvia Binch]

@summerfield Thanks, much appreciated !

[Helen Jane]

I was rather taken with Suzanne's negative space

[summerfield]

kali's @kali66 HDR'd shot transported me to a time when i would only see this type of photos in the old libraries or galleries

[JackieR]

@joysabin 's prisms, clever!!!

[Lula Harp]

@kali66 I just saw this. I’m so sorry I missed this week, but I’m back and playing catch-up. Thanks for including me!

[belinda]

@summerfield Thanks for running this challenge, it has been fun and good to look into different techniques.

[Helen Jane]

Well thank you Vikki for a great week of challenges. Despite a lack of time, I have really enjoyed the daily prompt. I think my favourite outcome was the advertisement - which really got me doing something different to the norm...
