July 24th, 2018

4rky ace

I would like to thank @ludwigsdiana for hosting the last challenge. I am absolutely delighted to host the next one. This will be my first time hosting a challenge, so please bear with me if I veer off course at any point.

Many thanks to everyone who tagged an entry and everyone who took the time to vote. This is probably my favourite of all the challenges – through the links, I have discovered some never-heard before music and revisited some old favourites.

Here's the info.

The object of this challenge is to take a picture that represents a song title. This is an opportunity to get creative by taking a photo that is inspired by a song title or finding a song title that fits a photo you have taken. Anyone can enter, you can tag more than one entry and you can choose any song as long as it is not on the retired list.

Tag your entries – songtitle-41
Start date – Tuesday 24 July
Finish date - Sunday 5 August
All photos must have been taken and posted within this time frame.

If you can, please add a link to the song as well, so that we can give it a listen.
Please feel free to post your entry here, too – this will keep the challenge current on the discussion boards and hopefully inspire more people to enter!
