30 Shots Challenge

March 30th, 2019
I have been wondering what to do in my fun with themes album for April. February was Flash of Red and March was the Rainbow challenge. Those who follow know that my main album is still in February – yes way behind – but I can’t jump ahead – I just keep plodding along.
A couple of times I did the 31 shots challenge - the idea of this challenge is to take a month’s worth of shots of the same thing. The first time I chose a flowering plant in my front garden - https://365project.org/annied/people-and-plac/2014-03-31 and the second time my flowering gum - https://365project.org/annied/the-ones-i-left/2017-03-31
Mel chose her kitchen sink - https://365project.org/m2016/2017/2017-03-30
Skip chose his pine tree - https://365project.org/skipt07/potpourri/2017-04-01
Dinah her bird feeder - https://365project.org/dsp2/album-1/2017-03-31
Kim her deck - https://365project.org/genealogygenie/extras-etc/2017-04-01

It was done in March last time and called 31 Shots - this time I am doing it in April so it will be 30 shots hahaha.
Please join if you think it would be a good inspiration for photo ideas. I haven't decided if I am going to do my pool or my clothes line - or something else that pops into my head in the next 24 hours.

This isn't a competition so if you want to edit, faff, play around a bit that is totally fine with me - as you know - I love faffing around and will be doing a bit myself hahaha


I am going to tag my images 30-shots2019

Oooooh I loved this challenge... it was lots of fun but definitely challenging! Tempted to join in if I can think of an interesting subject...
March 30th, 2019
I would like to give it a try please ! The rainbow-challenge gave me such a boost ; I’m going to miss it.
March 30th, 2019
It sounds brilliant - but I've only got one album and having completed Flash of Red and nearly completed Rainbow March (two days to go,hurrah) I really want a break from being so constrained.

@shannejw I know what you mean :)

March 30th, 2019
Super intrigued...
March 30th, 2019
Sounds like fun, if I can think of a good subject.
March 30th, 2019
Hmmmmmm
March 30th, 2019
Might break it into weeks, might follow it to the letter, we'll see!
March 30th, 2019
@olivetreeann my motto on 365 is have fun and do what works for you :)

@annied Remember we did our flowering gums together??!! Wow, it was a real challenge :)
March 30th, 2019
@gigiflower I do 😀 it was definitely a challenge
March 30th, 2019
I might give this a go... Think I have something in mind
March 31st, 2019
Keep me on the list - sounds like fun.

@annied However we did have a good laugh ;)
March 31st, 2019
@gigiflower that we did

My dogs (or at least one of them) springs to mind for the subject. Not sure whether peeps want to see 30 pics of the same dog :-)
March 31st, 2019
@salza they're gorgeous dogs :)
you could show us all the details and all their character

I can't believe I've been here so long and never seen this challenge before! It's an interesting idea.... I'm tempted to join in but also worried about being restricted to a certain thing for a whole month so I may bend the rules a bit and do 30 shots of something in the same category, for example, 30 shots of trees, but not the same tree each time...will see how the first week goes and take it from there I think!
March 31st, 2019
@roachling I'm all for whatever works for you 😊I will add the both times I chose a flowering plant in my garden...neither of them large...it was challenging but made me try different camera settings and lenses among other things - it was a great learning experience 😊
March 31st, 2019
@annied Ok upon further contemplation, definitely count me in... I'm going to try to come up with 30 shots of my guitar :)
March 31st, 2019
@m2016 oh yay!!! I am so looking forward to seeing your images 😊
March 31st, 2019
@annied I’m tempted to join you. At least I’ll give it a try with my dining table chairs (they are 4 and all the same).
March 31st, 2019
Sounds good to me, count me in. Thank you.
March 31st, 2019
Am very tempted - nearly sold my beloved car today but couldn't bring myself to part from her.
April 1st, 2019
Wanna try this one too. Haven't done this for awhile
April 1st, 2019
@moonbi @fbailey @fearinnocent look forward to seeing your images :)
April 1st, 2019
Am tempted. Thanks.

I've decided to use my garden shed. I'm hoping some birds and animals will pose on its roof for me :)
April 1st, 2019
Think I will do the ancient apple tree in my back yard. I can record the receding snow (hopefully) and new growth as it begins under it.
April 2nd, 2019
What a fun idea! I’m in! Just got to figure out what to shoot.
April 2nd, 2019
I'll give it a go myself...I like Wendy's idea of receding snow...that is starting to happen here in the Arctic. Count me in!
April 3rd, 2019
I'm kind of keen on clouds atm so maybe I will have a go at April atmospheres?? They won't be the same cloud but I am guessing I can find clouds in the skies most days now we are heading into Autumn. Lets see what eventuates.
April 3rd, 2019
@kiwinanna that sounds like a great idea 😊
April 3rd, 2019
@jetr I'm looking forward to snow images 😊
April 3rd, 2019
@emrob that decision can be a hard one 😊
April 3rd, 2019
I'm going to have a go at this as well. Seems like a fun way to get my photo mojo going again.
April 3rd, 2019
@annied I going to try and attempt this hopefully i will complete the month and on time as I normally get behind 😄
April 4th, 2019
I changed my mind from the apple tree (which is very close by and convenient which is why I chose it) to the old drive shed barn type structure we have at the back of our farm.
I hope I am allowed since I have not posted any photos of the tree yet but walked to the back for the last three days.
I can get back there most days now that snow is starting to go. It is so much more interesting than an old apple tree!
April 4th, 2019
@farmreporter lol
I'm all for whatever works best for you...as long as you're having fun that's what matters
April 4th, 2019
What a fun challenge! I'm already behind but love to join in!
April 4th, 2019
@ingrid01 behind is my middle name 😁 a few people have started a bit later...whatever works for you...we'd love to have you join us 😊

@annied

You have great interest in this Annie! I have been away (from home and from 365) for a short time at the beginning of April so have just seen your 30 shots challenge and will try to participate!
April 7th, 2019
@quietpurplehaze would love you to join in Hazel...others seem to be doing a much better job than me hahaha

I am doing my pink magnolia tree. It was so full of blooms this year. This subject covers two challenges...pinkapril2019 too.
