Round Robin: Dress Up

Hi, Robins! The next Challenge takes us into the world of textiles - and maybe into other worlds entirely. The topic for Saturday, April 5th is


 Dress Up 

My particular inspiration here, as you may guess from the photo, is costumes from SF cosplay. But the topic is much broader than that. Any kind of costume counts, any dress, tux and tails, doll clothes, anything worn by anything or anyone as long as it's out of the ordinary - fancy, elegant, vintage, stylish or just plain weird!

The usual guidelines apply:

1. Grab your camera and bring us one or more pictures of someone or something in fancy dress (costumes or formal wear or anything along those lines). Archived photos or videos are okay as long as you took them yourself.

2. RSVP in the comments below with your name and the name and URL of the place you plan to post your photo(s) or video(s).

3. On the Challenge date, Saturday, April 5, 2014, post the results on any blog, social media site or online photo album. Don't forget to link back to here in your entry, so your readers can check out the other Robins' contributions.

4. Please visit the other Robins' entries, and comment if so moved. The list of entries will be posted at the bottom of this entry starting around midnight MST on the Challenge date, and updated through the day.

That's all there is to it! Have fun, and go be photographers!

Round Robin Challenge: Being Green

Hi, Robins! The next Challenge is in honor of the coming equinox, but don't let that throw you!  The topic for Saturday, March 22nd is


Being Green


As Kermit the Frog reminds us, "Green is the color of Spring," but it's much more than that. Green is associated with plants and some animals, with U.S. currency and St. Patrick's Day, with ecological sustainability and the emotions envy and jealousy. For this Challenge, feel free to photograph anything green - but if it illustrates some larger concept of green-ness, so much the better!

The usual guidelines apply:

1. Grab your camera and bring us one or more pictures of something green (or on the green, or in the green, or green-minded, or...). Archived photos or videos are okay as long as you took them yourself.

2. RSVP in the comments below with your name and the name and URL of the place you plan to post your photo(s) or video(s).

3. On the Challenge date, Saturday, March 22, 2014, post the results on any blog, social media site or online photo album. Don't forget to link back to here in your entry, so your readers can check out the other Robins' contributions.

4. Please visit the other Robins' entries, and comment if so moved. The list of entries will be posted at the bottom of this entry starting around midnight MST on the Challenge date, and updated through the day.

That's all there is to it! Have fun, and go be photographers!
