Round Robin Challenge: By The Water

Hi Robins :) NOW CLOSED!

Save the date! Our next challenge will take place on Saturday, July 31st! What will our challenge be, you ask? Glad you asked. This time around the challenge will be "BY THE WATER." Sound good? Any interpretation is fine, as are archived photos, but you know, I love seeing you grab new shots. So, go out there and find some bottled WATER. A WATERing Hole. A Glass of WATER. WATER on the beach. It's all good. :)

But Carly, how do we play this challenge?

Glad you asked! Here are some general guidelines for how we play the Round Robin Challenges.

1. PLEASE DO NOT POST YOUR ENTRY PRIOR TO THE CHALLENGE DATE. In this case, the date would be Saturday, July 31st, 2010.

2. Please remember R.S.V.P. your intention to play by providing us with your full information each time you play, using the following format...

Your Name
The Name of your Blog
The full address of where your entry can be found

EXAMPLE

3. It's a good idea to comeback here on the day of the challenge and let us know you have posted. It helps us out a lot and keeps things moving along smoothly.

4. If you are new to the challenges, please let us know so we can give you a proper welcome!

5. You can post your entry at any time after midnight on the day of the challenge, and for up to one week after we play, but posting on the day of the challenge guarantees you the most visitors.

If you have any questions on how to play, or how to leave us your intention to play, feel free to email us. You can find our contact information on the sidebar!

Okay, that's it. Go have fun. Go be photographers. See you back here on Saturday, July 31st!

Round Robin Challenge for 1/30/10: Water

Hi, Robins! Well, we just had a look at Fire with our Candlelight topic, and before that we had the Earthy topic of Roots. So let's go for another of the four classical elements, shall we? The topic for Saturday, January 30th is

Water

as suggested by Angela of Chocolate Syrup for the Soul (her blog is readable by invitation only).


This is a wide-open topic to have fun with. What aspect of water will you show us with your camera? Running water? Bath water? Water in puddles, or water falling from the sky? A glass of water, half empty, or the edge of an ocean, spreading out as far as the camera can see? It's totally up to you!


We do have some guidelines, though, and from time to time it's good to remind folks of them, for people who are new to the Challenges and for people who lose track of details:


1. DO RSVP in the comments with your name or handle, the name of your blog and the blog's full URL, thus:

Yes, I'm prepared for water!

http://noreallyafloodiscoming.blogspot.com

Please include these details EVERY time you play. It helps us to compile the Linking List, and it cuts down on errors. People frequently change blogs, so don't expect us to assume it's the same blog as last time. Also, please proofread the URL before posting the comment. We tend to post the link you gave us, typo and all, which kind of makes it hard for anyone to reach your blog!


It's also helpful if you leave another comment after you've posted, to let us know your entry is up.


2. DO NOT post your entry before the Challenge date. The idea is for everyone to post on that date (or if necessary, up to six days thereafter), so that readers can conveniently visit all the entries. We don't want to scroll down to something you did two weeks ago.


3. DO make sure the entry is relevant to the Challenge. Occasionally someone leaves a link to something they posted that has little or nothing to do with the topic. At minimum your entry should mention the Round Robin Photo Challenges and the current topic. Otherwise, it's not really a Round Robin entry, is it? A link back to this blog is strongly encouraged, so that people can find every one else's entries and not just yours. A Linking List of participants is posted here around midnight as the Challenge date begins, and is updated over the next day or two. If you want to include this in your entry too, that would be most helpful.


A full set of guidelines is posted here. Please check it out if you are new to the Robins or have any questions. You can also email us with questions, concerns or future topic ideas. Our email addresses are on the sidebar.


Got it? Good! Start taking your watery photos, and get ready to post them on Saturday, January 30th. See you then!


Karen
