Round Robin Challenge: "Magic"

This Challenge Is Now Closed! Thanks for playing!
Greetings Robins! It's time to ring in the new year with some Magic as chosen by Steve of PAPARRAZI BY PROXY. That's right, the topic is magic! This will be the first Round Robin Photo Challenge of 2007, so lets make it magical!

For the week of January 10th, the theme is:

"Magic"

If you are looking for a little inspiration, browse Wikipedia's articles on Magic. Flickr has some magic. All kinds of magic, from a magic moment to fantasy magic to magic of the supernatural kind. Makes some magic with your camera.

Do visit the rules of play if it's your first time playing or have sat out a few rounds.

Round Robin Challenge: "Past Vs. Present" (for 12/27/06)

Greetings, Robins!
This Challenge Is Now Closed!
Here we are again with another Challenge, this time for a posting date of Wednesday, December 27th. The topic comes to us from Connie, author of Windswept - Connie's Country Life. I'll let her introduce it:

How about: Past vs Present.
One could show

• a photo of how they looked, say, 20 or so years ago and now...
• or maybe the house they lived in, then and now...
• or their garden, then and now.

The possibilities are left to the imagination.

I like this one a lot. Pretty much everyone has old photos of something or someone that's still important to us, still a part of our lives today. Normally we don't get to use these in the Round Robin, because the idea is to take new photos based on that week's theme. But this time, we get to do both: show off an old photo, and compare and contrast it with a brand new one of the same person, place or thing. Or maybe it's a completely different person, place or thing, say an ex-husband and the current one, or your old house versus your new apartment, or the recreation you lavished your time on when you were young and foolish, vs. what you spend time on now that we're all older (and probably still foolish). Neat, huh? I know I'm looking forward to it!

Okay, now try to stay awake, 'cause I'm going to run down Da Rules again, briefly!

• Do RSVP by leaving your first name, blog name and URL in a comment to this entry (see below for an example*)
• Don't post before Wednesday, December 27th. Patience, my friends!
• Do post on Wednesday, December 27th, any time from midnight to midnight (but if you must delay, up to Tuesday, January 2nd is okay)
• Don't completely forget to post your entry
• Do mention the Round Robin and the topic, and do link back to this blog (and if you include the linking list, that's even better!)

That's it! So in the midst of your holiday revelries, dig out that one precious (or memorable, or evocative, or silly) photo from the past, and keep it in mind as you (yes, I have to say it) go be photographers!

Karen (with Carly and Steven)

Happy Holidays!
