Round Robin Challenge: Your One Perfect Scene Captioned

Hello Robins :) This challenge is now closed. Thanks for playing. :)

For our next challenge I thought it might be fun to try something a little different. So, lets take a departure from the ordinary, and branch out a little further into the creative. How does the assignment, Your Perfect Scene Captioned, grab ya?

Here's the idea. Grab your cameras, venture forth into the world, and find that one perfect scene in the viewfinder. Photograph it, and then name it. The one perfect scene could be in black and white or color. You can use special props provided by your photo editing program, and it can be of anything you are inspired to photograph. Want it to be exotic? Go for it. Want it to be surreal? Cool, can't wait to see it! Want it to be stark reality, sure, why not? As I have been traveling about from blog to journal, I have noticed some wonderful descriptions of what it was like to take the photo being displayed, and what the photo means to you. So, let's take it all one step further by providing a caption.

You have complete freedom here Robins, and nearly two weeks to come up with your captioned photo. It can be taken indoors or outdoors. In low lighting or with full bright lights on. Let your imaginations run completely wild, but keep in mind that is must be a family friendly photo. This challenge will be played on Saturday, April 5th. As always you can post your entry any time during that 24 hour period, but please remember not to post prior to that date. If for some reason you can't make it that day, but you still want to play, just let us know, and we will make a note of the date you will plan to play next to your name on the Linking List. That way you will have the best chance of your entry being seen. As always you can post your entry up to one week late, but it's best to let us know if you will be late, so we can get the word out.

Here is how you should R.S.V.P each time you play...

It really helps a lot to have your full information each time you play. Why? Well, it is less confusing for us if we don't have to track you down. Also, we have more then one Robin with the same name. It is always nice to know we have linked to the correct player, because we don't want to leave anyone out of the fun.

Ok Robins, go grab your cameras, and go be photographers! Comeback on Saturday, April 5th, ready to show off Your One Perfect Scene Captioned!
