Round Robin Challenge: See the Music!

Hi, folks! We had a great turnout yesterday, with more than a few new Robins as well as lots of participants who have been playing along with us for months or years. Well done, one and all!

This time out, we're going with one of my old RRPC suggestions. It's been languishing in our topic pool for quite a while now, so I've decided to give it a chance. The Challenge for Saturday, May 2nd is



See the Music!
NOW CLOSED!
You can be literal with this one, with photos of sheet music, musical instruments, stereo equipment etc., or more abstract, showing something that reminds you of a particular song. Illustrate a Rolling Stones lyric, or photograph your favorite local band, or catch your kid practicing the guitar or clarinet! If it's suggestive of some kind of music, it counts!

As usual, we want to remind you of a few guidelines, as you prepare to post your awesome musical pictures:

1. Be sure to RSVP in the comments below, using this format:

Yes, I'll play!

Wood and String

Be sure to let us know if you're new to the Robins, or posting to a different blog than before. Sometimes I rely on the sidebar's list of Robins to see who has posted so far, and that doesn't work if the blog your Challenge entry is on isn't listed. Please help us direct everyone properly to the relevant blog by providing your full info each time.

2. WAIT for the Challenge date! Please post no sooner than Saturday, May 2. Just past midnight local time is fine. If need be you can be up to six days late, although we don't recommend it. But please do NOT post early!

3. Please acknowledge the Round Robin Photo Challenges in your entry, including either a link back here or the linking list we post around midnight Pacific each time. This helps everyone find each other's entries.

4. Sometimes people ask whether they can post more than one photo. As someone who frequently goes way overboard herself, posting lots of photos, let me assure you that the answer is yes!

5. Have fun!

Now - go be photographers!

Round Robin Challenge: In Flight


Hi Robins :) NOW CLOSED!

Save the date, our next challenge will be played on Saturday, April 18th and the subject will be "In Flight." It was suggested by me, and while it is also similar to some other suggestions about flight and motion, this time we are specifically looking for something that is in flight. Sound good? If so, we look forward to you joining us for the challenge, but first there are a few things to keep in mind about how to play along...

Please R.S.V.P. your intent to play, in the following format...

Your First Name
The Name Of Your Blog, Journal Or Website
The Full Address Of Your Blog, Journal Or Website

Example

Carly
Ellipsis
http://ellipsissuddenlycarly.blogspot.com

We need this information each time you play a challenge with us. We get new members all the time, and it helps us immensely if we don't have to track down who you are. Also, if you are new to the challenges leave us a little note indicating that this will be your first time playing so we can give you a proper welcome on the day of the challenge.

Also, PLEASE DO NOT POST YOUR ENTRY PRIOR TO THE CHALLENGE DATE! We don't post the Linking List until the day of the challenge, so posting your entry won't get you listed sooner then anyone else. Please observe this request. As Steven says... "It's not a race." As always, if you have any questions about the challenge, feel free to email us. You can find our contact address on the sidebar.

Note: Steven is taking a temporary hiatus from hosting RR Challenges, so while he is away please direct your questions or concerns to Karen or myself. :)

Ok, that is all there is to it. We will see you on Saturday, April 18th.

GO BE PHOTOGRAPHERS!

:)
