Round Robin Challenge: Variety Show

Hi, Robins! Wow, the turnout for our most recent challenge was fabulous, with lots of great contributions. Are you ready for the next one? It comes to us from Nancy, of Nancy Luvs Pix. The challenge for Saturday, April 19th is

This challenge is now closed. Thank you for playing! :)
Variety Show!

Nancy explains:

Photograph something as viewed as an assortment...something that comes in different varieties. For example, it could be a bunch of flowers, or nuts, or crayons, or birds. The sky's the limit!

So how about it, Robins? Will you show us blooms or bottles, bows or butterflies, or beads or beans? How about a a jar of assorted nails, or a box of chocolates? Anything that comes in different varieties is on the menu, from donuts to ducks. Pick your subject, take your photo(s), and get ready to post the result on Saturday, April 19th. But first, as always, please RSVP in the comments thread below, thus:

Yes, I'll play!

And you're always welcome to email us with your questions, topic suggestions and so on. Just check the sidebar for our email addresses.

Got it? Good! Now go be photographers!

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...

Example

Carly
Ellipsis
http://ellipsissuddenlycarly.blogspot.com

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!


-Carly

Note: If you have any questions, or if you have an idea for an upcoming challenge, please feel free to contact either Steven, Karen or myself. You can find our email addresses on the sidebar. Don't be shy, speak up! We look forward to hearing from you. :)

Round Robin Challenge: A Nice Place to Sit

Three chairs designed by Frank Lloyd Wright at Taliesin West


Here we are again, Robins, getting ready for our next Round Robin Photo Challenge! This one comes to us from Tammie Jean, of the blog Long Drives To Nowhere. The topic for Saturday, March 8th, 2008 is

This challenge is now closed. Thank you for playing! :)

"A Nice Place to Sit"

As February turns into March, those of us who live in northern climes are probably getting mighty sick of winter. It's a great time to curl up in a chair with a good book, with or without a roaring fire nearby. Or perhaps we think longingly of sitting on that park bench or Adirondack chair we photographed last summer, watching the birds and the butterflies. Those of us who live in a hotter climate may actually like to sit outside in the late winter and early spring, before the return of the 100+ degree days. Wherever we live, at whatever time of year, we have our own little sanctuaries, a nice place to sit and think, or read, or write, or even take pictures.

So, what's your favorite place to sit? Alternatively, is there some place you'd like to sit but haven't had the opportunity? Seek it out, photograph it, and get ready to post the pictures on Saturday, March 8th. As always, you can post up to six days later if necessary, but please do not post early. And, of course, you'll need to RSVP. Please, please, please, please, PLEASE leave your RSVP comment in the following format:

Yes, I'll play!

Charles
Lord of the Chairs
http://eamesworld.blogspot.com/

Even if the title of the blog is the same as your blog's address, please list both, along with your name. Sometimes they don't match up, and people change blog names and/or addresses more often than you think. Don't make us research, retype, or guess at the right blog name or address! Just list it all for us each time, okay? Thanks!

All right, folks! Go be photographers!

Karen (for Carly and Steven)

Round Robin Challenge: Shoes

Hello Robins :)This challenge is now closed. Thank you for playing! :)

Are you ready for a new challenge? Well, our next challenge should be one that all of us can relate to, how does the idea of "SHOES" grab ya? We all wear SHOES, right? Some wear loafers, or wedges, while others wear slides or skimmers. Some are fans of sand shoes and sandals, while others will not be without their High-Heeled-High-Tops! Some make us feel tall, while others slim our ankles. Some are only for work, like the steel-toed boot. But like I said, "we all wear SHOES." So Robins, grab your camera, and your SHOES, and show off what it's like to walk in your SHOES.

The challenge date will be Saturday, February 23rd, and was suggested by Vicki, author of the blog, "Maraca." As always, before the fun begins, I need to remind you of a few important details...

1. DO NOT POST YOUR ENTRY EARLY!

It's not fair to the Robin who picks the challenge. If you can't make it on the day of the challenge, just drop us an email, or tell us when you leave your intention to play, and we will make a note next to your name on the Linking List, which is posted the day of the challenge.

2. ALL PHOTOS MUST BE YOUR ORIGINAL PHOTOGRAPHY

No fair borrowing photos from a friend or from a postcard. It's ok once in a while to show off a friend's photography, along with your own, as long as you have their permission, but we really want to see your creativity. Besides, why not encourage them to join the Robins and do their own entry? We love it when new folks join in the fun!

3. Please use your own words to describe the challenge.

DO NOT LIFT from the Round Robin Blog. Again, we really want to see your photography, and read your words. You are welcome to use the LINKING LIST, or the ROUND ROBIN GRAPHICS, but the description of the challenge should come from you.

4. PLEASE R.S.V.P. in the following manner, even if you have played before...

YOUR FIRST NAME
YOUR BLOG NAME
THE FULL ADDRESS OF YOUR BLOG OR JOURNAL

EXAMPLE

Carly
Ellipsis
http://ellipsissuddenlycarly.blogspot.com

Robins, you MUST R.S.V.P in this manner. I have been letting some folks slide, which really isn't fair to those who make the effort challenge after challenge. It is a tremendous help to us when you observe, and then follow the rules. Starting with this challenge, if you don't leave your FULL information, for each challenge you play, I won't add you to the Linking List. Your link will stay in the comments section, but I really need to encourage you to set an example for future players by following the rules. Fair enough? :)

Ok, that's it for now. If you are new to the challenges, you might want to read the **Welcome Entry & Rules Of Play** which can be found on the sidebar, and if you have any questions, you can email either Karen or myself and we will get right back to you. Steven is on a brief hiatus and will be joining us again soon. You can find our email addresses on the sidebar. Now, GO BE PHOTOGRAPHERS, and comeback here on Saturday, February 23rd, 2008, ready to show your Shoes. :)

-Carly :)

Round Robin Challenge: Eat Your Vegetables!

Hello Robins :)
This challenge is now closed. Thank you for playing! :)

Are you all ready to EAT YOUR VEGETABLES? Tee Hee. I hope so, because that is the subject of our next Round Robin Challenge! And that challenge will take place on Saturday, February 9th. Jill, one of our newest members,who authors the blog, "Letting Crazy Take A Spin" recently submitted the idea, and here is what she says...

"Anything veggie related. Veggies can be so interesting."

So, does that mean you should take a photo of yourself eating veggies? No, of course not. But you could photograph one of your very favorite vegetables to have with dinner. Or maybe a lot of vegetables on display, like at the grocery store or market stand. How about your favorite salad? Sure, why not? As long as it is veggie related you will be on track. Even if you HATE vegetables, you can take a picture of the one you hate the most, and then tell us why. LOL. Personally, I love my veggies, and I can think of a thousand different ways this challenge can be done. But first, every once in a while it's a good idea to review the rules a bit, so lets do that now.

**When you sign-up to play please do so in the following format...

Your Name (First or online handle)
Your Blog/Journal Name
Your Complete URL (Blog/Journal Address)

EXAMPLE

Carly
Ellipsis
http://ellipsissuddenlycarly.blogspot.com

**Robins, PLEASE remember to give us your full information, even if you have played with us before. We need your information in order to be able to link to you on the day of the challenge. It makes a lot of work for us on the day before the challenge, and the day of the challenge, if we have to track you down. We all have time constraints, so let's be thoughtful of others by observing the rules. :)

**Make sure all the photos you post, are photos you have taken yourself. No postcards or borrows, we want to see your photography. Once in a while it is ok to share a friend's photo, if you have permission from whoever you are borrowing from, but we really want your entries to come from your own personal creativity! :)

**We recommend that you post your entry on the day of the challenge, to have the best chance of having your entry been seen, but if you can't make it the day of the challenge, you are not late. You have up to one week after each challenge is played before it is closed to new entries.

**DO NOT POST YOUR ENTRIES BEFORE THE CHALLENGE DATE! That one is self explanatory. Right? :)

**You are allowed to use the Round Robin (Bird) graphics, found on the sidebar, and the completed Linking List, in each challenge entry, for the purposes of linking to the challenges. All other graphics are off limits, including the small photos used in each challenge, and the text accompanying it, which we use an example of what the challenge topic will be.

We are working on a FAQ page for you to get a quick review, it will be coming soon. Feel free to send us a question any time, and we will be happy to send you a quick reply. Steven is on a temporary hiatus, but you can still email Karen or myself . Our email addresses can also be found on the sidebar.


Ok, that's it. Go grab your cameras, go grab your Carrots, Peas, Lettuce, Cabbage, Brussels sprouts, Corn, or another veggie, and GO BE PHOTOGRAPHERS! Be sure to meet back here on Saturday, February 9th, ready to show off our creativity. See Ya Then! :)

Round Robin Challenge: Landmarks

Hi, Robins! Thanks for all the great entries for our "Railroads" challenge. Now it's time to announce the next one. The Challenge topic for Saturday, January 26th is

This Challenge Is Now Closed. Thank You For Playing!!!
Landmarks!

Our own Carly of the blog Ellipsis suggested this back in November. She explains it thus:

Again, let's take an opportunity to show off our hometowns. I live in the Bay Area, so I have no real shortage of recognizable landmarks, so what I would do is try to show those landmarks in an interesting lighting circumstance, such as a sunset, or under special lighting conditions. But I want to see other places, and the landmarks that make those places so special. A beautifully designed building, an incredible bridge, or a monument of some sort, or maybe even an unusual road sign. It's all good!

So. How about where you live? Is there an historic building or a famous statue that you'd like to photograph? A 200-year-old tree in the center of town? The world's oldest McDonald's? A funny sign? A bridge shaped like a diamondback rattlesnake? Whatever it is, RSVP in the comments below, go take your photos, and meet us all back here and in your very own blog on the posting date of Saturday, January 26th. You can post up to six days later if you need to, but please don't post your entry early. Your RSVP comment, as always, should be in this format:

I'll be there, with (liberty) bells on!
