TPF Photo Challenge -March '13- "New Beginning"

[mishele]

Woot!! It's challenge time!! It was nice to see how excited everyone was for the challenge return!! Hopefully, that will translate into a lot of submissions this month!

For this month, we have decided to set the challenge topic as "New Beginning". The theme ties in nicely w/ the rebirth of our challenge. Please keep in mind that these themes are meant to be subjective. Think outside the box and get creative! Good luck to everyone! We can't wait to see what you come up with!!

For all those who wish to participate in this challenge please take a moment to read through the following:

• Any registered member of The Photo Forum may enter, though anyone foolish enough to be responsible for running the silly thing is not eligible to win.
• New challenges will be posted on or around the first of each month.
• Themes are intended to have some measure of flexibility. This is an art thing, folks! Do what you think is right and run with it!
• The challenge will remain open to new submissions until precisely midnight GMT on the last calendar day of the month.
• Within five days the images will be assembled for viewing and posted as a display and voting poll. Members of TPF will be allowed to vote for their favorite image. Polls will remain open for one full week.
• The winner will be announced at the end of the voting week.
• In the event of the tie, the moderators will select a winner.
• There are currently no prizes being offered, but we're hoping to change that. Bear with us and be sure to heckle as many moderators about this as humanly possible.
• I like monkeys.
• It is at the sole discretion of the challenge moderators to accept or reject any image submitted for any reason they deem appropriate.
• All images must not have been previously posted to TPF, and ideally should be taken during the challenge month. (The idea is to get folks out and thinking about new ways to shoot!)
• Images must be emailed to [email protected]. All submitted photos must include a form that needs to be completed. A copy of the form will be posted each month.
• Images can be no larger than 500k. All images must be 700 pixels long on their long edge. No edge of the image can exceed 700 pixels.
• Images submitted must be anonymous and must bear no markings or indications of who the image belongs to. Watermarks, names and copyrights embedded in IEXIF information, etc. count as identification and such images will be rejected.
• Images must be owned by the submitter and copyrighted or trademarked works from another party will not be accepted.

It has begun...

"New Beginning"

I fear a bunch of flowers popping up.

Think outside the box and get creative!

You should bold this too.

Now that you put that idea in their head....probably.
Done!

Dammit, I was hoping for something like "best photo of a bird" or "Best photo of a truck". I am terrible at metaphors, like a 3 legged dog trying to iron a pleated pair of pants.

That, and two other ideas, which I won't say (so as to not instantly put THOSE ideas in anyone's head, lol) automatically popped into my head. I think it's going to take several drinks tonight before I can remove those cliches sufficiently to start working on something more creative.

I just hope my entry doesn't turn out to be like my fashion sense. I've recently started a speaking ministry, which means actually having to pay attention to what I wear and not wearing jeans or khakis and turtlenecks all the time. Some friends have been trying to help me "get creative" with my wardrobe, but they accuse me of thinking "outside of, but right up against" the box. :lmao:

 

[PixelRabbit]

Excellent
I shall go and ponder....

 

[manaheim]

Dude! That's next months theme!!!

 

[pgriz]

Am I allowed to trip anyone running past me to the finish line? Rules are silent on that, so I guess as long as I'm not caught, it's all good.

Well, time to put the thinking cap on, connect it to the high-voltage idea generator....

Oh, and probably a stupid question caused by my lack of careful reading, but is there a limit of submissions per poster?

Only one submission per person. I'll add it to my post.

Excellent theme for a Reboot.
