WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE – WEEK 118 – FLOWERS

Finally getting a chance to sit down and go through the submission for the FLOWERS theme for this week’s WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE. You can tell that holiday season is upon us as participation rates continue to plummet.

Therefore, let me make this announcement early:

Next Monday is Christmas! While the government might take that day off, there are no holidays for Photography 139. Every day I’m hustlin’! Plan to get you submission early!

But you didn’t come here to listen to me talk all tommyrot about participation rates, you came to see the submissions!

A solid week of submissions!

But enough dwelling on the past. Time to look to the future. We are all interested in the future, for that is where you and I are going to spend the rest of our lives. And remember my friend, future events such as these will affect you in the future! This week’s theme:


WEEK 119 - SCARY
SCARY!

SCARY! What a great theme! A little odd for a Christmas time, but the random generator has spoken. I don’t think I need to define SCARY! After all, different things scare different people. I guess I’ll find out what you find SCARY!

HOUSEKEEPING

A MESSAGE FROM THE PHOTOGRAPHY 139 RULES DIVISION

1. The picture has to be taken the week of the theme. This isn’t a curate your pictures challenge. This is a get your butt off the couch (my personal experience) and put your camera in your hands challenge. Don’t send me a picture of you next to the Eiffel Tower, when I know you were in Iowa all week. I will point out that I have let that slide some in the past. I will not in the future. Since it is literally about the only rule.

2. Your submission needs to be emailed to bennett@photography139.com by 11 AM on the Monday of the challenge. It should be pointed out that this blog auto-publishes at 12:01 on Mondays. So it wouldn’t hurt to get your picture in earlier.

That is it, them’s the rules.

A MESSAGE FROM THE PHOTOGRAPHY 139 SHAMELESS SELF-PROMOTION DIVISION

Nothing new to report. I’ll try to do better next week.

Want your own Photography 139 email subscription? Call, email, or text me and I’ll get you the hook up.

That’s all I got for today, so if the good Lord’s willin’ and the creek don’t rise, we will commune right here again next Monday. Hopefully it will be a very scary Monday!
