WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE REMINDER – GOVERNMENT

Here is your weekly reminder for the WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE.

This week’s theme is:


WEEK 76 - GOVERNMENT
GOVERNMENT!

REMEMBER THE RULES!

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. 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.

WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE REMINDER – MUSIC

I had a request that there be multiple posts about the WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE theme from somebody this week because they find it difficult to keep track of the weekly theme.

I told this person that Photography 139 isn’t a nanny state and that to do such runs contrary to Photography 139’s secondary Mission Statement. The one you don’t find on the ABOUT page of the Photography 139 website.

The Photography 139 Secondary Mission Statement:

We do not train to be merciful here. Mercy is for the weak. Here, in the streets, in competition: A man confronts you, he is the enemy. An enemy deserves no mercy. STRIKE FIRST. STRIKE HARD. NO MERCY SIR!

It is one of many Photography 139 Secondary Mission Statements.

However, being a magnanimous leader, I have consented to this request. At 4 PM on Fridays, I will post a blog reminding everybody of this week’s theme. I figure most people take their photo during the weekend and nobody should have to work later than 4 PM on a Friday. We weren’t meant to live like that.

Reminder. This week’s theme:


WEEK 75 - MUSIC
MUSIC!

This reminder will replace the Monday morning text message I send to frequent contributors. The People’s President is magnanimous, but he also doesn’t have all the free time in the world.

Luther World is Round, Mr. Lynch

More Small World stuff. Working on blendingthe sky together.


Luther World

I might give you a little break from this, might not though.
