So I am going to attempt the August Photo-a-day challenge. It looks like so much fun and just the inspiration I need right now. Thank you so much to Amy at The Idea Room Blog for letting me know about it and a HUGE thank you to Chantelle at Fat Mum Slim for creating it ...I am excited to get started !!! Here is the info on the Challenge :
Here are the instructions that Fat Mum Slim posted (Thanks again...you ROCK!)
n a nutshell, just follow the list, use the daily prompt as
inspiration and take a photo. Share that photo anywhere you like,
Facebook, Instagram, Flickr, Twitter etc.
Here’s some more details on the list, explaining what each prompt
might mean – BUT you can interpret it however you like. There are no
rules.
1. Outside: Take a photo of outside {outdoors} or
something outside of something. So a person outside a door, a lolly
{candy} outside a lolly {candy} jar.
2. One: This can be anything. The number 1. The word one. A single item.
3. Coin: This can be money. Perhaps a coin you see on the ground. One from your wallet.
4. Somewhere you sat: Where have you sat today? Take a photo.
5. Logo: Take a photo of a logo, on something you buy,
somewhere you see it or something you have at home. Or even your own
logo? If you have one.
6. Writing: This could be your own writing, something you’re reading, or something someone wrote to you.
7. 8 o’clock: Take a photo of whatever you’re doing/seeing at 8am or 8pm. Or both.
8. Glasses: This could be drinking glasses, sunglasses or spectacles. Great creative in how you shoot them.
9. Messy: What’s a mess? Take a photo of it. Again, be creative. Think outside the box.
10. Ring: This could be a ring {like a wedding ring},
or a circle or even someone on the phone? It could be a whole host of
things. Even gymnast rings.
11. Purple: Take a photo of something purple.
12. Spoon: Take a photo of a spoon, the eating utensil.
13. Simple: Take a photo of simplicity, whatever this
means to you. Perhaps it’s a really simple photo {without much
distraction} or a photo of something simple in your life {a simple
dinner like eggs on toast or something}.
14. Arrow: Take a photo of an arrow.
15. Ready: What’s ready right now? Are you ready to explore? Is your lunch ready? Are you ready to leave? This one will get you thinking.
16. Food: Take a photo of food, real or play.
17. Faces: Do you see faces in things? In clouds, on cars? Take a photo. Or take a pic of real faces.
18. Inside: Go outside and look in, take a photo. Or take a photo of something inside something else.
19. Hole: Take a photo of a hole.
20. Today: Take a photo of something in your day today.
21. Cool: This can be something in temperature or something that’s ‘hip’.
22. Home: What reminds you of home? Or even take a photo of your home. Or simple a house.
23. Pair: Take a photo of a pair, two people, salt and pepper, two things that go together.
24. Path: Take a photo of a path, or your feet on the path.
25. Fresh: Take a photo of something fresh. Like fresh food, or the weather {if it’s fresh} or something cool {“That’s fresh!”}
26. Dream: What did you dream about last night? Or what are your ‘hopes and dreams’?
27. Tap: Take a photo of a tap, or someone or something ‘tapping’.
28. Clock: Take a photo of a time-telling device.
29. Down: Look down, take a photo. Or however you want to interpret this!
30. Card: Take a photo of a card, a business card, a loyalty card, a gift card or something else.
31. Hidden: Take a photo of something hidden.
So that’s the list. I hope you’ll play along. And if you do please let me know so i can follow it ....also let Fat Mum Slim know too in her comments section.. http://fatmumslim.com.au/here-it-is-photo-a-day-august-challenge-list/
