The mods and I have been working on the Photo of the week themes for 2013. We have come up with something different this year.
We will be holding several 'mini-series' competitions. We have a range of ideas that will allow members to explore a theme over several weeks, each week having a different sub-theme but all bound to the overall 'mini-series' theme.
To give you an example of what we have in store for you as photo of the week competition themes. One of the 'mini-series' is possibly going to be 'The suit series'. So under this series would be four weekly competitions titled : Clubs, Hearts, Spades, Diamonds. Each week over a four week period of the 'mini-series' the theme would be one of the four suits, but we may not allow any entry to be an actual playing card.
These 'mini-series' themes are still being finalised, but you might see things like a geometric series, a symbols series, etc.
We hope to be able to give you more details of some of the series shortly. We may list the series titles, give you some of the weekly themes, but we might also hold back on a few.
We are also working on some ideas for competitions where the entry must be taken after the theme is announced. We also have a big portrait competition being planned with some great prizes on offer for that one. For some fun we are planning a political one around the time of the Federal Election.
So there you go, a few hints on what we have in store for you for Photo of the Week during 2013. Looking forward to managing these comps and seeing your entries throughout the year.
