2023 Members' Challenge : Weekly theme ideas please

[ricktas]

As we get toward the end of 2022, it is time to start looking at themes for our 2023 Members' Challenge.

The only requirement of the themes is that they are something that every member can do, no matter how much or how little photography experience they have, and where they live.

So please feel free to start replying to this thread with theme ideas. Together we can then build up the themes for next year's challenge.

After a bit of ing and ing my head too, and after some: ideas,
fingers ed that tis idea won't float like a lead

I dn't know why I didn't think of it before, but it fits the requirement that:
...they are something that every member can do, no matter how much or how little
photography experience they have, and where they live...

So after all that ado, I propose a Phone Camera Series that can be run over a few challenge
periods, using the likes of:

Best landscape with phone cam;
Best portrait with phone cam;
Best close-up with phone cam;
...
etc.

If people don't like the idea, they cam make me the bloke on the left side


(But only after midnight on the 32nd of the month )
