October 2011 Photography Challenge

Information

Take a photo each day as listed in the photo above.  Push yourself to try something different for the day.  We’re all learning and exploring together.  You can post the photos as you go each day or post a recap at the end of the week.  Your choice.  Make sure to comment on each other’s photos via Twitter and/or blogs to keep each other motivated.  On Twitter use #OctPhotoChallenge.  On Flickr, our group is titled “October 2011 Photography Challenge“.  Thanks to That Wife to putting together a Google Calendar for us!  This is my first challenge, and I love that it really feels like a community has come together to learn.

You can also add a participant’s button to your page courtesy of White Peach Photo!

To add this button to your page, cut and paste the following block of text.  Make sure the quotes are straight up and down after you paste onto your page.
