Here's an idea for a fun game.  How many people would be interested in this? Since there seems to be a number of photogs monitoring this forum I thought it may be fun. Photo Scavenger Hunt --------------------- Rules (can be edited in future based on popular opinion) - First person to snap a pic (and post it) of the requested item, situation, scenery etc and is approved by the requester, gets to pick the next item to be photographed.
- If the person who requested the next item is not readily available, general consensus from other participants can approve the pic.
- If there is obviously no doubt the pic meets the requirements, no approval needed. I think everybody here can reliably adhere to the honor system
- If more than one person submits a pic before general consensus approves it, first person approved gets to pick the next item.
- Must be a pic you took yourself. Verifiable by including 'Kindleboards:<your forum name>' written/printed on a piece of paper, signboard, lipstick on a wall, or any other method as long as it's part of the pic. No photochopping your signature and superimposing it into the pic.
- If the requested pic involves a person, the person must be obviously aware of, and approving of, the pic being taken (ie...they're posing or smiling for the camera). For example, if the requested pic is "A man exposing plumber's crack with a piece of fruit protruding from his belt-line." Then said 'man' must be aware you're taking his picture and a willing participant. No unsuspecting victims allowed.
- Pics must adhere to the general 'Safe For Work' premise. If you wouldn't wish to be caught with the photo in the workplace, then it isn't appropriate. And by Workplace, this does not include those of you who may work in strip-clubs, houses of irrepute etc..
- The person selecting should make an attempt to select something that everyone else should have to make a decent effort to achieve. For example, 'I want to see a pic of a No-Trespassing Sign with a bullet hole in it' would take a bit of effort, whereas 'I want to see a book open to page 20 on a computer desk' would be too simple.
- Time limits... this can be debated based on how many people demonstrate an interest. Once a reasonable time limit can be assessed, a pic request can be changed/modified if the task proves too difficult. This rule can be edited later.
- The person requesting the next pic is ineligible for submitting a pic for that round. (for obvious reasons)
- These rules can be amended, or more rules added if anybody can think of more.
So... to kick this off (maybe it should be somewhat easy to get things rolling), first item requested... 'A dog/cat/pet wearing sunglasses' Yeah yeah, breaking the rule of making it easy as this can easily be manufactured (I could just as easily have specified it had to be a reptile), but just tryin to get the ball rolling. |

nope.. sorry Corky, ya missed this rule of his:
Verifiable by including 'Kindleboards:<your forum name>' written/printed on a piece of paper, signboard, lipstick on a wall, or any other method as long as it's part of the pic.
Although I have no doubt that is a picture you took of your poor lil yorkie.

Yep yer right, I didn't specify a living creatures lol! You get to pick next luv.  Corkyb, it would have been nice if you could use your avatar. As mentioned, there's probably no doubt you took the picture. But rules is rules.  The objective is to get people out-and-about snapping pics. |

OK... I'd like a Kindle, held with two hands (one on the left and one on the right), with the two hands unmistakably belonging to two different people.

You got it!  If you look you can see they're both "right" hands, one belonging to 8yo DD and one to 41yo DH |

Hmmm I thought that would be easy, but I don't want to be a threadkiller! Last bump for a poodle or I'll change the item!
