Anyone want to participate in a monthly, bi-weekly, or weekly photo contest ?

I'm thinking something along these lines:

A whatever time frame we give it, theme.  and everyone enters and votes .  The Winner choses the next theme and maybe get's an e-certificate of accomplishment and bragging rights ?

I'm an outdoor natural light shooter by passion,  but living in West Michigan has me indoors from most of December through Mid March, and having a contest like this can help to fight the winter blahs.

voting could be done by private message to one of the mods if they're interrested, or one of the more experienced posters here in the photo forum.

My thought's on a time frame are,  a month is probably too long, and a week can be too short if you're busy or only partly dedicated.

Themes can be literally anything, a single word, a concept, a particular object or person .

feel free to add your thoughts, and maybe we can get this off the ground after the new year ?

I hope you get some takers on this. I might even participate in a few - but I know I couldn't commit to being part of a regular weekly thing. Sometimes my schedule is too hectic, and sometimes I'm just too tired! But I'd definately follow the thread to see what people are shooting. There are a few really good photographers here too.

No thanks.  I post for fun, don't like competitions of any sort.

I think that might be fun! I'd prefer a monthly contest though. I don't think I have the time for it to be a weekly thing.
