Photo Scavenger Hunt - 05-17-2007, 01:33 PM


Here's a feeler for an idea:
A Photo Scavenger Hunt.

The idea is, a list of items/topics/etc will be published and from that moment you'll have 48-72 hours (or whatever limit we put) to get as many of them as you can and post them online.

No prizes or anything, except to gain the glory of scavenger hunt winner, or heck maybe even be the one to pick the list for the next hunt.

Basic list will be about 20 items/topics long, and each image you post with an item in it is worth a point. If more than one item is in the image you get a bonus of an extra point per item (so an image with 2 items in it is worth 4 point instead of 2). (No photoshopping allowed).

So how many of you would participate in this?

(some additional info: items/topics/etc will not be location specific, so it won't be something like Astrodome)

Great idea as long as it is not this weekend. I'll be offline and in the boonies until late Sunday night and would really like to participate.

Like most others, it sounds good, but is dependent on available time.

I say go for it and see what happens.

It would force me to find subjects outside my norm... that would be a good thing!
