March 2011 Challenge

March 2011 Challenge

Here is a photo I shot in Washington DC. This shot is straight out of the camera sensor dust spots and all!

Lets see what you guys can do with it and we'll take submissions through the end of the month and I'll post up a new Challenge on April 1st.

Enjoy!

The Guidelines:

1. This is not a competition, all skill levels are invited to participate.

2. Download the attached image to your computer.

3. So the page can load quicker, please limit yourself to one image per post. If everyone posts 3 or 4, it takes forEVER to load the page.

4. The idea here is to see how everyone tackles the same photograph but in various different ways. Encouragement and suggestions helps improve us all. You can use any method of editing, software, techniques etc.

5. Suggestions for upcoming assignments always welcome... send me a PM or start a thread.

6. There is no time limit. Post whenever.. even weeks or months after the topic is posted. The idea is to try and help inspire yourself to do something different - not to fit you within strict guidelines.

7. HAVE FUN
