Other ideas for the Photo Challenge

I’ve been thinking a little about the Photo Challenge, what we do, and why.

In the Challenges that I set, I try to provide inspiration and ideas that are equally applicable to to beginners and professionals. It’s up to you if you want to snap something on your camera phone, or if you want [...]

Meet & greet

When the Photo Challenge was back on Stu’s blog, I think we had an “introduce yourself” post. Quite a few people have joined the Challenge since then, so I think it would be a good idea for us to do it again.

It doesn’t matter if you’re not a regular contributor – add a [...]

Today’ results

Today’s “Sport and Action” results are a bit delayed today, partly due to the Bank Holiday and partly because two of the entries have been submitted on undeveloped film.

Just as soon as I’ve sorted these films and then found my film scanner (still moving house, you know!) then the results will be published.

[...]

Brief outage

Apologies for the brief interruption this afternoon, which one or two people contacted me about.

I was moving the Photo Challenge website to a new server, which should mean it’s now faster and more reliable. There’s a ton more storage space, so keep sending in your photos!

If you spot anything wrong with [...]

Some figures

It’s now been near enough 7 months since I took over the reins of the Challenge from Stu. In this time, 28 Challenges have been set (and 27 have been completed – still time to get your entry in for Whose Hand?).

So how have we been doing? According to the magic graph, we’ve [...]

Photo Challenge on Facebook

The Photo Challenge now has a group on Facebook.

If you’re on Facebook, please do join and give your support to the group.

There are also some other ways to stay up to date with happenings at the Photo Challenge:

Twitter feed RSS feed Email notifications

Follow Photo Challenge on Twitter

I’ve set up a feed for the Photo Challenge on Twitter.

I will publish new Challenges on it, so if you are a Twitter user, feel free to follow the Photo Challenge for updates that way.

Banner images

You may have noticed that this site has a randomly-chosen banner image along the top.

Some came with the website template, and I added a few of my own. It seems only right that everyone’s pictures should be used on a collaborative photography website, and the New Year is an ideal time for new [...]

New Year's resolution

A very happy New Year to you all!

This is just a quick reminder that the deadline for the Christmas Challenge is at noon on Tuesday 5th January.

Sorry if you’re sick of hearing about Christmas by this point. If you haven’t yet taken a photo, remember the Challenge was about taking a photo [...]

Reminder: “Texture” challenge deadline

I set the first challenge, Textures, a few days ago now. Initially i didn’t set a deadline

The deadline has now been set at noon on Tuesday 24th November.

This will have given you all about a week and a half to take photos. Looking forward to seeing your entries!
