A jolly Christmas challenge..?

[andyoxon]

What do you reckon, or have we had enough?   

Could say, post 1-3 photos with a Christmas/'seasonal' theme taken between e.g. 24 - 26 Dec. 11  Not necessarily for voting on, informal discussion perhaps?  Could limit it to 'around the house', or summat.

I don't see why not.  It will annoy Pancho, anyway 

[ed_o_brain]

I think that date range might be a bit narrow. Maybe extend to the end of December?

[Charlotte]

I'm up for it, definitely.  If we have to have twinkly fairly lights onna tree cluttering up the lliving room, at least I can use it to shoot some portraits with funky bauble-bokeh...

[David Martin]

OK, how about 12 days of christmas - one photo a day from 25th for 12 days.

[Charlotte]

Tempting.  But I'm bound to screw up and miss one.

That said, I'm planning on a one-a-week project next year, so a short lived one-a-day competition might be a good discipline to get into...

[David Martin]

Aren't we all. You don't have to do every one.. but it would be nice to get a theme through them all..

[andyoxon]

Not sure I'd manage something interesting for the whole period, but could have a go.  Re. theme - could be fairly relaxed if wanted, with a Christmas time angle, but if necesssary the connection being that images are taken over the 12 days.  e.g. Life in the 12 days of Christmas.. ?  What do people think?

[David Martin]

One image per day per person. One thread per day. Any subject, just has to be taken between midnight and midnight local time on that day.

We could add a stipulation that the first day has the theme 1, the second the theme 2 etc. as in the infamous and much rewritten song.

Themes would limit entries in my opinion.

[Charlotte]

I agree with Jaded.  Twelve pics and you enter every one if you can. 

I suggest the following: at least one of your twelve (or how ever many you manage) must be Christmassy.  The person with the most daily wins gets the overall trophy.

[andyoxon]

My holiday time probably won't be that 'interesting'...   

Sounds fine.

[andyoxon]

OK, so from midnight onwards - off we go...  have fun

[David Martin]

Separate thread for each day? Voting when it is all over (as some pics may take a while to process. If I do LF ones then I'll probably have to schedule a trip to the dark room at work)

[Charlotte]

OK, so from midnight onwards - off we go...  have fun

Righto, that sounds like a plan - I'm in 

[ed_o_brain]

Where are we starting threads for submissions?
Is it a thread per day?

I don't think I can participate every day because of other commitments but I'll give it a go.

[Domestique]

Is there a thread for xmas day, or does this start today 

[David Martin]

There should be a thread for Christmas day but I didn't take any pictures yesterday so haven't started one.

[ed_o_brain]

I'll start one in a bit...
