OK, so here's the idea...

July has 31 days, and I will list 31 different subjects below. You can take one pic per day and use one of the subjects from the list (in any order). What I think would be cool is, if you know you're going to participate, copy the list and make a post & paste the list in your post. Then, as you post a daily picture, remove that subject from your original list (so you can easily see what's still in your list).

A cool thing about this game is, people will be posting different things. Be smart, and pick and choose your daily subject so you don't paint yourself into a corner by leaving something you have no chance of shooting for last, and having July 31st trip you up because you aren't able to shoot your last needed subject.

Here are a couple rules:

Only one post/subject per day. If ya miss one, move along the next day.

Please describe the shot with a title from the list (cut/paste from your original list preferred).

No bashing anyone's pics or making rude comments...however, if someone posts something that you feel isn't as per subject, you can ask about it. Positive comments are welcome.


...that's it, I hope a lot of people will participate, and have fun. Feel free to ask questions!!!


Now the list:
1-A bridge
2-Something (predominantly) yellow
3-Bokeh (Background out of focus)
4-Fireworks (USA)/Candle
5-Light painting
6-Bicycle/motorcycle
7-Domesticated animal (pet)
8-Tree(s)
9-Clock
10-Natural running water (river/creek/stream, etc...)
11-a shot from your favorite chair/couch
12-A fruit
13-Candy (Non-chocolate)
14-Glasses/sunglasses/gog​gles
15-Clouds
16-A street/street name
17-Advertising/Ad/Brand name
18-Flag; Other than a country flag (U.S.A., Britain, etc...)
19-Something (predominantly) green
20-Dust/dirt/mud
21-Something loud
22-Rust, something rusty
23-Someone/something sleeping
24-Chocolate (Candy)
25-Sunset (again, lol)
26-Leather
27-Human feet, shoes or no shoes
28-Stone(s), or something made of stone
29-Something people ride (No bikes/cars)
30-Something hot
31-Something (Other than a wall) predominantly white


I have the list in the very next post that you can copy to keep track in an easy fashion. Have fun!!

And don;t forget, this is a NEW photo each day, no reaching back into that reserve of oldies;) It makes us get out and take a photo a day.;)

Yep! This is like 365 blogs.a new photo a day.get up, look at the list, and shoot! You can also "think" outside the proverbial box as far as shooting goes..as long as it contains the concept.

I'm game for this month as well. I know I'll miss a few days because I will be out of town with no internet (camping). If I'm lucky there won't even be cell coverage!

Welcome new players! This is fun, and gets you learning more about your camera and gear. Its a great learning experience for those who are just starting out.Thing is, take your time, you have ALL day....take your camera with you to work if you are able..you may notice things around you that were "unseen" before:D

Actually, I kind of like the idea of finding one per day, in order. A bit of pressure will make it more fun.

1-A bridge,

Work and other boring life things often get in the way of MY TIME, so im wondering, as long as the picture is "taken one a day" do they have ro be POSTED one a day?

I can shoot my first today but Mondays I work very early so im in bed by 700pmthe sometimes. That doesn leave me much time to take care of other business Sunday afternoons...

This is part of why I didn't get all if my shots done for June....


-im just trying. sometimes i succeed
