As promised the next contest is going to be a little different. We all get used to the daily grind so here's something to make you look at your day to day life a little differently.
(Thanks to Tommy for providing the idea)

Theams
Monday: Monday mornings.
Tuesday: Commuters
Wednesday: Family time
Thursday: Taking a break
Friday: Enjoy the evening
Saturday: Sport
Sunday: Religion

On each of the days you need to take a photo based on the theme for that day. This isn't really a contest, so much as an assignment. There will be no voting at the end of the process, but everyone is invited to comment on the photos.

So how does it work?

  • You take one photo per day and submit it within 48 hours. So for Monday's contest, you need to need to take the photo on Monday and submit it by midnight Tuesday.
  • You can only take a particular photo on the day specified. e.g. you must take the sport photo on Saturday.
  • Each person may submit only one photo for each theme.
  • Submitting your photo: I will post a thread for each of the days. Simply post your photo in the relevant thread.
The contest starts on Monday 29th August, so you have a few days to start thinking of ideas.

Is this clear for everyone?

Sorry, forgot to mention:

  • There are no post processing rules
  • Photos must be no larger than 800 pixels at the longest dimension. Also, please try and keep the filesize down to under 200k if possible to make viewing the gallery easier for modem users.

Sounds very fun, but I'm having doubts I'll be able to come up with something for all days. Is it ok to submit only a few days? Also, the Sunday theme is Religion. Can I interpret religion any way I'd like, or does it indeed have to do with real religion?

I suspect CDS sneaked in and sabotaged my spelling.

Try for seven, but just submit whatever you can manage.

Definately. I've tried to choose the themes so that they can be interpreted fairly broadly. So do you worst! :)
