This is slightly different this time. Your entry this time will be a photo AND a caption explaining why it means something to you, and you're being judged on the effect of both of them together.
The whole point of taking all these pics we take is to produce an image that moves people. Many times, we take a photo of something that's incredibly moving to us personally, but others don't know the backstory, and when they see it, it doesn't translate to them the same way. This is your chance to bring us with you by explaining. You'll want to write more than a sentence, and less than "too much." I won't word count you aggressively, but if you go on for TOO long you'll lose us. Special people / animals, special moment, special place... think about why it hits YOU so hard, and see if you can make it hit US that hard. This could be a picture of the best cup of coffee you ever had, if you can make us smell it with you. Even if your English isn't great, go for it - I'm excited to have perspectives from other places!
The challenge will close on or Halloween, October 31st.
All the usual Challenge RULES will apply, including:
1. Either take pictures that match the nominated theme or select some from your portfolio. You must be the photographer that created the images in order to enter it.
2. Only one entry per person, please. If you want to withdraw an entry and replace it with another, that is OK, but you must make it clear in the post containing your replacement pictures that this is what you've done. You can add or change the title and add to the edit line to let everyone know.
3. The decision of the curator at the end of the challenge is final - don't give him/her a hard time about it: this is just a friendly photo-challenge, after all!
4. The winner will assume the responsibility of curator for the next Challenge, and as soon as possible post a message in a new thread in the SC Photo Challenges forum, with details of the new theme. Don't forget - that opening message must include a copy of these instructions, which also double as the rules.
5. The curator cannot enter his or her own salon
