No other criteria as far as I am aware Rose. Any camera, any lens, any subject, just taken on that day is all. Have to say though, not everyone sticks to the 'taken on the day' rule, which is pointless to me!Just a question about the Today challenge ..... I'm assuming it's to post an image taken on that day? Are there any other criteria to be met? Thanks.
I'm missing the SiF .....

I don't know about cross posting, it's not something I have consciously done! Is the forum is okay with it anyway? Perhaps Moonmind would advise, when he has spare moment!Thanks for the information. Not much point if we don't stick to "taken on the day". I would not post if it wasn't taken on the day.......
Is cross posting allowed?
As long as the picture is taken on the right day, you can post it later. This seems to be a reasonable amount of latitude to keep folks engaged with the thread.Thanks for the information. Not much point if we don't stick to "taken on the day". I would not post if it wasn't taken on the day.......

Sorry Steve, I don't quite understand that!As long as the picture is taken on the right day, you can post it later.
Not Steve, but if I should interpret the gist of it, it means that if you have for some reason or the other not been able to post, but been able to make photographs, you can post a string of those later.Sorry Steve, I don't quite understand that!
addendum:@Charzes44 , @Rose McGill
The intention behind this special thread is to post one photo a day that was taken on that day. Apart from very few exceptions for which usually the reasons are given (illness, business trip, etc.) those who are in it stick to this rule. You're free to use whatever camera with whatever lens you want. And of course there's the one or other "last minute shot just not to miss the day".
Most of what came in over these now almost three years can be characterized as follows: Highly interesting, versatile, varied, humorous, with a completely different motif area or perspective or image composition ... in short: a daily stimulus and indirect invitation to leave old paths and visual habits, to get involved in something new.
Many a laugh in the morning or during the day when looking at the posts, sometimes a feeling of *wow, I ought to try that as well*, and - not to forget - besides the eye-openers among the pics the ear-openers of Matt's musical greetings.
Thanks a lot Matt for your stamina in keeping this thread going besides all the rest that keeps you busy and thanks to all who kept this little group going and supplied us with their so very special posts.
If the stretch thing matters, a date to remember is a good place to start - or a day on our list, like 1070 or even 1096 or 1097, the last and first days, respectively, of our third and fourth years. That said, if you're just in it for the fun of it (honestly, most of us are, all told), any day will do.Glad to see the past few Q&A type posts about this. I've been tempted to jump in on Today, having enjoyed the Single-in events and photographing every day anyway. I've thought the Today threads would be a good way to keep on just making some fun or interesting-but-different images to my usual stuff each day, or even just to encourage me to wear a camera to places I might otherwise not. I just haven't been sure I'd be able to post every single day, so I've not jumped in. Sounds like missing the occasional day, though, then making it up, is forgiven - so that's encouraging.
My SiF finished weakly, due to bad weather and an injury, but both have recovered so this may be a good time to start. Or perhaps it makes more sense to start on the 1st of a month(?)...hmm.
If you take a photo today, you can actually post the image in this thread tomorrow.Sorry Steve, I don't quite understand that!
