Also, for #2, I know I'm jumping the gun by a day, but I'm hitting the road this afternoon, so I figured I'd throw out a topic suggestion of: "Away from Home"
I think we said no voting and no winner. That we'd discuss the photos and any aspects of them we found particularly interesting.
I think one problem was having them all split out in separate threads so that it was difficult to find them; perhaps one thread but with people saying which picture they're referring to in the title of their response would have been better.
The festive period probably wasn't the best time to finish it and start another one but I'm up for restarting now.
A few suggestions
Cold (you choose whether it's subject, tone or colour of the image)
Contrast
New Beginnings
Darkness
Numediaman - think you've got the wrong end of the stick here. This thread is about suggesting ideas (without pictures) for photos to be taken in the next month.
Then you have to go and take the photo that fits the theme - not post in others' pictures. Let people come to their own conclusions of what a theme means and don't inadvertently influence them with images.
I can't wait for assignment two ... it's amazing how I've only had this camera for not even a month, and I've already taken nearly 3000 pictures ... I'm obsessed I tell ya, and it's just a point and shoot! x_x
