I have always liked seeing member’s photos of their locations. We tend to take our home town’s beauty for granted, but others may see it as different and unique. A variation of this challenge was done back in 2002 and was one of the first challenges. We have many new members since that time so I think it will be interesting for everybody. I surely hope you'll take part and have fun doing it........
Home Town Pride
We have members from many corners of the world. What does your home town look like? What features in your town would you like others to see? Is it the church on the corner, the baseball diamond where the little leaguers are playing, the village ice-cream parlor? What about the local movie theatre, the skyline, the mall, or the park down the street? Mountains, valleys, lakes, historical buildings, etc. Show us something special from your home town.
Please give your submission a title, the more creative, the better. Do not reveal your location until after the voting period. All entries must have a title. The Challenge is open to all members of the Olympus Talk Forum who joined before the beginning of the Challenge period and the photos must be taken with an Olympus digital or DSLR camera. The Host has elected not to submit an entry or to participate in the voting.
The host has decided to drop the rules for this challenge. There are no limitations to creativity using any photo editing software. Imagine this photo will be published in a tourism brochure. Make it look ready to publish……….
