My $ 0.02 ...or € 0.019, or £ 0.016, or ¥ 2.73 

Keep it simple but not simplistic. That is, have a single theme per challenge but make it interesting. Not unattainable (e.g., blue Ferraris), just interesting. For example:

  • School buses / transport
  • Water tanks / towers
  • Night time clouds
  • Non-green plants (pretty much anything right now LOL)
  • Flat open horizons
  • Water faucets

...although all things concerned we need to be cognizant of not creating challenges to shoot anything that might be mistaken as illegal, questionable, etc., in a social or legal context.

Anyway, you get the picture. I'm not proposing these as actual possibilities, just ideas. Also I'm not necessarily advocating changing anything, again just offering ideas. Looking at them now, these are all objects, but they could also be more conceptual.

However I do like the idea of a theme / challenge that has no 'verdict' other than feedback from viewers (which I would encourage as a gentle 'requirement' of the challenge).

Just rambling...
