I received notification on Instagram this morning that @hellohahanarf has tasked me with a #5shotchallenge. In it, she proposes a theme for me and I have to take five photos that fit that theme. At least I think that's how it works.
Her choice? "Small."
Either she's obsessed with photos of Nathan, she misses photos of Stormin' Norman, or she's been listening to the wickedly lascivious and libellous rumors about me floating around the web. I don't even wanna know.
Okay, okay, all kidding aside.
Since I'm not doing a 365 photo challenge this year, these little one-off challenges can be fun. And I will definitely participate. But I'm not entirely certain if I'm going to be doing it the right way or not.
I plan to take one shot a day over the course of the next five days (including today) and post them to both my Instagram account and here on my blog. Hey, if nothing else, you and I get five days of blog fodder out of it!
I think I'm also supposed to pass on the challenge to one other person. But, to be honest, I have several people I'd like to see take part in this. Those with blogs will be notified below, those only on Instagram will be notified there, and those with both will see their names twice!
Oh, and just to satisfy a desire to dust the cobwebs off him, I'm dragging Norman along for the ride!
Here is my first...
I call this one "Small Computing."
I pass the #5shotchallenge on to:
- @mariechatters with the theme of "Presidential" (she lives in D.C.)
- @martymankins with the theme of "Saintly" (he lives in Utah, get it?)
- @kevin_spencer with the theme of "Deserted" (he lives in Arizona)
Feel free to bend the interpretation of that theme and also feel free to post on both your blog and Instagram if you're so inclined.
Challenge extended.
