October 2011 - Photography assignment - BW or Monochrome
I was thinking perhaps of B&W or monochrome such as sepia or selenium for the monthly challenge. Either by setting your camera for B&W or converting in your editing program.
For the advanced - window light perhaps? A portrait where someone is obviously lit by a window light would be ideal but an object or pet would be cool too.
I was certainly happy to see the participation in the colour yellow challenge that we had this month. I hope whatever we decide on we can get the same level of participation. :)
I like your ideas but I have two of my own:
Regular Challenge: Red -- There will be lots of red leaves and red apples in October!
Advanced Challenge: Creative Self Portrait -- Let's get out from behind the camera (or not if you have a mirror) and have some fun posing.
I'm for B&W challenge and (I don't know if it can express my option for this one) Creative Self Portrait for advance challenge.
So one from JAS, one from Iguanasan :)
didn't we just do creative self portrait this summer? I'm cool with it either way.
love the idea of window light. that would be fun.
I also like the idea of b&w.
Personally I am dying to do anther book/song title theme shortly in the level one challenge as we've not done one since Feb 2010 and I know we had awesome participation in the first one we did. That or things that start with the letter D which may be fun also. :)

Another suggestion would be to pretend to be on a photo shoot with Jay Maisel and just wander the streets of your town looking for interesting light, colour and gesture.

Jas's 2 suggestions are great ones and look like they have the most support. Merging posts now. Thx Marko
