POTD 2009 Weekly Theme list

Here is the new weekly themes for 2009!

Remember that anyone can join in at any time.

Don't feel the pressure of having to post something everyday. If you only post once a week or once a month that is fine. It is about getting out there and taking pictures and learning from everyone!

The weekly themes are something fun and if you don't post something of theme it is ok. It is a way to help get those creative juices flowing, and it can be a fun challenge to find something to fit the theme,

Most of us post pictures on our blogs. If you don't have a blog feel free to post in the gallery on 2 peas. If you are interested in setting up a blog visit www.blogger.com ... which is FREE. Or any of the other blog options out there.

Everyday there will be a post started for the days challenge (Usually between 8PM and 10PM EST) and everyone replies on that post as to if they are updated. Then others will go out and look at each others blogs and leave some love.

The way we learn and improve is by asking for CC or HHCC on pictures we take. If you are looking for CC or HHCC let others know. Information about the settings and lens used are always helpful. If possible please post that information too. Also if you ask for CC or HHCC please don't take offense and get mad when someone gives you advice or tips. That is how we learn and grow. People are not being mean, they are just trying to help you improve your skills. If you are not ready for CC then you do not need to ask for it but please keep sharing your pictures!!

Happy and Healthy 2009.
