Articles With Keyword 'potd'

Sorry for the late notice... the category has been open for a few hours, but I forgot to post to the news feed.

This month (It's October already!!!) is Apples OR Oranges. One or the other... Or both if you prefer.

Not PINE-Apples.
Not Orange colored things...

Real Fruits... Apples. Oranges. They don't have to be the main attraction, they can be included in your shot in an interesting way.

Category is open now (still), so get cranking!

The Jacksons
Golden Rings
Little Peppers
Fingers
Guys (yum!)
Boroughs of New York

Good things come in fives and September's POTD category is no different. The number 5 is the theme and we're looking for either the number 5 (not the word) OR five of your subject (not four or six or 300). Find a way to photograph the number or the amount in an interesting way.

Category is open now for submissions. Looking forward to your entries!

Oh yeah. photographyvoice.com will turn five years old in September as well, so that sorta makes the theme relevant. :)

Time to belly up to your subjects for August's POTD category. Or more appropriately, get down on your belly to take their photo. The theme category for the month is for shots taken FROM the ground level. So get down, get dirty, and get an interesting angle.

"All in all, we're just another brick in the wall." - Pink Floyd

"When the walls come tumbling down." - John Mellencamp

"Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall." - Mother Goose

Walls are a part of our daily lives, both physically and emotionally. I would say they are an unsung part of our lives, but as you can see above, that would not be accurate.

Regardless, walls serve many purpose in photography. Leading the eye. Being the backdrop. Hosting the lizard or insect you're more focused on. (Focused, get it?) Include a wall in your shot for June's POTD theme category and remember to make it interesting!

"Mirror, mirror on the wall,
what's the best photo of them all?" ~ Evil Queen

or perhaps...

"Romper Bomper Stomper Boo
Tell me, tell me, tell me do!
Magic mirror, tell me today...
Did all my photographers have fun today?" ~ Miss Sally

Well now's your time to reflect on your POTD entries for May. Using a mirror, water, bald head or other shiny surface, submit photos that show a subject along with it's reflection. All the regular rules apply, you cannot use tools to mirror the image...

Submit your best shots now. The Category is open.

Capturing a subject in motion and conveying that motion is one of the hardest photos to do well. So that is the challenge upon you for April. Your photo should clearly indicate the subject is moving and be an interesting photo. Either the subject is blurred or the background is blurred as you pan the camera. Freeze frames and interesting patterns with the whole scene blurred is not what we're looking for here.

Think it over and take your best shot. Category is open now for submissions.

February is right around the corner and of course LOVE will be in the air with Valentines Day on the 14th. So to celebrate love, our POTD category for February is Hearts!

Tons of photo ops for this one are out there. We've seen them so many times already, so you gotta be creative to score a POTD in this category.

Category is open now for submissions.

Everyone is just gonna LOVE your shot!

Wow... I toyed with not having a theme category for January and got bombarded with emails requesting one... so here you go.

For January, look around to find letters (A-Z) or in another language (maybe?) in nature or in the world -- without using any actual letters. So taking a photo of a sign does not count. But taking a photo of a tree that looks like the letter V or Y would count. Or anything else that looks like, resembles, or clearly hints at a letter.

Have fun!

"Oh what fun it is to get, a POTD today!"

It's December and we need a new POTD theme... whatever could it be? What did we do in 2009? 2008? 2007? Even 2006? WOW!

To steal from Sidney Poitier and Bill Cosby: Let's Do It Again!

CHRISTMAS!!!

Once again our December theme is Christmas, only this time it will be different. Unlike last year, this theme will be about Christmas 2010 instead of 2009.

So set up your tree, wrap your gifts, and hang your ornaments. And take a few photos along the way!
