13 things photo essay

lumberjim • Apr 12, 2006 11:05 pm
Jinx saw something like this sometime ago somewhere on the internet. Below is a list of 13 things. (she thinks it was 21 where she saw it....but we thought that might be a bit steep, so we chopped it)

Post a picture that YOU have taken for each word. Either ones you have already taken, or new ones just for this, it matters not. no time limit. no prize for best submission.........unless you think that might make it more interesting. I could 'host' this one, and come up with a prize to the winner. Winner TBD by a poll or a series of polls if there are more than 10 entrants. After the parade and the gloating, someone else could post 13 words and do one of their own. It would gather steam, and grow and grow ...until one day.........

well, whatever, it should be fun to do. here's the list:


1. Funny

2. Reflection

3. Old

4. Big

5. Love

6. Covet

7. Friend

8. Contrast

9. Close

10. Wet

11. Bright

12. Natural

13. Self

Anyone interested?

I'll take this list. I have a freeish weekend coming up.
Beestie • Apr 13, 2006 1:17 am

FallenFairy • Apr 13, 2006 7:37 am
I'm in - I think this will be very cool
Kitsune • Apr 13, 2006 9:14 am
Should we collect all the photos together and then post, or can we throw them in as we get them?
Dagney • Apr 13, 2006 9:19 am
I'll play. Will give me a reason to take my camera to Raleigh this week.

Won't posting all 13 at once make this thread a bit difficult to navigate?

Maybe we need a Flickr Cellar group.

Haha well that one was actually for a "out of place" contest in the Canon Digital Photography Forums. Me and my buddy Jason found an old toilet out back of the dorms and decided it would be a perfect prop!

I wanted to give some bkgnd on the pics, but didn't want to clutter the photo essay. I'd say montage is fair. Certainly, certainly.

So, questions from the audience (viewience?). Anybody? Just step right up.

Yes, that is love, one thread in and endless beautiful tapestry. For one song, each of our threads twined about the other. I forget what barberpole result we produced, but one stripe was "Wha?!" and I'm sure the other was either Glen Miller or The Misfits....
