Self portrait challenge will be back on January 7 2008 - Yes thats right - not till January 7. But get your cameras working over the break - I want to see how you celebrate.
The theme for January will be CELEBRATION - interpret as you will. Have a lovely break - here in Australia I am planning on a beach Christmas - kids going feral - camping, swimming, fishing - BBQ lunch - family - food and lots of long summer days relaxing. What are you going to be doing? How do you celebrate?
You can upload links for only 3 weeks of January - starting from January 7.
hi all. i’m nicole, or nikki c, or sometimes everything girl. i am pleased to be one of the new contributors here at spc. i have been participating for just over a year now and think i have only missed a week or two here or there. i absolutely love the idea that sparked this whole community and enjoy looking at everyone’s photographs each week. i will be picking my friday faves the first week every month and can’t wait to get started. i will be officially beginning next week… but i wanted to share my favorite image from this week. something softened inside of me when i looked at this photo. it’s lovely…
I know, that’s a bit of a cheat (especially since I’m actually not the one who made it). What can I say, I’m a bit of a fan of The Simpsons and I wanted to mark the opening of the movie (which is not bad).
But that’s not why I’m here. Being one of the new authors on the blog, I guess I have to introduce myself. But that could be done, in a way, by linking to my SPC posts or this one. So I’ll just go with the broad strokes: I live in Montreal although I’d prefer to live by a lake; I like words, to the point of studying them, and making a job of them — and liking them still; I couldn’t live without a creative outlet, be it writing or making jewelry, furniture or websites; I’m always curious (sometimes curiouser); and I trow a mean Tarot.
I don’t want to say too much about what I have planned; suffice it to say it’s a segment I call “Sunday Stories,” and it’s a bit of a dare.
Congrats to everyone who participated in the article in Artful Blogging - looks like a great issue - with lots of SPC favourites included as well as those whose pics were featured in the article. Participants whose images were featured in the mag include Jeremy Stockwell, Navylane , the momster, pumkin little, nosumo, Nicole from Sometimes everything girl and intrepid flame. Great pics guys keep up the outstanding work…
So officially this is week five of the July challenge - being a tuesday and all - but so many of you are doing August already that I go totally inspired to do a mixed post.

I just love this image - I can almost feel the mud between my toes - ooh squishy… Definitely an earth image.
congrats also to Ornamental with her own article in the mag. This image is for Patterns and is all about memory and family history.
Love this patterns image by Nosumo.
Jeremy’s patterns.
And congrats also to Misty Mawn who has her own article in the mag as well. This image is for patterns but it could be for elements as well.
Thank you to everyone who responded to the call for more people to contribute. We had a great response and so will be introducing some new and familiar faces over the coming weeks.
if you are interesting in being a contributor to self portrait challenge - either once a month or more often please email me (see contact page) for more information. You need to be a regular self portrait participant and enjoy checking out all the contributions - knowledge of wordpress an advantage.
thanks
Kathreen
PS… aha - I was testing you to see if you could figure out where the email contact is … see those funny little blue and grey buttons on the left that follow you down the page - the email is the middle one…
Also when you send in an email please send in a link to your website with details of your contributions.
thank you
Have archived week 2 of online tools. and found some more tools that you might want to try out.
sorry for the late archive guys and for not archiving last week.
