so i was out taking pictures today in my home town and i got this great idea for a new style of battle. what's that you ask? a photo scavenger hunt.


 


we should compile a list of things/emotions/etc. to take pics of, print them off and spend some time trying to find these things and post them on the net.


 


just give me some ideas on whether this is something you guys and gals would like to do

I went on a massive photo scavenger hunt in the city once, organized by my scholarship program. Unfortunately, to level the playing field, each team had the same crappy disposable camera, so our creativity did not get the "exposure" it deserved and we kind of lost "focus."


 


Don't have all the items be regular things like fire hydrants or buildings, have open-ended clues or sayings that can be interpreted. For our hunt, one of the clues was "How did you all fit in there?" which is a bit obvious, so we all piled into this taxi cab booth thing. The lighting and picture sucked, so you couldn't see us in there at all, but you did get to see the police officer walking over to kick us out and yell at us. Other sayings were like "Only in New York," "Tasty," "Naptime," or "Circles!"


 


Also, it may be best if we get a group of unbiased judges who aren't participating to rank the pictures and actually have a winner. That just makes it a bit more interesting.

I can judge if you want. I like taking pictures and have a decent digiital camera, but I'm lazy as fuck. I can try to make up a clue list if you want.

This would be cool, I dont have artistic ability with photography but finding the things would be fun for reals. Count me in.
