PROJECT 52-11-62-(Supplementary) RANDOM SUBJECT - Paper
Posted By: noelcmn, 11-13-2023, 10:40 AM

Welcome to the 11th edition of Project 52. I have participated in a few Project 52 kind of thing and there are plenty out there. One of the many aspects that have come to the fore is the value of participating, one of them being how much you learn-about technique, out of the box thinking, getting to know your camera's potential and a host of other values. WHY NOT JOIN THE PROJECT! Besides some discipline, there is not much else required except if you are chosen the winner, in which case you judge the next weeks challenge.

Themes covered will include but not limited to:
Colour
Architecture
DOF
Focus
Exposure
Landscape
Lighting
Perspective
Shutter
Subject- Multi-subject challenge
People
Ideas
Shapes
Home
Animals
Seasonal
Leisure

Rules
1. Anyone and everyone interested in the challenge is eligible. The goal continues to be to have fun and share comments, concepts, insights, and techniques
with fellow Pentaxians.
2. Each week will feature a Theme and Sub-concept for you to explore. The theme/sub-concepts are chosen by the facilitator every week. You are only
required to submit a photo taken during the week of the challenge.
3. Post your single picture in Project 52-11 thread for the week. Explain what motivated you to take the picture and/or how you feel it represents the weekly
theme.
4. Some post-processing is OK (adjusting white balance, exposure, color saturation), but let's try to stay away from heavily PP'ed images here. Try to
keep the creativity to photographic techniques and the captures themselves.
5. Since this project is about technique, and not camera, shots taken by non Pentax cameras are allowed. Cameras may be SLRs, DSLRs, Point & Shoot,
Medium Format, et cetera. And we will include images taken with phones as well.
6. There is one “Theme Concept” labeled “black and white,” but feel free to post black and white, sepia, monotone, etc., for any of the other themes.
7. The picture you post should be taken during the week in which the theme is active to be eligible for judging. It is up to the discretion of the current week's
Judge to accept or decline early/late entries i.e. a day earlier or a day late. Usually there is some flexibility here to allow as many entrants as possible. BUT
PLEASE DO NOT POST IMAGES TAKEN DAYS OR WEEKS OUTSIDE THE PERIOD OF THE CHALLENGE. TRY TO KEEP IT AS CLOSE AS POSSIBLE
TO THE TIME FRAME. SOME FLEXIBILITY IS ALLOWED (after all life comes before photography) FOR OUT OF DATE/LATE SUBMISSIONS.
8. Additional images are welcome, but please keep them to a minimum. If more than one image is posted, make sure you identify your entry for the challenge.
Additional images should also please comply with rule 1 and rule 7.
9. Any picture taken from thread start date to listed closing date is acceptable. By default, attached photos will be shown below your message

10. The WINNER of each weekly challenge is the JUDGE of the next weeks Project 52-11 and may not participate in the current challenge.
11. The host/facilitator (in this case noelcmn) may participate in the challenge, provided he/she is not the judge.

This is a supplementary contest, or "unofficial" Project 52-11 challenge, seeing that we have reached Week 52 of Project 52-11. This will run until the end of December 2023, to enable Project 52-12 to commence at the beginning of 2024. These supplementary challenged will include various themes, sub-themes and/or random subjects.
As usual, Project 52 is presented as a challenge to learn, develop and challenge yourself in your photography skills. It will folllow the usual format as far as Judging, time frames etc. Your participation is much appreciated.

And penultimate challenge of random subjects of materials that form so much a part of our daily lives, this week it is paper. An easy sounding challenge, but can prove difficult. For this challenge, we will accept any form of paper, including books/magazines/newspaper, cardboard, Paper cups, and of course any paper that is used in the paper craft art field. Google Paper craft for a list of these at Wikipedia. Le't see your creative juices flowing for this one!

Excellent ideas and help here: How to Take Awesome Abstract Photos Using Colored Paper

Not quite in line, but some good ideas to get creative with paper- here it is photographic paper, but I am sure normal A4 paper sheets can do just as good a job. https://ohcreativeday.com/6-photo-paper-art-ideas/

Good stuff here: Photographing folded paper ? A Year With My Camera

THE CHALLENGE RUNS FROM 13-19 NOVEMBER 2023 AND CLOSES AT MIDNIGHT IN YOUR TIME ZONE ON THE LAST DAY OF THE CHALLENGE

And still hoping for a facilitator/host for PROJECT 52-12 for 2024!

Examples from my collection- The first is egg trays

Even though I am the Judge for this weeks challenge, I tried to find something- abstraction of stained examination pad.

Challenge closed, and since we only have 1 entry (mine is disqualified as I am the Judge) that leave Don (djb47 and thanks for entering) as the winner and judge of the next projects 52 challenge. It can be found here: PROJECT 52-11-63(Supplemetary) RANDOM SUBJECT - TECHNOLOGY - PentaxForums.com
