Man, its the middle of summer here in Australia, also I don't think Miami will have snow either!

whatever you pick E90 is fine... I'd just say maybe we could take a break from the nature shots for a while

Get creative, try to think of something very different than what we've done in the past.

BMW F22 · 03-05-2009, 05:06 PM

Okay I narrowed it down to "Serenity" and "Simplicity". Serenity would be a picture of anything, anyone, or any place that makes you feel calm/at peace/etc. (hopefully no one posts pictures of a cemetery). Simplicity would be pictures of simple things. Basically as long as the picture isn't too busy (too many things in it or too many lines) then it's good. Please go to the following link to see what I'm talking about- http://www.betterphoto.com/gallery/d...asp?catID=8161.

Edit: perhaps "macro" would also be a good theme. Let me know which 2 you guys like best and I'll pick one.

Yeah that's exactly what I was thinking too. That's why I'm not so keen on "nature's gifts". Perhaps Macro would also be a good theme.

I like the first two ideas a lot.

Macro is meh. Long exposure would be a better theme than that.

UdubBadger · 03-05-2009, 05:31 PM

those will all work though instead of macro i'd rather see something like "details" or "close up's"
