Here we go!
It seems I wrote this post and didn’t hit publish. See, I usually schedule things to go at a certain time, and with the new WordPress setup with blocks and all, I haven’t always done it right.
So, my apologies. Especially seeing as I said I would have this published later in the day to a post in our group!

Anyway, the month is long. For man, it will probably be hot. Hot isn’t fun, at least in my world.
Anyway, I know.. on with the theme! But first … here are those other challenges!
Challenge 1: Tell others about this photo blogging challenge and get some friends to come join us. Let’s see if we can get people interested in the challenge again.
Challenge 2: Make friends with your camera and see what you can come up with. Have fun!
Challenge 3 is at the end of this post (the theme!).
Before this, here’s some housekeeping items. For those who might be new to the challenge, here’s how it works.
- See the theme (first day of the month);
- Take photos throughout the month (don’t use old ones!);
- Select five photos and create a blog post;
- Come back here and link up on the final day of the month;
- Use the official hashtag — #Photoblogchal — on social media posts;
- Hopefully go visit and comment on other blogs.
That’s it. There’s no rules on equipment or anything else. Blog posts can be short and to the point, or in-depth. Interpret the themes as you see fit.
The one big rule?
Have fun!
This month’s theme? Patriotic! This will be very open to interpretation and it doesn’t matter what country you are in — celebrate it! Please make sure your blog post publishes Wednesday, July 31. Then come back here and link up.
If you think you are going to take part in this, drop a comment below so we can see who all might be trying to tackle this challenge!
There is also a Facebook group for those who are interested.
