Photo Blogging Challenge: March 2015’s theme is …

It’s still cold where I am.

But with that winter theme out of the way, it’s time to start looking forward — and hoping for — better weather.

This month is so much bigger than that, at least with the Photo Blogging Challenge.

We turn two!

Never in my wildest dreams would I have thought that was possible. Two years. We’ve had some good participation (who has done every month of this challenge so far?) and in recent months are starting to see some growth.

Let’s hope that continues.

For now, we start our third year of the challenge and I am excited to keep it going. So, are you all ready? Let’s keep it going and growing!

The theme is below. But before we get to that … let me remind you of some important items:

• I set up a Facebook group for those who are interested. Reminders and maybe some discussions or other things can be done there.
• If you haven’t already, attempt to check out everybody’s posts and consider commenting. These challenges are great for personal growth, but it’s also nice to be interactive with all the others in the challenge! That’s one of the best parts of this challenge — interacting and seeing other people’s work!

Before we hit up this month’s theme, for new people, allow me to refresh the rules a bit.

Here’s how it will work.

• On the first of each month (or close to it), I’ll have a blog post here with the theme for the month.
• Over the course of the month, participants will take photos with their interpretation of the theme. On the last day of the month (or close to it), participants should  publish their blog post, which will include five photos from the month. (please don’t recycle photos from the past … the idea is to hopefully challenge you to go out and take new photos each month to interpret the theme). And please only use photos you took.
  
• I’ll have a link-up thing at the end of my post so people can come and post the links to their posts so, hopefully, everybody can go go check out and comment on other posts.

There is no rule on equipment or anything. Use a cell phone. Use film. Use a point-and-shoot. Use a DSLR. It doesn’t matter. Just make sure you publish your blog post on the last day of each month, come here and link up.

It’s simple!

Your blog posts can be as simple or as in-depth as you want. I’ll likely talk a little about each photo. But if all you want to do is post photos, feel free. The idea of this is to give a small challenge and give everybody a chance to express themselves with photography, participate in a challenge and have something to blog about.

That’s it. Easy, right? So join in! Help us continue to grow this challenge by telling fellow bloggers/photographers about the challenge and hopefully it can become a great monthly thing!

For those still with me, this month’s theme is: Two I’ll be excited to see what people can come up with. This won’t be an easy one, that’s for sure. But work it out and hopefully it will be a fun one!

Let’s see what you have for this one! And let’s see if we can get some others interested in joining us! Pass along the word!

Please make sure your blog post publishes Tuesday, March 31. Then come back here and link up.
