September Contest Subject Poll
This discussion thread was locked by Celebration (a host of the Photography group).
In the interest of getting a subject ASAP, I am going to give the group three really great options for the September photo contest theme (okay, I know that two of these are past rejected suggestions of mine):
1. Action shots
2. Fairs, Festivals, and Street Parties (no fireworks, please)
3. Orange
I'll leave this poll up until sometime Saturday morning, maybe about 10am CDT.
I posted a link to this thread in GD, but specifically said it was for people thinking about entering the contest.

Which is really interesting. Imagine filtering the world and inspect it for.............ORANGE. 
Reiterating-- NO UT OR OTHER ORANGE SPORTS RELATED STUFF.
No worry on the sports. 
I have thought about it and I am not going to eliminate flowers as a possible entry. I am going to go out on a limb and just predict that a flower will not win. The only thing I am going to ban as an entry is some sort of football jersey or fans in a football stand wearing orange. NO UT PHOTOS ALLOWED! Texas or Tennessee, or whomever else...........
There are very few orange flowers around here. As it happens some neighbors actually have orange azaleas. Note that, even though I have in my possession an orange azalea photo or two, I did NOT post it as an example of orange. I will accept orange flower photos as entries, and you all will not incur my wrath in submitting same. However, I will be really disappointed if I get more than a couple of orange flower photos. My semi boring orange azalea photo is below.
NO UT ANYTHING!!
Another subject could win, still. I mean, action shots are faves of mine. But I love color contests, because past color contests have changed my brain.
Cal is Blue and Gold. 
I'm useless here
traveling x-country with him 
I am in Michigan tonight and will be in North Carolina looking for contest photos (Democratic National Convention - maybe I can get a good one there?)
There are a lot more where that came from.

Any one of these will do.
Too bad I'm not still working at the prison. Those orange jumpsuits were beautiful.
I was going to pick either action shots or fairs et alia, because I thought orange would be too difficult a subject, but then I'm reading all the comments and thought, hey, orange would be a real challenge for me, and that's why I'm here.
So, orange has my vote and now I'm going to keep my eyes peeled for orange shots!
