I love this idea. a la izquierda Sep 2012 #14

Good idea, and welcome to the photography forum. alfredo Sep 2012 #22

How about fire? RC Sep 2012 #3

Fire - it's elemental! bluedigger Sep 2012 #5

Action shots! Celebration Sep 2012 #4

How about action shots of something on fire within 100 paces of you residence?? MichaelSoE Sep 2012 #8

What could go wrong? bluedigger Sep 2012 #10

100 paces from my home, I don't think so nadinbrzezinski Sep 2012 #29

no ideas... handmade34 Sep 2012 #6

Orange would be good. bluedigger Sep 2012 #12

Well, it's the month of halloween so how about "costumed?" Whovian Sep 2012 #9

Probably better for a November contest. bluedigger Sep 2012 #11

OOOHHHH COMICON nadinbrzezinski Sep 2012 #30

I kinda like the Callalily Sep 2012 #13

Shadows Whoa_Nelly Sep 2012 #15

How funny, Mira Sep 2012 #19

yes, that day was in my thoughts handmade34 Sep 2012 #23

That would be good. alfredo Sep 2012 #21

"Action shots in a cemetery"? bluedigger Sep 2012 #24

Forget my suggestion for 100 paces - cemetery good MichaelSoE Sep 2012 #31

Everybody will be looking for fall color. So "Change" might be good, or throw a curve and alfredo Sep 2012 #20

I'm all for free expression, but "change" is a little too abstract. bluedigger Sep 2012 #25

Change is rather broad. alfredo Sep 2012 #26

"waiting for a good day to hit the cemetery" bluedigger Sep 2012 #27

I guess any day you can leave is a good day. alfredo Sep 2012 #28

Reminded me of a bad joke my father used to quip to us as kids as we would drive by one. MichaelSoE Sep 2012 #32

I used to love the old family graveyards in my town. They were wonderfully spooky. alfredo Sep 2012 #33

With the fall colors being the easy route for us, Black and White would be a perfect choice. alfredo Sep 2012 #34

how about framed rdking647 Sep 2012 #35

That sounds interesting. bluedigger Sep 2012 #36

How about "Recreate a famous painting"? as inspired by this post: Speck Tater Sep 2012 #37

It looks like a fun exercise. bluedigger Sep 2012 #38

I don't know. There are a lot of famous still life's Speck Tater Sep 2012 #41

It might be fun to couple theme with "assignment" to request that the shots be taken this October. Whovian Sep 2012 #39

I think we do that sometimes. bluedigger Sep 2012 #40

Pairs. JohnnyRingo Sep 2012 #42

That's interesting. bluedigger Sep 2012 #44

If I were you, Bluedigger, Mira Sep 2012 #43

I'm counting on you to make a submission, friend. bluedigger Sep 2012 #45
