What is Photo-Scavenger All About?

Everyone is welcome.

The idea is simple: we post a theme every week, and members respond with a photo or two that they feel captures that theme. We hope it will be a great way to share great photos and unique views.

The weekly challenges are tagged by 'year and prompt' so all the prompts for a year - e.g. 2017, can be found by clicking on '2017prompt' in the tags list, so it should be fairly easy to find them and catch up at any time.

January 2022 You might want to set the security of your post to 'members' when you post - it no longer seems possible for us to set this as default for the whole community. If you do know how we can do this please let us know in a comment here - thank you.

The Rules:

  • Our goal is one or two photos per post; but if you do post more than one or two, please be kind and cut. Photo size should not overflow the page :)

  • Posts should be tagged with that week's theme/prompt and with photographer's username. The tag for the prompt will already be in the tags list. Please don't add the 'year prompt' tag mentioned above - it is only to be used by the admin when the prompt itself is posted

  • Only your own photography, please.

  • We want this site to be friendly. Questionable photos will be deleted at moderator's discretion, as will extremely rude or unpleasant comments.

  • Membership will not be accepted for journals that do not have any posts or other signs that they are an active, personal, journal.

    2026 Week No 27 & 28

    ooops, there was a gap as no one took over this month, so I have offered to carry on ... so, sorry, you get stuck with me for a second month running!

    Anyway, as I am going to post 2 together I thought I would do 2 that are similar, but different ... NUMBER & LETTER

    We have done both in the past, but nice to revisit some of these challenges.

    have fun - and sorry for the gap x

    News

    This immediately came to mind. Some of the best news of my lifetime.

    I was traveling in Nicaragua during Obama's first inauguration. The bar I was in gave me my own television in a separate room so I could watch in English. They were all watching in Spanish. Everyone was happy and hopeful. I have never been prouder to be an American.

    2026 Week No 26

    Over the last couple of weeks there has been a lot of information about football. Then we all heard of the disaster in Venezuela and the sad loss of life. Add to that the debate about heatwaves that has certainly been ongoing, especially over here.

    Yes, even without wanting to, we all find out what’s happening around the world now, not just what’s happening next door.

    NEWS is everywhere, but I realised it has never been here! So, let’s think NEWS!

    Good Luck!
