Click-a-Pic Challenge #19 "Wild Card"

[shutterspeed]

Alright ladies, this week's challenge is gonna be super fun. Miss Mint & I were talking and thought it would be totally awesome to do a wild card challenge. What's a wild card challenge you ask? Well this week's challenge is to look back over the past challenges and pick a challenge that you didn't get a chance to participate in. If you're one of the lucky ones that's participated in all the challenges then just pick one you'd like to do again. The point of the wild card challenge is to do a challenge you didn't get a chance to do the first time around.

Need help remembering previous challenge ideas? Here's the list:

are we allowes to mix and match the challenges? i have 3 i didnt get to do...and well two of them i really want to do!

[BansGran]

hmmmm, this "challenge thing" isn't getting any easier.. hence the "challenge", huh?

I have all but 1 challenge to choose from.... but let me add.. what a great challenge this is... looking forward to seeing everyone's photos

[shutterspeed]

Rhi, you can mix and match all you want. If you wanna do one photo as one past challenge and the other photo as some other challenge ... go right ahead! :)

the whole point was to allow everyone to do ones they'd missed and really wanted to try! :)

BansGran, i look forward to seeing what you come up with! :D

[Scrappie Irene]

Oh, I missed lot's of them! I hope that I find some time to join one of them now.

i only missed the first three challenges... just looked at them.

did you know my husband is a shoe-addict? i get a pair each week - most of them i really hate!!! he is 40 cm taller than me, so he wants to solve that looking-each-other-in-the eyes-without-climbing-on-a-chair-problem by buying high-heels :gah:

but sometimes he buys decent ones - mostly whenever i "asked" him to sell all that other crap... so i have a million pairs of shoes... at least :teehee:

THAT challenge really screames my name, so i think i'll try that!

Here are my entries! The first is my fav pic- this ocean photo is truly one of my favs.
The other is the self portrait- I NEVER take photos of myself and if I do I will not be alone in the pic- so here is the best I can do for self!!!

[shutterspeed]

my apologies for once again forgetting to name a winner for CAP challenge #19. aahhh! with being sick for 10 days and then having to get ready for a wedding and a weekend out of town it's been crazy around here. so sorry.

did everyone like the idea of a wild card challenge, doing challenges you didn't get a chance to participate in? maybe we'll see it again in the future! :)

i know everyone's been sick lately so i appreciate those who've been well enough to participate these days!

and i really enjoyed seeing old challenge ideas being re-used. :)

so this week i'd like to CONGRATULATE:

Glumirk (Megan) "Pumpkins"

great bold color, and the pumpkins even created a bit of a pattern in the photo. :)

Honorable Mentions:

Birgit "Seeing Red"

the limited plane of focus and the bold color made this photo stunning!


once again many great entries this week. i look forward to what you guys do with CAP #20!!

[glumirk]

Woohoo! Thanks! :happydance:

Somehow I missed this post and I just came here curious. Glad I did!

I really liked the wildcard challenge because I was super busy and it gave me a chance to show off photos that I took with the challenges in mind that I didn't get to participate in.
