Description:

I know all of us love cameras! Maybe not being IN the picture but atleast love taking them!

In this swap, you will have 3 partners; you can either buy a disposable camera or already have a digital camera. This swap can be done through email if you are using a digital camera; if you are using a disposable camera, your pictures have to be sent by snail-mail.

You will be taking 15-20 photos, it is your choice in numbers on this part but NO more than 20 and NO less then 15,(since most disposables take 15).

These photos will be things you see everyday; the things you never stop to notice when you are driving/walking to work, the people you see everyday (with their permission of course), the things you do every day, and the simple things you would have never really thought would make a good picture.

Now, don't use only one setting for the color, lighting, and all that with all your pictures! Make them exciting, make it so each picture tells a story... speaking of stories -- each picture MUST have a summary of 4-8 paragraphs stating:

  • What/Who it is~
  • Where it is~
  • When you took it~
  • What this picture would say if it could talk~
  • What do you interpret from it~
  • Why you took it~

and anything else you think is important about the particular picture...

Look at it this way, you are a photographer, you have been assigned by your boss (Swap-Bot) to take 20 photos of natural, origanal, normally unoticed things you see everyday. Lose yourself and have fun! Make it look professional please.

Now... for the ratings if you get 15-20 photos, please an easy rating of 5.0, don't give bad ratings because you don't like what they took a picture of. If your partners send you pictures that you like, go ahead and give them hearts and stars, no demerits on this swap :-P make everyone smile with pretty photos please, and give over the top ratings for awsome photos!

Your photo requiements is you must have at least:

  • 1 Road Sign
  • 1 Weather/Sky
  • 1 Day
  • 1 Night
  • 1 Person/Pet
  • 1 Of YOURSELF
  • 1 Water &/or Water Related

and do not copywrite from the internet, I will be comparing all the photos to google, ask, and every other search engine photos to make sure no one decided to take the easy way... So please, be responcible with your camera.

.:Be warned, no VULGAR nudity may be promitted or tolerated in this photo swap. Must be modern, clean-cut, nicely-done, mature photos... And I'm sure most people don't want naked photos in their mail box, so if you have any ideas, ask your partners permission if they mind. :.

Have fun! And start saying 'Cheese!'

Hi Lilly, Did you really only mean to give people 4 days between signing up and sending out? I was going to join this swap, but taking 20 really good photos, each with 6 paragraphs describing them, sounds like quite a lot of work to me...

I'd definitely join, too, if you'd allow more time. :)
