PBase

I just posted the Weekly Challenge "The Place I Live" for this week, and thought it might also be a fun challenge for the month. 31 unique images of the place we live in the manner of the Japanese Ukiyo-e print series, of which a well known one is Thirty-six Views of Mount Fuji http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/36_Views_of_Mount_Fuji_(Hokusai).

Instead we would have 31 Views of San Diego, or Bamberg, or Dunedin, or Melbourne, or Nashville, etc. I think you get the "picture".

Just a suggestion.

I like this idea, Walter. I'd love to see more of where other pbasers live.

I definitely like it!

Bad Ems instead of Bamberg!

I like it!

I'm happy with this idea.

I love it and I'm in!

I will do this as best I can. First of all, we get two hours of sun a day and then rain. Secondly, I will apply a broader brush of the county I live in. I'm in a rural area and I am not broadcasting where I live on the internet. Sorry. Hopefully, no one will ever figure out where I am by the photos I post. I know that's kind of against the whole idea of the challenge but it will be challenge for me to make my location unrecognizable. :)

I understand your concerns Karen and I share them. I should have emphasized "the AREA I live in" when I posted the idea. I did do this when I posted the challenge, and I used the two Japanese Print series as examples of describing an area by choosing a series of viewpoints.

I should have looked at the link. I really don't have any accessible landmarks that I could do 31 photos of. Even if it wasn't raining all the time. If people are okay with me just taking photos of areas of the county I live in then I'll join. They may even be close ups of things. I live in a rural area where anything interesting is going to be a fairly long drive.

The images need not be landmarks Karen. In fact one of the examples I used "Thity-Six View of Mt. Fuji" is all of the same subject seen from different viewpoints, etc. You could post 31 macros, food shots, waterfalls, trees, cows, etc. or a combination of them. All the images need to be is in you area.

well, I'm late for july, but how about abstract for august? I'm sure someone remember we done it some years back, but the subject is so vast, just gotta add a little twist to it. Anyone having a twist layin around, please submit.
