The Word Challenge for this week is "MESSAGE"!

Rules and guidelines:

1. Photos must be taken during the week of the challenge starting Friday night at Midnight through Friday night at Midnight (please, be honest about when the photo is taken).

2. Use only basic Photoshop techniques to tweak you photo: Color adjustment, sharpening, cropping, straightening. DO NOT submit compilations, multiple images, etc. This is a photographic exercise, not a Photoshop exercise. Emphasize your photographic skills to produce an image.

3. Upload ONLY ONE IMAGE (your very best) from the week starting the Saturday following the Word Challenge! Please watermark your image with your name and the date the image was taken. Add a Comment with the image title, how it was taken, technical details (camera, lens, ISO, etc.)The sooner you upload, the more comments you will receive.

3. Members of our Meetup Group are encouraged to review the photos and make comments. Please limit your comments to constructive critiques, only one comment per image. You can enter comments on multiple images. You do not have to submit photos to enter comments.

4. The winners are based on the number of comments received. The prize is the comments you receive is bragging rights.

Have fun!!
