#3 February Photography Challenge

Hope everyone is off to a great start.  Who knew that a prompt for yesterday's "Warm" would bring such nice weather.  Let's see if we can keep it going with todays C&J Photography Challenge!   

I am so glad we put this challenge together.  Even though we put together these challenges for the month for you, it is a complete other thing to actually follow through with the challenges.  I know it's only the 3rd day, but what a refreshing experience this is so far on a personal level.  It's nice to break out of the mold of day to day thinking to think of new ways that these simple words inspire me in my own work.  I hope everyone out there is feeling the same way.  Let us know your inspirations and how it's going for you.

If you missed any of the days in our C&J Photography Challenge, you can join in and add to the correct day at any point either through our "Blog" on our website http://www.cjphotographyllc.com and click on the "Blog" tab to find the individual posts for each day or on our Facebook page:  www.facebook.com/CJphotography.OH or even via tagging us and using hashtag #cjphotochallenge1 on Instagram. So don't hesitate to join in, even if you missed day one.  You can access the full challenge list by clicking

February 3rd:  "Color"



The prompt for the day is "Color".  What comes to mind for you when you think of the word "Color"?  We would love to see that applied in your photography.  There are really no boundaries for this challenge so get as simple or creative as you like.  You can take these prompts as literal, abstract, or creatively as heart desires.  There are no right and wrongs in art, just personal growth and meanings.  We would love to see a huge variety of interpretations from everyone.  You can use you cameras, phones, devices, etc.  Feel free to use straight out of camera photos, edits, filters, or compositions.  Where ever your creative mind takes you, we would love to see and share in your journey this month.

For me, my own inspiration definitely came from Wizard of Oz when I though of the word "Color". There was no greater movie example of introducing such bold color in a formerly black and white world than Wizard of Oz.  Being that this was a movie on repeat , especially for my oldest growing up, and even an experience that was not to be missed once a year for me growing up, how could I not use it for my inspiration.

So what inspires you?  This could be so many different things and so many different meanings to different people.  Share yours with us, we would love to see and hear it! 

You can post your images to our blog under comments or to our facebook page:  www.facebook.com/CJphotography.OH under the individual posts for each day/category.  You can also post on instagram and tag us @cjphotographyllc, so we can see your creative works.  Hashtag your photos: #cjphotochallenge1 so everyone can find them.  Don't forget to "Like" and "Follow" our pages so you can see all of the updates.  This is all about encouraging others, having fun, and growing our skills.  Feel free to show your appreciation to others works by leaving nice comments for them.
