Three DQs this round, all for being taken before the challenge start date: mrmagoo, zaphora, sdgphoto.

Interesting, only 43 entries this round. It must be the fewest entries I have seen in a challenge round since I joined dgrin. I am not counting the "fair or foul" round since it was going on in parallel with the mega-challenge. It seems like a lot of people had a hard time coming up with an entry that fit the theme of the challenge. It certainly was a tough one, that is for sure.

This was a tough assignment because, unless you cheated like I did and made it a SP, it involved someone else. Harder to arrange a portrait session.

But this is the type of challenge that will broaden everyone's experience and I've enjoyed seeing the efforts.

You've nailed it, at least as far as I was concerned. I had several ideas, but didn't have the subjects to take the picture. So the images remained in my head, perfect and unsullied by reality....

Also, let's face it, it's August. I expect a lot of people are away on holidays TAKING pictures instead of :cry like me :cry sitting here :cry in the heat :cry wishing I had friends with beach houses and reading dgrin numerous times a day .....

Shows that many of us do not have the nerve to approach a stranger. Personally my sweet niece would not give in making her not so sweet. . She is an assistant horse breeder... all I need was her with the horses, but would she give in? Nooooooo
