a photo challenge inspired by the new year: "resolution"
this challenge is inspired by the recent new year celebration
and all of the meaning that we associate with such an occasion.
"resolution" is a word that carries a lot of power
and has significance in the world of photography.
interpret the theme as you wish and
make beautiful images that illustrate your concepts!
this competition is open to photographers of all levels
using all manner of photographic media...
feel free to use film, digital slrs, alternative processes, camera phones and photo editing software!
have fun exploring your resolution!
