Title: HAF Photo Challenge: Favourite Buildings
Post by: Recusant on June 22, 2017, 06:34:36 PM
Here we go!  :)  For the new HAF photo challenge, hermes2015 has chosen an excellent theme: your favourite buildings. Of course, this category will be open to a wide interpretation and can include anything from ruins to temporary structures such as circus tents, or anything else that you think may fit and can find some vague justification for.  ;D

Each entrant may submit up to four entries, and entries will be accepted up until Saturday, July 8. Please send your photos via personal message or to my HAF email: recusantathaf |at| gmail.com. If anybody needs help with the technicalities of putting photos on the internet just PM me, and I'll be pleased to assist.

Cool!  Can this be interiors or exteriors?

I can't think of any reason for it to be restricted to one or the other.  8)

do they have to be buildings from our homeland or can it be from a country we visited?

My feeling is that it can be any building you like, regardless of location. Let's hear what Recusant says.

It's your choice. It's your challenge, not the staff's. What do you say?

OK, then in that case let's say that it does not have to be from any particular place and can be interiors or exteriors.

I'm sure you're aware of this but I'll just point this out for more recent members. The only 'rule' for submitting a picture is that you took it yourself. It doesn't have to be taken specifically for the challenge so you can go back through your archives and post from there if you like.

:poke:

Just a friendly reminder that July 8th has come and gone. Time to see the pictures people have submitted and vote! :grin:

(They keep telling me that patience is a virtue, but...yeah. :P )

I had planned to get out and take some pictures for this latest challenge as there were a couple buildings I thought it would be cool to use, but I've been too busy.  >:(

I do have some older pictures in my files I could use, can we extend the deadline for this, or is it too late?

Nothing I feel particularly drawn to in Gloucester, including the cathedral. I like modern and way-out architecture and all my favourites are outside my reach, some well outside!

I've been remiss in not bumping this thread to remind people to submit their photos, so am extending the deadline for another week. Will try to bump it at least a couple of times before the deadline.  :blue smiley:

One last bump. I'll be putting together the poll in the next couple of days. Thanks for your responses!

Again, thank you for handling the Challenge, Recusant.

My pleasure, hermes2015. There has been a minor technical issue, so the posting of the poll will be delayed until early next week. This will also allow procrastinators another chance to actually send in a photo or two. We have some great entries I think, so worth the wait.  :smilenod:
