Capture This Month In A Photo will be a ongoing swap each month.
The theme subject is January.
For this swap you will photograph something that symbolizes the month. Some symbols for this month: January's birthstone is garnet, color deep red, January's birth flower is the carnation or snowdrop, The Chinese floral emblem of January is the plum blossom, The Japanese floral emblem of January is the camellia, January is National Soup Month and National Poverty Awareness Month in the United States, along with the numerous celebrations / holidays worldwide. The subject theme is vast and the interpretation is open to the sender.
Please send a short note with your photograph as to the reason you choose the photo to represent January.
You will have three swap partners that you will email one photograph to in .jpg format. Please be sure to attach your photograph to your email. Sometimes if the photograph is just inserted into the body of the email, not everyone will be able to view it in this manner.
You are free to email more than one photograph if you wish but only one is required.
All photographs sent must be photographed by you.
Older photographs may be used if neccesary.
You may alter your photo if you wish. (i.e., photoshop, PSP, etc.)
Your photo may be in black and white or in color. It is sender's choice.
Please do not send links to online albums or blogs for your partners to view your photograph. Your photo MUST be attached in your email.
If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me or ask in the comments below. I will come back and check often!
