Hi.. Hopefully I am talking to a few of my friends and some of the lovely BFF Blog Friends Forever that I have been doing a picture / blog challenge with for pretty much the last 2 years... firstly at 365+1 in 2012 and last year over at Lucky Snapping in 2013 here
Jen, Anne, Lynne and myself, along with a few of you on guest host duties ran monthly prompts throughout 2013 and despite a few lulls here and there, and some super rescue jobs done mainly by Anne, we have reached the end of 2013.
With much less pre-planning than Jen gave the 2013 challenge last year I thought it might be nice to carry on keeping in touch this year and hopefully add a few new faces and stories.
My idea was that we like to keep in touch weekly at least but not always with lots of wordy thought provoking stuff.. I myself fell by the wayside at some points but found doing a 'December Daily' picture recharged my enthusiasm.
So this is my plan:
A weekly theme for a single picture that week..e.g. colours
giving at the start of the week an option of a daily picture within the theme..e.g. blue/red / yellow etc
so it suits everyone to add a picture and words if they wish, once or more a week.
I will aim to post an entry to be uploaded on a Monday...and if possible I shall schedule a week or two in advance so I don't get behind. Several of you have offered to get involved with prompts so once under-way maybe you can have a think of some ideas and email them to me at.............. kathijo at hotmail dot co dot uk..... (hoping the spammers won't get me there!)
I will make it a short week to start, so let me know what you think in comments below and look out for Week 1 on Wednesday!
PS New blog was easiest way .. I will tweak colours tomorrow from my easy peasy PC!
I'd love to try and take part again. I need to get back into my photography and keeping in touch with everyone from the 365 days!
ReplyDeleteExcellent Kim, I will try to keep it brief and not too taxing..
DeleteWill be playing along too :-)

DeleteGood to see Kim and Jo back hee, missed them both!!
ReplyDeleteam going to continue blogging so may as well try to join in with this...having said no more challenges for me. Joining in as I really don't want to lose touch :)
I feel the same Lynne .. We will try and keep it relaxed and as there is an option to do daily or weekly and not be too wordy all the time. . Xx
DeleteI certainly don't want to lose contact with you all, so will do my best to be around as much as possible. xx
ReplyDeleteThanks Anne x
DeleteI am so happy that we can carry on - I don't mind if it's simple or more challenging, but it has become a huge part of my everyday life. I'd be glad to help but I have to come up with some ideas. Thank you KathiJo.
ReplyDeleteThanks Kristina, I tried to reply yesterday but my phone does not always let me! Happy that you are staying with us K x
Deletecan i join in please, i set up a new blog for a fresh start in 2014. I have missed you all .
ReplyDeleteHi Michelle..happy to have you .. and hopefully if we have a weekly theme with extra words for daily posting we don't feel too bad if we miss a few.. xx I have missed seeing your family news too x
DeleteOh now this challenge sounds much more like our "old" format :) ill be back too.. even though i am running a 365 challenge as well!! itll be lovely to catch up with all the 365+1 ers from 2012... sorry but i just didnt "feel" the 2013 one
ReplyDeleteHi Nicky.. I didn't realise that I knew you from 365+1 when we were in touch on Fbk, as on blog you had another name I think! Thanks for coming back.. i shall look at yours too.. K x
DeleteHi it will be great to'see' you Nicky and Michelle good to have you back, I too have missed your family news!!
ReplyDeleteI also like the idea of starting on a Wednesday too for the week!!
Happy New Year for tonight enjoy what ever you do xxxxxx
Lynne..I think I will only do a Wednesday start tomorrow as it is easier to see Monday as the start of the week and if I get pushed for time I can usually slot something in on a Sunday for the next day! Great if we can get a good crew to start..xx
DeleteFine any day thanks, will help you out when you need a week off OK?
DeleteI also feel the blogging has become part of my life and I would hate to stop keeping in contact with you all and seeing all your news. It will be good to see Michelle and Nicky again. I'm certainly going to carry on
ReplyDeleteThanks Viv.. see you tomorrow! k x
DeleteI'd like to join in with this please. I followed the 2013 challenge on Karen's blog with interest but personal circumstances meant I was unable to take part.
ReplyDeleteWelcome Eileen great to see you joining in for 2014 xxx
DeleteYep.. great to have you on board x
DeleteCount me in. xxx
ReplyDeleteahh Karen, you are always on my mental list of 'ins' xx
DeleteI miss everyone already so I will try and keep checking in with everyone :-)
ReplyDeleteGreat to see some familiar faces from 365+1 and that they like the sound of this!
It certainly is a nice straightforward challenge Kathi, I overthought it last year. xxx
I think we needed to have the thoughtful ones as it got us to know each other better.. and your View challenge was great, simple.. and i think we should have an element of a view this year..maybe each season.. thanks Jen x
