Happiness.......in short supply at the moment. Rolling 24hr news brings continual strife to our screens and to our ears. The economy, crime, war, cold war, starvation, Isis, Brexit, North Korea to name but a few.
What or where is your refuge for a minute, an hour, a day .....week.... month, or year. The cosy spot you retreat to with a good book and a cup of tea or glass of.....what? Who do you turn to for good cheer, for a great time. How do you forget the troubles and just immerse yourself in happiness no matter how brief or how long? Where or what is your happiness?
Interpretation is wide open!
The rules:
The challenge will run for 3 weeks, until 25th November at midnight GMT. I have taken the liberty of giving an extra week as happiness is in short supply and we may need to rustle some up. I'll give warning/reminders closer to the date.
1. Either take pictures that match the nominated theme or select some from your portfolio. You must be the photographer that created the images in order to enter it.
2. Only one entry per salon, please. If you want to withdraw an entry and replace it with another, that is OK, but you must make it clear in the post containing your replacement pictures that this is what you've done. You can add or change the title and add to the edit line to let everyone know.
3. The decision of the curator at the end of the challenge is final - don't give him/her a hard time about it: this is just a friendly photo-challenge, after all!
4. The winner will assume the responsibility of curator for the next Salon Challenge, and as soon as possible post a message in a new thread in the SC Photo Challenges forum, with details of the new theme. Don't forget - that opening message must include a copy of these instructions, which also double as the rules.
5. The curator cannot enter his or her own salon
Good hunting!
