Favorite “B & W” Photo Hunt Entry

I love how Black and white photography can completely transform the mood of a photo!  It is not often enough that I convert my photos to b&w and I thought maybe I am not the only one who forgets about this technique? Seemed like it would be a perfect item on the PH#3 list and it was! There were so many wonderful b&w photos in this collection, I might just have to make it a permanent item on future Photo Hunt Challenges.  Would you like that? Anyway, look through this fabulous collection…. each photo is linked to the photographer’s gallery and there is a poll at the bottom of this post for you to vote for your favorite.

Favorite “Symbol” Photo Hunt Entries

There were a wide variety of photos in the “Symbol” category…..  it seems this was an interesting category to interpret! As it turns out, there were only a few photos that really stood out so I didn’t pick as many favorites for this category.  A poll to vote for your favorite is at the bottom of this post.

Favorite “Fountain” Photo Hunt Entries

Here we go with the very first round of favorites from PH#3…..

We had so many great fountain photos in the group, I nearly had to post them all! Each photo # is a link to the photographer’s gallery, but otherwise I like to keep each photo anonymous for the sake of voting.  The poll is at the bottom of this post, so please vote for your favorite.  Feel free to send others this way to check out all the amazing photography.  You need not have participated in the photo hunt to browse and vote

It is preferred that you take your photos between today and August 31st.  If for some reason you are stuck on the 31st without a few of the items on your list, then you can use a maximum of two photos from your archives, as long as they were taken less than one year ago.

It is up to you whether you post your photos on your blog as you go, or wait until  August 31st to unveil them and make it a surprise.  One thing I ask is that everyone who participates posts all 25 photos in one single post on their blogs or in a set in an online gallery by August 31st.

A new post will go up here at photohuntchallenges.com on September 1st. I will be using the Mr. Linky auto-link widget.  Anyone who completes the Photo Hunt will need to add their name & the permalink of where their Photo Hunt photos are posted.  Everyone who adds their name to the auto-link will have their photos considered for my Favorites.   After I go through all of the participants’ entries, I will post my favorite photos for each of the 2o items on the list in a separate blog post with a poll for each.  Please note that I will not include archived photos in my favorites (it hardly seems fair!)  Anyone who votes is encouraged to vote based on their favorite photo, not just for a particular photographer. Voting is also open to anyone and everyone.

If you would like to participate, please sign-up by adding your name and blog url to the Mr. Linky widget below.  If you would like to recruit others for the photohuntchallenges.com Photo Hunt or announce your participation, please feel free to post the above badge on your blogs and remember to link back to this post.  Here is a badge that you can permanently add to the sidebars of your blogs if you so choose (I have had several requests for a sidebar badge.  You might need to resize the badge to fit within your template).

Happy Hunting, I look forward to seeing everyone’s photos at the end of the month!

ETA: You ARE allowed to use Photoshop or other photo-editing software as you’d like (it often adds to the artistic quality of the photo)
