About Talk Photography's Photo52 2012

If you're looking for a challenge for next year but don't want to commit to a photo a day, the Photo52 is a great way to challenge yourself and inspire you to pick up your camera at least once a week. Everyone who has taken part in previous years has learnt a phenomenal amount by doing this and I hope that everyone taking part this year continues to get a lot out of it.

For those that aren't aware of Photo52, here's an introduction :

In its simplest form, every Saturday a theme is pulled at random from a bag and is posted in this thread. During the following week everyone taking part posts a photo of their interpretation of the theme in their own special 52 thread in the Projects, Personal Challenges and Themes section. There is no competition element to this, you simply shoot for your own enjoyment, progression and sense of achievement.

Theres only two rules: Try to stick to theme as much as possible, and only post ONE photo per theme.

INSTRUCTIONS

1) Wait for the theme to be announced. We'll update the discussion thread to announce when each week has been selected.
2) Think about the theme and how you want to photograph it.
3) Take your Photo.
4) Create your own special thread for your own 52 in the The Projects, Personal Challenges and Themes section (that's under General Photo Sharing) On the TP Website
5) Share your photo and your reasons for taking it plus if you feel like it, share what you learned this week. Dont forget to share it on here on Flickr
6) Take a look at some of the other 52s and post a few comments to encourage your fellow 52ers.
7) Wait for the next theme to be announced.
8) Repeat steps 2, 3, 5, 6 and 7 until the end of the year.
