12 hours 12 topics 12 frames.

Completed my third Photomarathon yesterday and once again it was gruelling fun.

Topics were
My Entry Number/Colourful
Contained
Roll with it
Chip
Age
Crunch
Black and White
Social Network
Spillage
Missing
Dressed to Impress
Winner.


If one comes up in your town I'd recommended it we had around 400 participants here in Cardiff. Exhibition of entries from 25th July at the Old Library in the Hayes.

I agree with Yammerman, photomarathons are very funny and stimulating; I joined a photomarathon in Pisa last year and this year:
It has been also a little bit challenging since, this year, we had:
12 hours
4 topics (revealed 1 each 3 hours)
1 roll (36 exp)
the topics were (try to traslate from italian):
"and yet it moves" (a quote from Galileo Galilei)
"twilight lights"
"in-significant details"
"luogo comune" an italian way of saying fot both "clichè" and "common/public place"
all the partecipants must then provide a print for each topic and the 4th of july there'll be an exhibit with all those photos...

As Yammerman I recommend to join one if possible, photomarathon are funny and stimulating.
