For this swap you will take one photo every day for one month (31 days). I will give you an extra week in case you miss a day.
What you photograph is up to you. It can be anything (as long as it does not have nudity or vulgar language - keep it clean please).
Print these out on photo paper OR have them printed out (most places will do digital photo prints for around 10 cents per print). The minimum size is 4x6 but you may send larger prints if you want.
You can send these loose, put them in a book, or put them in an album. It is up to you how crafty you get with this.
On the back of each photo OR on the book page of each photo, write a caption for the photo. This could be a simple description of the subject of your photo ("My cat") or it could be something more unique.
Put a date on each photo - some cameras have a setting that will show the date on the front of the photo, but for those of us who do not have that feature or don't like to use it, you may just write it on the back or on the book page along with your caption. Unless you print these photos out each day, you will need to remember when each photo was taken, so be sure you write it down somewhere so you will know.
You do not have to be a professional photographer to do this! Please do not rate down if you do not like your partner's photos. This is just to see different photos from around the country, not to showcase how talented we are. A lot of people have to use the "Auto" settings! LOL
You may use a program to remove red eye, remove "noise" from a digital camera, or otherwise "fix" your photo, but do not "Photoshop" it - as in, do not change the photo itself other than "touch ups".
This is my first swap like this, so please ask questions if I have left anything out.
Requirements
- Newbies welcome with a fully filled out profile.
- No recent 1's or 3's (last three months).
- No unexplained 1's or 3's, either have the explanation on your profile/rating response or message me about it.
- Ratings of 4.8 and higher only.
If anyone is flaked on, I will angel this.
F.A.Q
- Can I add text to my photo - for example, adding a stanza from a poem that the photo reminded me of?
Yes! The only thing I didn't want people to do was to alter their photo in a program like Photoshop, and completely change the look of the photo. For example, playing with colors or adding elements that aren't originally there. Some text, fixing red eye, reducing "noise", etc is all fine.
