Shutter Nirvana - Changes and Announcements

Hello All,

The general complaint has been that the weekly challenges don't give enough time to complete the challenges and any photos being submitted are really counterproductive. We've all got busy lives and I can relate to that. So... we've decided to make a few changes.

Announcment 1

First off the weekly challenges are officially dead. Well I shouldn't say dead, but they are being put aside and we're going to try something new. Instead of doing weekly challenges, let's do Monthly Challenges! Basically this is how it will work.

At the beginning of every month, two challenges will be announced. Each member can decide to do only one challenge or do both. For each challenge each member can submit up to a maximum of two photos.

I.e.

If only one challenge is chosen, a member can submit either one or two photos for that theme.
If both challenges are chosen, a member can submit 2, 3, or 4 photos.

So if a member only wants to get in one photo in by the end of the month then great. If they want to do more then also great.

Each member has until the end of the month to submit their photos via e-mail (nirvana.shutter@gmail.com).

You will be receiving another e-mail shortly for this month's challenges, (I know I'm already a week late)


Announcement 2

We've also decided to open up the site for questions and answers. If you have any question, no matter how silly you think it is (when it comes to cameras even the simplest questions can have complicated answers) go ahead and e-mail your question to nirvana.shutter@gmail.com The question will be posted up on the blog along with the answer for others to see as well as a response will be e-mailed to the original questioner. No names will be posted up and the question will remain anonymous.

We've already had a couple, which you can view at:

So now that the changes have been announced I'll get working on the monthly challenge e-mail.

Happy Shooting!
