OK, the experts tell us that we get better results if we get into the water knowing what we are going to try and capture.

So,

How about a photographic challenge every month? The idea is just to showcase your photos in reponse to a given monthly theme - this isn't a competition, there is nothing to win here (as Terry Pratchett would say; the reward is knowing that you can do it) - it's just another opportunity to get in the water, show off and learn.

Now ideally, once the challenge is set, we'd all be grabbing our camera gear and heading off for the our nearest water. So, lets do it!

A new challenge will be thrown up before the first of each month.

I'll start a new thread so we can show our images there.

Also, any suggestions for the challenge will be happily received.

Tim

Well, Tim suggested anemones in the "old" forum - maybe we should just go with that?

I'm up for anything, as long as it lives in norwegian waters as well

What about something that should be guranteed in all forum users waters. GREEN water. Something that shows the nice ambience of green water photography?
Of course marine life included would be an added plus, or indeed anything-divers,terrain,sun beams - yes it is a very open one But must be nice green balance.
my 2cents suggestion.
