    Indeed, I tend to not take pictures of people unless asked to do so. That will make it more intriguing though. I am already trying to come up with an idea.

    I feel like I am intruding on their privacy :(

    Even if I they allow me to take pics I find it extremely difficult.

    I have two options for this contest.

    1. Take pics of family members. That's about as far as I can go.

    2. Find a homeless guy, kill him so he don't notice I take the pics of him.

    ;);)

    Sorry Guys about the choice of the theme...

    perhaps we can make it places or faces if that makes it easier for all of us...

    Maranelloboy - would this be okay with you ?

    Cheers, Nick

    I say leave it as is, it just makes it more challenging for those of us who don't usually take many face pics. I think it's great that it does seem to be challenging people.

    I agree. It has already been set. Can't change it now because we are all whining :) I am actually interested in seeing what I can come up with for this.

    I have to agree, I never take pics of people so it will be a nice challenge.

    I just spoke with my cat.

    He says that he doesn't mind having his face posted on the internet. So the theme is fine with me :D ;)

    Oh...correct me if I'm wrong, but I thought the contest was about faces and people. If I am wrong, I appologize and I will try to remove the post.

    Love the prom shot. The background isn't that interesting, to me, but this is such a classic coming of age shot. Portraits with an interesting backdrop. Let's see what people come up with. Good luck GB!

    I see some resemblance in the faces of these two posts, and it's not the pretty girlfriend. ;-)

    Agreed. I think the "background" to this shot is more than just the physical objects behind them, and I'd guess it could evoke some memories for you, er, older folks. :)
