Some really inspiring work there. Almost better than the images themselves is to read the thought process behind them - lots to think about. Thanks guys.

A really great collaboration and some very inventive uses of the term. I'm disappointed to have been unable to contribute but, in retrospect, I don't think I could have produced anything as good - and certainly not better..!!

A few things made me laugh with this collaboration. It was the first time that just reading the title told me exactly what I wanted to shoot and how I wanted to do it! Also, when I was writing the short description, I had to stop myself in order to keep it a normal length. I was definitely on my way to writing a novel sized dissertation on the subject! Besides, I gave me a reason to finish-up the roll I had stuck in the half frame for so long! Like Ed once said, I was starting to think the film was on some sort of conveyer belt where you expose it over and over until the end of time :)

Great work one and all.

Diane's has to be gold medal winner this time round - really made me smile.

There were a few that I didn't quite get, and Sandeha ... is yours a photo of a poster or something?  Are you going all Richard Prince on us?

Outstanding work by all.

My stand out shots were from, Diane, François, Ian, Leon, Peter and Sean.

I know that's half of them, but, I did say they were outstanding!

A stunning set and I'm not even going to begin to try to pick a favourite. Cracking work everyone!

It's fun to see I'm not the only one who had a specific song in his head while thinking about what to do.
Mine was Subdivisions by Rush.

Well spotted, Matt!! Yep, that's the playground in Higher Crackington just behind the Crackington Institute. Cold and windy due to having been located on an exposed hillside, but with a fairly tasty zip slide. There's a lovely 30 minute walk from there down to the beach which follows the stream through the woods.

Twas a poster, yes.

There's one I didn't get either.  But since I can hardly take my eyes off it, it really don't matter.   :D  ;)

It was a really interesting theme to think about and gave plenty of food for thought.  I like all of the shots very much for different reasons...how nice that we are such a non-comformist bunch ;-)

here's mine that I took for this but didn't get round to develop in time:
