DWF Photo Challenge

1 camera, 1 lens, 90 minutes, Seattle Washington. Are you up for the challenge?

Hey photographers are you up for a challenge? Members of the Digital Wedding Forum are hosting a special photography challenge on February 18th at 1:30 PM in Seattle Washington and all are invited.

Here’s the deal, show up with $10, one slr camera, and a fixed (prime) 50 mm lens* and take the best darn pictures you can in 90 minutes. You can not drive or use flash during the shoot.

If you think you can live without your precious auto everything flash and zoom for 90 minutes and still make great images then I suggest you go for it. If not then please stay home.

The winner of the big event will get a free membership to the Digital Wedding Forum ($100 value), and a free membership to Fotolia. Oh wait, Fotolia is already free never mind.
