It shouldn't be stressful.  It is aimed at stretching the imagination, and ultimately improving our images in some way.  All themes can and should be stretched to the max to provide interesting and varied images of each theme.General Guidelines Keeping with the purpose and this being a Nikon place, the primary camera(s) used should be Nikon. Sometimes though, the right camera for the shot may be something else.  That’s OK for a minimal number of photos.We have provided a Nikonites list. It is up to the member if they want to used this list or create their own.The themes can be tackled in any order. As the year wears on fewer themes are available and therefore themes become more difficult to creatively fill. If a member is struggling to find photo opportunities,  members are allowed to substitute up to 5 themes once the challenge is underway. Substitutions need to be named accordingly (example “week 49 - black (substitution) ).Members should create their own thread in this forum  and title it using the term “52 in 2015”, e.g. “Tracey’s Awesome 52 in 2015”. The first post should be made before January 1, 2015, and include your theme list and any own personal guidelines you want to add (see sample below). The personal guidelines may be added to make it more challenging, less challenging or help you work on skills you would like to work on in 2015.<ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Describe the list. (e.g.. “I’m using the Nikonites 52 List” or “Nikonites 52 with 9 changed themes” or “The Eyelight 52”) </li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Add your own personal Guidelines like: <ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">1 theme per week. </li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Post themes in order of the list. </li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">No substitutes after Jan 1. </li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">No restrictions other than 52 posted photos on each theme by Dec 31. </li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Zoomed with my feet (All taken with the 50mm lens) </li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">All flash photos (something you might do if you want to work on your flash lighting skills).</li> </ul></li> </ul>Photos should be taken and published weekly preferably, however this is not always possible. Please state in your guidelines if you are doing a “strict” - one a week, every week or will be aiming for the 52 to be complete by the end of the year.The challenge officially starts on Jan 1st 2015Any questions, please ask, oh and happy shooting <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" />Themes to follow in the next post.  Traceyjj & Eyelight</blockquote>
