Hey Hedgehogs, it’s time for another Weekly Photo Challenge. This week’s theme is entitled Worldwide Photo Walk.
- Be sure the title or description of your entry explains your interpretation of the theme.

HELP -
This Weekly Photo Challenge will include the photos you submit on your Worldwide Photo Walk

- What is a Photo Walk?
A. It’s a social photography event where photographers get together (usually in a downtown area or trendy section of town) to walk around, shoot photos, and generally have fun with other photographers.

The challenges are simple. You start with a theme, but the twist is that everyone needs to submit a title or description *(see end) with their photo that explains the ‘who, what, where, why, when or how’ they went through to get it. This helps us ‘feel’ the moment as you did, but can also help with voting. You might even find some great tips to make you better.

This is about challenging yourself, pushing beyond your limits, so have fun and try anything and everything whether you are good at it or not. You can't win if you don't try. Good luck and have fun!

Now for the legal stuff:
- Contests start Friday mornings and end Wednesday evening (EST)
- Voting starts Thursday morning and ends Friday evening (EST)
- One original entry per member, and entries may only be used once. Repeats will be deleted.
- Entries that do not follow the theme will be deleted
- Photos MUST include a title or description *(see below). Untitled entries will be deleted
- Post processing is fine, but keep it to a minimum
- Please shoot your photo during the challenge
- Once voting starts there can be no additional entries
- To keep it fair, the user names and vote counts are hidden until voting is over and winners are announced.
- All votes are anonymous
- A maximum of 250 entries will be allowed per challenge
- Your entry may be used in the WPC - Analysis Forum
- Rules are subject to change as the challenges require

Are the submissions supposed to be made during the official Photo Walks taking place tomorrow? -- Not likely an option along much of the Gulf Coast.

Ideally yes, but I imagine some people will already have plans so as long as it is in the spirit of the Photo Walk it will be accepted.

Thanks. Good. Maybe I can capture some images of those "trendy locations" sweeping water out of their front doors.

Is anyone else having problems with the location feature of the site?

After clicking to a location, paging back takes me all the way back to the world map which is annoying. But, otherwise, no trouble with the links.

See if these direct links take you anywhere you want to go.

There is also a walk in Auburn, but it is full so I didn’t include that link.
Of course, lots of others in CA, but these appeared to me to be closest to “near Sacramento”.

I'm going on a walk in downtown Toronto - as long as the rain holds off.
