WPC 1526 - 100 Steps*

*ENTRIES MUST BE TAKEN BETWEEN 25 JUNE AND 1 JULY 2015
- Entries without the appropriate EXIF Data will be removed

Hey Hedgehogs, it’s time for another Weekly Photo Challenge. This week’s theme is entitled 100 Steps.
- Be sure the title or description of your entry explains your interpretation of the theme.

The challenges are simple. You start with a theme, but the twist is that everyone needs to submit a title or description 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 along the way.

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. Remember; you can't win if you don't try. Good luck and have fun!

HELP -

- Starting at your front door,
- Take 10 steps, turn and shoot,
- Take 10 more steps, turn and shoot,
- Continue until you reach 100 Steps.
- Of the 10 shots, post your best.

From what I gather, we are to take ten steps from our house and turn around, capturing what we see behind us. Proceed another ten and repeat until we have ten shots, 100 feet. Chose our best shot. Has anyone followed the rules or am I reading this wrong?

The rules only say turn not turn around.
The exercise I believe is to get you to see many things.
Good luck.

So, the photos we're looking at are 100 steps or less from the house? Some members sure live in unique places. Thanks for the clarification. The contests are always fun.

Either some people didn't read the instructions for this weeks challenge or they live in some pretty interesting places.

You and I have made the same observation. I does give me a chuckle.

I was really intrigued by this weeks challenge, unfortunately I live in a second floor apt. and every 10 steps out to 100 from my front door either leaves me in a bare hallway or stairwell. Truly uninspiring.

I'm sure there's some form of a ground floor entrance of one sort or another you can start from.

You'll figure it out! S-
