Good day everyone.

Not a contest of wit and capacity to make good photos but to really capture the moment, however mundane...
I would like to propose a "This day in ?????"... capture the moment post.

We could start by taking a photo on the 1st of every month starting this May. A thread on that day, we post the images, capturing and freezing for history that date/moment of the earth.

So every 1st of the month we all post together on a "This day in (month)" a photo taken on that day only.

No need to be editing etc, just capture something you wish to freeze in history. Perhaps with a short message if needed or a wish, even prayers.

I hope we can all together chip in on this and make memories.

Regards to all,
-Wallen

Good idea. Just curios as to starting in May and not April. However, whenever you start I will attempt to follow.

I like it, but echo the sentiment, why not start on April 1?

If the implicit purpose is to "show off" recent work, I'm not sure I see a point to this.

If the explicit purpose is to show what this day was like, it could be very interesting.

I’m in. Great idea to take mind off present challenges to social interactions.

Couldn’t you just start a thread each month - with your explanation - in the “Photo Contests and Challenges” Section?

Is there any reason for not doing this on April 1, in these relatively unique times?

I think it is a great idea in these isolated times.

No one says you can’t start it yourself on April 1.
