I particularly enjoy the simplicity and openness of the challenge. There are some very talented, serious photographers who submit classy, excellent entries and I enjoy their craft. Equally well, I also get a kick out of seeing the photo’s posted by those who are less serious, perhaps have lesser equipment, but just decide to give it a go.
There is something quite refreshing about seeing such a broad range of submissions, and for encouraging everyone to get out and walk the streets with their camera, regardless of experience, innate talent, skill or degree of equipment sophistication. I’m sure there are photography forums where those with real talent and passion can ply their craft, but it would be a shame to see this comp get too serious.
Cheers
