I want to set up a photography scavenger hunt on a flickr group but need some ideas on things that would be fun and yet offer a challenge.

these are soooo much fun i just wish i had a camrea! mine broke!
anyway!
something dated from the 1950′s ccould be an old house, car, licsen plate.
something hot! — must show steam or be red as if it werea burner on the stove!
most exspensive price tag! <-- if your doing a points based hunt then only 1 person would score on this because once you ahve them all the highest would win!
an unexpected grouping of something--- a bunch of birds in the sky, group of snow bunnys all huddled together!
large cut out of someone famous.. move rentals have these FYI
someone eating something they don't like!
emotional get all listed sad: happy: shocked:
something that is out of place - eg: someone eating soup with a fork, some roller skating on snow,
a group of people of different races
birthday cake with lite candles <-- if the candles are lite that will prefent peeps going to the kroger and takeing a photo!
Photo of a radio station studio! <-- they may have to work for that one!
a Jar full of pennies
something moving - other then a car van truck
photo of unique signs -
something of a certian color or goup of colors
something other then Ice cube frozen
photo of someone taking a photo- not directly at them!
foot print photo'
Direction have a photo of nothing but striaght lines pointing to 1 subject of attention! <-- worth1000.com has photo contest and i am stealing there idea's for you!
Capture any object or scene showing rain
take a photo of somethings Reflection
Look for patterns, textures, and use the shapes of your subject to create an interesting and dynamic composition that grabs your eye.
Morning - can be shown so many ways, rushing the kids to the bus stop to get them to school on time, doing crosswords in the paper with a cup of java, or perhaps it's the weekend and then sun is streaming in your bedroom while you continue to snooze.

Try to capture not only the literal sense of what's going on, but the mood.. is it relaxing.. is it hectic?

Minimizing is the act of stripping down your scene into it's very basic constituents - eliminating all other distractions through clever composition and choice of subject. Often the effect is exaggerated to make it clear that the specific style is being used.

Bridges and railways make interesting images.. often seen with a vanishing point perspective but you are encouraged to try different points of view.

Okay i got to get back to work now!
group me i'll steal others photo's for this hunt! lol Joking! i'll wait untill i get a camrea for x-mas

On Photography $81.25 High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles On Photography is a 1977 collection of essays by Susan Sontag. It originally appeared as a series of essays in the New York Review of Books between 1973 and 1977. In the book, Sontag expresses her views on the history and presentday role of photography in capitalist societies as of the 1970s. Sontag discusses many examples of modern photography. Among these, she contrasts Diane Arbuss work with that of Depressionera documentary photography commissioned by the Farm Security Administration. She also explores the history of American photography in relation to the idealistic notions of America put forth by Walt Whitman and traces these ideas through to the increasingly cynical aesthetic notions of the 1970s, particularly in relation to Arbus and Andy Warhol.
