Weekly Photo Challenge: Launch

LAUNCH = to start in some activity – http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/launch

at first I wrote at

“In 2011 I liked to join the weekly photo challenge every Friday, an idea of the stuff around http://dailypost.wordpress.com/category/photo-challenges/. Now they seem to have new goals, so why not carry on their idea? My suggestion: Let’s try to continue! This week’s topic: the “A” archive: introduce one photo of your archive with an “A” keyword for example AFRICA (like me) or Antarctic, Aggression or Angst, Adventure or Animal – I’m sure you’ll find a picture. Let’s stay in contact like we used to do in 2011!”

Then I noticed that dailypost.wordpress.com decided (a little bit too late) to continue their weekly photo challenge with new topic: LAUNCH – but because someone wrote at
https://flickrcomments.wordpress.com/2012/01/06/weekly-photo-challenge-a-archive/
“Definitely count me in the future, whether or not Daily Post continues their topics…” I am now considering, if I should continue my idea, to collect weekly for an A to Z challenge, maybe I should change the name to “Weekly AZ Archive: B” (etc.) and upload that not Friday but Thursday? Would someone like to join there?

    I do like the photo challenge idea, don’t know where I would post except at my own site on wordpress though,I am not very good with computer stuff. It took me 6+ months to really understand wordpress…Good Photo of the ships. They seem huge to see in person. Thanks Frizz. Blessings.

  5. Frizz, this is super spectacular and I’m not at all sure I have anything to “Launch” for this week’s challenge . . .

    Still working through my archive but I have to tell you that any day is fine with me if only because I do not have a steady routine in my week.

  8. Fantastic photo! How about this: do yours photo topic of the week on a different day? So we have two opportunities to post up photos but spread over the course of the week.
