I'm open to suggestions for the next photo contest.

[Grumpy Old Guy]

My favorite topic is wildlife and animals, but I've already done that one at least once. I'm open to suggestions for the theme of the next photography contest.

Thanks,

Grumpy

1. I've always hoped someone would come up with this...

"Can't believe I got this shot! No, it's not photoshopped!"

I have a few of those.

10. Good one.

[Walleye]

2. Performance of any kind. Including birds singing.

Musicians, politicians, cute cat, tricks, etc. It’s all performance

[Grumpy Old Guy]

11. Another good one.

3. "The Lusty Month Of May" One of my favourite numbers from "Camelot".

[Grumpy Old Guy]

12. Hmmmmm.

That might work, but the contest will end before May is over.

4. Favorite family heirloom

[Grumpy Old Guy]

13. Ooh, that is a good one.

Every family has an heirloom.

5. Glad to see you're on this, my dear Grumpy! I look forward to seeing what you decide.

[Grumpy Old Guy]

14. Thanks dear Peggy!

[niyad]

22. Glad to see you, Ms Peggy. How are you doing?

6. Someone once before suggested "Glass"

How about a color? Red, blue, purple, etc.

[Grumpy Old Guy]

15. Also a good idea!

Thanks!

7. planes trains and cars bring may flowers

Of course, it doesn't have to be just those vehicular conveyances.

[Grumpy Old Guy]

16. Another good one.

Thanks!

[LatteLady]

8. "Diamond in the rough"

[Grumpy Old Guy]

17. Very good.

[George McGovern]

9. I'm with 2naSalit -- "Can't believe I got this shot!"

[Grumpy Old Guy]

20. Maybe.

This would definitely get us looking through our archives, wouldn't it?

18. Kitchens. I think it's a very personalized space, and might yield lots to look at in contest entries.

It might be one’s own cooking space, a professional kitchen, a campsite, or a street-vendor’s set up?
“The Kitchen” I guess would be all-encompassing enough.

[Grumpy Old Guy]

21. I like that.

A person's kitchen can say a lot about them. We could shoot wide shots, closeups, dinners, etc.

[Diamond_Dog]

23. Or maybe "in my house." Something inside your house?

[Grumpy Old Guy]

24. Also good.
