Cult of Risk Taking Self Portrait Photographers, let’s get the show on the road!

Being dead was fun, but we need simpler challenges to get the ball rolling.

I’ve been slack in getting checking back to the group discussion page and we need to be proactive… You want to post a new challenge? email it to everyone in the group, since I hardly check back to the discussion page.

Wanna join the group… Do these challenges, email me with a link to your flickr photos, and you’re in!

Here are some simple ones to get you rolling. These are playful… more dead pics later, right?

1. First Melissa’s reveal. You’ve got to reveal something in public. I’m going to take off my shoes in a busy place in the city here. What are you going to show?

2. Then take a picture of your fists… no other reason than i wanna see what i’m up against in a fist fight with each of you.

3. Then, I want you to take a picture of yourself squeezing someone’s tiny head… ideally a stranger and ideally with the help of a stranger. Get someone in the background and appear to pinch their head. This may be impossible, but its a challenge right?

4. Eating… I want to see pictures of everyone with food in their mouth. Bonus points for gross or beautiful pictures of food in your mouth.

5. Being in the air. Take a picture of yourself not touching the ground.

6. Can you appear to break the law? Notice how I made that into a question? No liability!

7. Be in a tree.

You don’t have to do these in order, just do them.

Bonus bonus bonus - Anyone who does them all in one week and posts them all by January 7th, I will personally buy you something stupid on ebay and have it shipped to you. No requests and you’ll have to take a picture of yourself with it!
