I’m sure you’ve seen these photo challenges before. The idea is very simple. Each day during February, take a photo that is somehow linked to a given prompt, and share it on your favourite social media.
My February photo challenge has become something of a regular feature here on Splodz Blogz over the last four or five years. Sharing my world in photos was how Splodz Blogz started back in 2010 after all, but these days that “daily” photo seems to have turned into something much more delayed and curated. By sharing my annual photo-a-day challenge, I want to encourage you to look at the world around you a little differently to normal, by hunting out things that might fit with each given theme.
The Splodz Blogz Daily Photo Challenge
Each day during February, take a photo that is somehow linked to the given prompt, and share it on your favourite social media using #SplodzDPC. As it’s a leap year, I’ve got 29 photo prompts for you here.
Interpret the given theme each day any way you choose, I’m sure you can find a way to make it fit the life you happen to be living that day. It’ll be interesting to see how we each interpret the themes differently (or the same!).
Ideally your photograph should be taken on the day listed, but this isn’t a set rule (as the whole thing is just for fun anyway!), so please share old photos if you like. Don’t worry if you can’t take part every day, you can dip in and out as you wish.
The idea is that you use these daily prompts to observe the world around you a little differently. If the themes provide you with an excuse to get outside for a bit each day (you know, get your One Hour Outside), then that’s wonderful, if you’re already outdoors, then that’s amazing – but if you’re stuck inside for whatever reason, then I’m sure you can also find a photographic subject that works.

How to Take Part
Make sure you’re following me on twitter, instagram and/or facebook and then either retweet, repost or share the theme image with your friends. It would be great to have a whole community of daily photo challenge participants for the Splodz Blogz Photo Challenge this February.
Every day, take a look at the theme and take a photograph with that in mind. Share it on your favourite social media (or on your blog, if you like) using #SplodzDPC.
Using the hashtag means I and others taking part can find your photographs and see what you’ve been taking – please share the love by commenting on or liking photos that others taking part are sharing. These links should help:
#SplodzDPC on twitter | #SplodzDPC on Instagram.
And that’s it. It couldn’t be simpler. See you every day in February…

Excellent. I was hoping you would do this again.

I’m glad you’re up for it again this year – I do enjoy seeing what other people share for each theme 🙂
