Fleeting Ideas - My trip/city/vacation/....

Meh, having hard time to motivate me for doing stuff in my live which isn't absolutely necessary. Thought about doing some puzzles for my cake day. Skipped it, is to close to christmas anyway. Thought about maybe doing some puzzles similar to my puzzle thread 2018 for my birthday. Skipped it, because to much work. Also haven't done a giveaway since eight months. Man, how time flies by. At least I managed to do some walking in nature the last two saturdays.

This gave me an idea. Why not somehow connect the stuff mentioned above in some form of (mini-)event. The idea would be to present some fotosof where you live or where you have went for some kind of trip/vacation:

  • Fotos would have to be shown on a giveaway or several giveaways
  • Fotos have all to be shot by participant himself
  • Thematically anything goes like just one place/building you find yourself interesting, "sight-seeing places" of your city, landscapes during your hiking trip, the south sea during your vacation, nature fotos while walking through the forest in the backyard of your house, etc...
  • Your participation should be information-light and foto-heavy, no text walls about the history of place xyz, there can be some information but keep it light. It should be show more, talk less. There is a comment section if people want to know more
  • Stations of a trip/city can be separated on several giveaways chained in a train, especially if you have some more fotos you want to show but one giveaway with 3-5 fotos is completely okay
  • Imgur- or similar sitelinks can be added in addition as the SG way of images is a bit poor

For the giveaways:

  • They have to be running during the event
  • Have to be invite only
  • Have to be by the participant themselves

"Rules" are not set in stone. They may be revised if the event evers come to frutition. Just a general check-up if there would be some interest. Preparation time would be for sorting fotos, coming up with what you want to show or planning and making some regional trip (and as that maybe serving as some kind of motivator to leave the house for people like me). May answer tomorrow if there is something to answer (and interest).

Would you be interested in partaking for such or similar "event"?

No, it's fine, I was thinking about something else initially.

i like your idea. best part is "Your participation should be information-light and foto-heavy" ... <3

not so sure about the "local" thing, tho. why not giving complete freedom on building a trip? say, i already have a few nice shots about my trip to Switzerland and Spain so i'll use those to build my visual-train-trip.

that wouldn't be what you're asking for (some kind of motivator to leave the house) but it will be easier to participate cause fotos have already been taken...

Local is not a must. As written you can also use fotos of your past vacation trip to the South Sea or Switzerland or Spain. Maybe I overstretched the regional part a bit. I just wanted to emphasize that there is no need to show something "famous" or "sightseey".
