January's theme is very broad! I am not going to give any suggestions. Whatever you feel qualifies for "Creativity" is acceptable - as long as you can explain it!
T-H-A-N-K Y-O-U for all the letters this month. It did not prove to be as easy as first thought. We did receive some good shots none-the-less.
As we enter our second year, we're asking for suggestions for upcoming themes. If you have any good ideas, send them to frabjousphoto@optonline.net. Thanks.
There is still 3 more hours left in December!!!!

"A" is for Alphabet Abductor!!!!
Oh, that Sparrow had the wisdom of Solomon! This post would have been titled "S" is for Slide, however the faithful followers are fighting over the photo! I could follow in Solomon's footsteps and........
This would give each party their own "S"! However, this would not tell the whole story. Just what is the whole story? Your guess is as good as mine! I know there are at least two sides. I will post the photos and you can write your own conclusion.
Can you deduce who should get bragging rights in this "S" snafu?

Subway Alphabet
The letter code used today for about two-thirds of the system dates from the opening of the Independent Subway and must have been planned from about 1930. The original code ran from A to H only.

Theme for December - Alphabet
Just what kind of photos will represent this month's theme? What inspired me to enter this as a theme, in the first place, was the gentleman at the Bryant Park Craft Fair who had photos of nature or architecture that represented letters of the alphabet. He then made words from them into beautiful plaques. When you are conscious of it, you can see letters in just about everything. Keep that in mind this month. Maybe by the end of the month, we can pool our photos and make something Frabjous!
November was a challenge! Thanks for all the effort put forth! December may present a challenge as well. A note of caution: Don't look for photo ops while you are driving! Looking forward to your creativity!

A Year of Frabjous!
This evening brings to a close our first year of Frabjous Photo. I can't believe 12 months have passed. It truly has been a lot of fun observing how everyone sees things differently. I want to thank each and every one of you who participated over the past year. Thanks to Raven, Arlene, Tom, Ironman, Kyle, Kryptonite, Sue, Linda, Mike, and Sandi (with an "i"). You all made it a lot of fun. I hope you enjoyed it as much as I did. Looking forward to another year!

In an Instant!
Technology is wonderful when it comes to artistic expression. It enables you to alter a photo in an instant, when it used to take hours in the dark room. It has allowed me to take this cool picture of the Empire State Building...
and transform it into this dramatic black and white photo....
or this cartoon-like surreal photo....
or this vintage-looking postcard photo....
The original photo and all the altered ones were done, in an instant, on my iPhone.

A note about December themes!
Was at a craft fair today and there was a gentleman who made words out of photographs he took of objects, manmade and natural, that looked like letters of the alphabet. He then framed them and they were awesome. Had that in mind when I selected Alphabet as one of the possible themes for next month.
Reportage is reporting or documenting an event. Although, when I first included this in the list, I was under the impression it meant photographing someone without their knowing it. (Please keep in mind, I would prefer not to get sued!)
Nostalgia is pretty self explanatory. And Comfort can be whatever brings you comfort. I hope there is a theme that is of interest to you all. Please don't forget to vote. Thanks for all your great support.
P. S. If you have any suggestions for future themes, please let me know. Thanks.

Theme for November - Technology!
As you may know, the voting was tied once again. Got tired of flipping a coin, so I rolled the virtual dice on my phone. Odds - Doors & Windows; Evens - Technology. Evens it was, so Technology it is!
Thanks to all who submitted Round pictures in October. (Even all you "just under the wire" photographers!)
Looking forward to November's Technological challenge!
