I usually don't post stuff from xkcd because I just assume everyone reads it, but this was too cool. You might remember his first Online Communities map from back in the day. It's pretty fun to see how everything has changed. Click on the picture on the site for a bigger one. It's really big.
This wasn't a planned shooting challenge, I was actually vacationing in New Hampshire the week of it. I ended up just looking through the pictures I had taken during the week and submitting the one most worthy of R & R, which was the goat sleeping under the fence thing. Some of the entries for this week were pretty lame, but the winner (the hospital one, Labor Day) had a great ironic theme.
Here's another example of a challenge we didn't actually submit pictures to, but we took pictures of anyways. I went to the New Boston fireworks show in New Hampshire this 4th of July, which is where these two pictures came from. Because it's pretty ineffective to use a flash when photographing fireworks, longer exposures can yield some pretty neat blurred-light images, similar to the Body (Light) Painting challenge. Anywho, here's the gallery, enjoy!
