THE NEW SHOT NOD.

.

Yesterday's theme was "Roads" and our tag was #jj_forum_0813.

.

Great submission today by @exploringmycorner. In case you missed it, think of the "New Shot Nod" posts as a special reward. A daily feature set aside for those who push themselves to get out and shoot.

.

The "New Shot Nod" is our way of reminding you that the daily theme can be for more than work you've already shot. It can also be a nudge. An assignment pushing you a little to try something new.

.

My goal is to set aside at least one special feature a day for someone who has taken the time to use the theme as a creative assignment. We'll see how it goes.

.

I'll post yesterday's "Roads" top shots and a new theme in a few hours. Stay tuned. ;-).

healthyasahorsevet: Great idea! Also a wonderful shot!

runnerkimhall: Love this! @exploringmycorner congrats!!!

lidyvps: Gorgeous!

californiasoul__: I am truly honored by this feature. However, I did take this shot awhile ago so I'm afraid it's not new in that sense; I just never got around to editing and posting it. Thank you so much @joshjohnson for recognizing it, however, and I apologize to anyone who thinks it was an unfair feature I didn't think to include the date of capture when I posted. My sincerest apologies for that, as well.

californiasoul__: @xrachx @mcalot63 @billsmith2315 @healthyasahorsevet @runnerkimhall @lidyvps @vicki_85 @salad_t @werter Thank you so much.

WHAT THE HECK IS #JJ?.

.

Are you new to the community? It's not as confusing as it seems at first. :-). Here's the deal.

.

Sometimes it can be hard to get your pictures seen and find inspiring photographers to follow. That's why I created the forum 3 years ago. It's a place to come together for inspiration and encouragement.

.

Every morning, NYC time, we make a post announcing our new theme and tag. Your job is to tag images that fit the theme. You can use shots you have already posted but we really love to see the theme inspire you to find new shots. The @jj_editors and I scour the tag and repost our favorite submissions through out the day. Over half a million people might see your pic! Pretty cool stuff.

.

We are ALL about keeping things simple, but in the spirit of our motto, "Create to connect", we ask that you follow our only "rule". We call it the 1-2-3 rule. For every 1 image you tag, comment on 2 in the tag and like 3 others.

.

Glad you're here. Can't wait to see your shots. Speak up if you have questions or comments. We like to think this is the friendliest place on the internet. :-).

mcalot63: @joshjohnson #jj I submitted a shot and story for #jj_forum_0812 and I put personal instead of 0812. But I immediately sent a second caption correcting it. I hope it gets to your fabulous crew, the story alone is worth it. Theme being "personal"

JOSH'S TOP SHOT + TIP.

.

ROADS.

.

1 of 10 - Here's my very favorite shot from yesterday's forum. Our tag was #JJ_Forum_0813 with 8,000 shots in the gallery.

.

Really loved this submission by @_anamar_. In fact I think it was my favorite shot of the day.

.

I think this was my first introduction to @_anamar_'s account. Really wonderful work. Take a look and you'll see her style is wonderfully defined and unique.

.

I think maybe it's a good opportunity to talk about a topic that comes up from time to time. Let me see if I can generalize the question I mean. Maybe it goes something like this. Why do you pick polished and "professional" images Josh. Shouldn't everyone have a shot? I don't have much of a following and my style isn't as defined as some of the people's shots you picked. Shouldn't those of is that are more diverse have a shot too? Is it ok if I don't have a style?".

.

I'll work on answering that question and post an Instatip later today. Bottom line though, OF COURSE it's ok. . . but . . . Check back in a few and we'll talk it over. ;-).
