Challenge Details: Photograph shoes without fee inside of them in black and white.
I guess the spell checker wont pick up fee as a problem...
I seriously took a few minutes to realize it was feet.

Interesting topic. The one thing I notice along the freeways here more than anything else (except busted car parts) is shoes. They seem to be everywhere. But I'm thinking it may not be smart to stop and shoot them on the side of the 405...
But so far, all the shoes I've seen haven't had feet in them. Which is good. |

There have been a few spelling/grammar mistakes in the challenge titles lately, take for example "Rules of Thirds". Shouldn't it just be "Rule", not "Rules"? And then there's "Valentine's Photo". First of all, do we need the word "photo" in the title since it's a photo challenge? And there shouldn't be an apostrophe in the word "valentines". It's photos of valentines we are looking for, not a photo belonging to valentine!
Oh, and I won't mention the unnecessary apostrophe in your post title! LOL |

How is it that no one is mentioning the other challenge?
"Take a picture of your place work gives the viewer a .. [more] glimpse of what goes on there"
your place work gives the viewer?

| The title of this thread should begin "Spelling Nazis..." not "Spelling Nazi's".... You don't need the apostrophe. |

| Language is important. If the descriptions are attempts at humor, then I'm laughing. But, if the descriptions remain unintelligible, then I'll be happy to avoid participation. I think these "typos" show a lack of respect to the membership. |

I agree it is quite sloppy. |

Yup. He fixed half of the problem in the 2nd one. Did change it to place of work, but still is not correct.

It is quite possible that "Valentine's" in the description could be acceptable because it is short for "St. Valentine's Day." |
