Cecilia Prest says:
When do photos have to be in by? Thanks
|
|
|
frankygoes.com says:Our Flickr Community Team and moderators will review submissions and select a winner each month that will be announced on the last Thursday of each month. As reported in the above section How It Works, this month last Thursday will be on 29th so probably the closure will be on 28th. 13 months ago (permalink) |

Monthly is great... finally a challenge that I will be able to keep up with ;)

Cecilia Prest says:
I've run into a problem. The photos I wish to share are on my group Flickr site and already tagged. The only option to change it is "edit tag" but when I try to put #FlickrPhotoChallenge (space)#UpCLoseand Macro only the first tag appears. |

My photos aren't 1:1 magnification. They are taken with with a 0.5x magnification lens advertised as a macro lens (RF 35mm f/1.8 Macro IS STM). Are my photos still eligible?

Hello, Flickr Monthly challenge team, has a theme been added yet for the August challenge? Thank you for any feedback regarding this?

mermbruce says:
I have not seen the Flickr August 2025 webpage with its rules and unique tags. I have search the website and could not find it. If you know it, please post the web address. Thank you.

What is the theme for August?

Elise Creations & Passions says:
Is it ok to add photos that have a watermark?
|
|
|
frankygoes.com says:
It seems to me that is not forbidden so having watermarks should be good. |

Heidi Denmark says:
I submitted a photo for the August challenge a week ago, and today I accidentally deleted it. Is it ok to submit the same photo again?
|
|
|
planetnd says:
Heidi Denmark I would say yes as you deleted it so you are not submitting the same image twice - Personally I would encourage you to go for it submit it again. Best wishes

Why aren't photos without the right tags or off topic removed from the pool?

conall.. says:Why aren't photos without the right tags or off topic removed from the pool? tbh I dont really see much off-topic pictures this month. It is a pretty broad theme and Flickr tend to be generous and inclusive about eligibility for themes generally. for the theme tag, those pictures that lack it when the judging happens wont be included. ...but people still have a couple of weeks to add in the tag to pictures already submitted for this month Originally posted 9 months ago.

According to your rules, I have to tag #BlackAndWhite (for October) to my photo when posting to the pool. |

frankygoes.com says:
How do I add a tag to a photo? me too like you I already have all my b&w photos tagged with an all lowercase no spaces "blackandwhite" tag that does not allow me to enter the official tag #BlackAndWhite. This is the way Flickr portal works. But if you read the above sentence in the rules, you can understand (like I did) it's not important if # or spaces or capital letters are present or not. Of course, YES, the tags must be present. At least this is my interpretation, 8 months ago (permalink) |

Hardyguy55 says:
I thought the photo challenge for October was “Abstract”. But now it seems to have changed to “Black and White”?

conall.. says:But now it seems to have changed to “Black and White”? I dont think they changed it. It was announced on the 1st as black and white. 8 months ago (permalink) |

Richard Harvey UK says:
The Abstract theme relates to this month's Featured Photographer over in Flickr Social. There's a lot of plates spinning just now...! |

Ah, I also thought it was abstract!

devtmefl says:
There seems to be quite a few random photos that aren’t on topic or tagged as such. No November topic has been announced. Is this now a dead group?
|
|
|
conall.. says:No November topic has been announced. Is this now a dead group? "A new challenge theme will be announced on the first (business) day of each month." Flickr are based in USA so that means Monday to Friday there (as Saturday and Sunday are not business days) I expect the November topic will be announced tomorrow as that would be regarded the first business day of the month 7 months ago (permalink) |

How many pictures can you add to one theme?

athenachenxs says:
Does it matter when the photo was taken. Also, does it have to be raw or can it be edited?
|
|
|
conall.. says:Does it matter when the photo was taken look at the " Flickr Photo Challenge Group Highlights" gallery that they make for each month's winners and runners up. You can see that it features photos from many years ago as well as ones from recent years. So clearly the time taken is not an issue. Originally posted 4 weeks ago.
