Today is Tuesday, June 30, 2009. Today’s theme for the 2009 Challenge is PORTRAIT.

"Friends" by Alireza Teimoury

We have done a black and white portrait theme earlier in the year, but today is just “portrait”. You could do a candid street portrait, a portrait of a friend or family member, or a self portrait. You should have no problem finding a subject for today’s theme. For some inspiration, you can read Trevor’s interview with Bill Waldman.

Once you’re ready to submit your work to Flickr, you’ve got to do two important things. First, make sure you tag your photos correctly; “2009challenge″ and “2009challenge181“. Also, if you haven’t already, join the PhotoChallenge group on Flickr. Then, submit each day’s photo to the group’s pool.
