I was really excited to enter the contest this month, but found the theme too difficult. Looking back, I have a ton of screenshots that could have been suitable. I guess it seemed too big of a theme to tackle at the time. Did anyone else feel the same way?

Interesting observation.  When I picked the theme it was deliberately picked to provide a lot of leeway as to what would count.  The idea was that if the theme is too specific (i.e. fireworks & flowers in the same screenshot) folks wouldn't be motivated to run around for however long to find that perfect scene.

Now that we have done the monthly a couple of times it's clear that the majority of the forum users have no interest in participating and so this is probably a good time to pick a theme that doesn't have a mass appeal but instead focuses the talent and creativity of those who do want to participate.

I had 7 screen shots set aside for this theme and couldn't decide on which one to submit. After all the procastination I did, I completely forgot to send one in. LOL  There's always next month I guess
