WHAT ARE THE PHOTOGAMES 2018? The original Introduction

History

PhotoGames was created one evening in January 2018 by 3 photographers, @jarvie, @derekkind and @caseygrimley, while discussing blockchain posting ideas including how to get the photography community closer together. @Jarvie suggested doing an ongoing series of Photography Games every week.

Photo Stars

Each week a group of 3 photographers called PhotoStars choose 3-4 games to host and judge during that week.

For Season 4 the PhotoStars committed to host the games prior to the start of the season on the leaderboard.

Types of Games

You do not need to be a photographer to play. There are tons of unique games which rotate all the time. Each game lets ALL OF YOU interact.

Gameplay is usually based on one of the following:

Guessing skills
Creative commentary tasks
Usage of your photo skills
Knowledge of photography
Posting your own pictures

Some of these games require no photo skills, just an appreciation of photography. Others will greatly benefit the best photographers out there. It really is a game for the whole Hive community.

Examples of past Games

“Metadata Monday” - Guess the focal length, shutter speed, aperture, etc.
"Title Tuesday"- create the best title to go with picture
“Where is it Wednesday”- Guess the location
“Thoughtful Thursday” - Create a Meme out of a picture
“Fixit Friday” - Edit a picture
“Show-Off Saturday” - Show off your own picture based on a theme
