This is the thread for any comments or questions concerning June's Assignment.

Nice topic. At least one so called friend suggested a self-portrait.

Wow thats a really broad subject and I imagine we'll see a broad range of entries too.

Looking forward to posting my first "On Assignment" entry!

Great shot to get us rolling DPParis!

Darragh, you have the img tags the wrong way around. It should be [img]at%20the%20start%20and[/img] at the end. Also the url should be the one ending in .jpeg. Just click on "all sizes" on flickr and it will pop up

Interesting subject, it will be fun to figure out what to shoot this month indeed. I see some great entries are already starting to show up too...

Good Luck everyone!

Darn - I was hoping to do the Sanzhi UFO houses - a badly-located never-used holiday resort from the 70s here in Taiwan that pretty much embodies 'decay'. Unfortunately, the UFO houses embody decay only in the past tense - now they embody 'destruction', but so well as to no longer be there at all or serve as a suitable photographic subject. They had been up for demolition for ages and it never happened but I just read a blog post from someone who travelled out there a month or so ago and all that was left was a few coloured shards of fibreglass along the shore. What a pity, being such a weird eerie location for photography shoots, movies and music videos (supposedly MTV filmed out there). Here's a pretty good Flickr gallery showing what was there. Now imagine that at dusk or with a howling typhoon bearing sheets or rain which is pretty much what comes in from the sea for a good few months every year.

Wow, with heavy rain at nightime I would put that in the "Blade Runner" catagory....

@ Al

No we're not actually and i've checked his/her other posts and he/she is just copying what was posted 2-3 posts above. Possibly spam, i'm sure the mods will fix it.

So it turns out that it's difficult to capture the destructive power of 20 warships from 6 different navies when they're decked out in flags and festive stuff...

I've got a back-up plan (or two) though.
