Google+ Daily Photography Themes

A look at how pho­to­graphy on Google+ is or­gan­ised by its unique daily pho­to­graphy themes. Also a quick list of the active daily themes on Google+. (Many thanks to Ray Bilcliff for the list.)

+You This is part 3 of a 7-part art­icle series on Google+. Read the others here: Google+ vs Facebook: 10 reasons why Google+ is far better g 5 Tips for Photography on Google+ Google+ Daily Photography Themes g g

I have often re­marked how Google+ is better than Facebook in more ways than one. Perhaps I will have to high­light this point now–and add that here on Google+ we are also a little (read: lot) more cre­at­ively organised–when it comes to pho­to­graphy and/or photo sharing.

Photographs shared on Google+ (and that issue of how Google re­tained copy­rights to photos you shared, now being quite dead) are or­gan­ised into what we call themes. These themes are based on the days of the week and are often cur­ated by one or a small group of people who have con­sid­er­able fol­lowing (and time, if I may add.)

What daily themes are and how one can use them

Now the concept is simple: you can pick a theme (today is Saturday so I shall pick one of today’s themes) say, Sunset Saturday. Then post a pho­to­graph as re­quired by that theme. In this case, of course, the de­scrip­tion is quite clear to be sunset, but other themes may re­quire some reading; or there are ob­vious themes pointing in ob­vious dir­ec­tions which to some may not be ap­parent. For in­stance  Benno Dielmann’s Rolling Shutter Saturday which ob­vi­ously re­quires you to click pho­to­graphs using the rolling shutter tech­niques (which many people have no idea of. Trust me, I can name a few.)

Alright, once you have picked a theme and a pho­to­graph as­so­ci­ated with it, share it on Google+ keeping in mind a un­anym­ously agreed upon norm: you have to add this little piece of text to your post–(#Theme) cur­ated by (+Curator/s)–without the par­en­thesis, of course.

Here is one of my pho­to­graphs I put up a few minutes ago.

One last thing wish to men­tion is that while these themes are a fun activity, do not let them hinder your posting. If you have a pic­ture that does not con­form to the day’s theme (or if you have one but do not wish to post it!) never mind! These are just a neat way to stumble upon more pho­to­graphs and they be­nefit you in a great many ways which I shall let you dis­cover all by yourself!

Below is a list of active daily themes cur­ated by some fun people (take a look at the cur­ators too!) I did not com­pile this list, Ray Bilcliff did, on his blog, and I ap­pre­ciate his ef­forts; there­fore I have de­cided not to up­date this fur­ther: if you ar­rived here a long time after I pub­lished this, I sug­gest you go straight to True Portraits of Nature and take a look at Ray’s won­derful list (he’s kept it up­dated) and con­tribute to the im­pressive list of themes he, him­self, is curating.
