Win points from each @Photogames Star’s post, by sharing music and photos.
PLEASE READ THE RULES BELOW - this is a different version of the Musical Monday game we have played in the past.
Running to the sea...
Music and photography share a strong bond in my mind, but not always an obvious one. I listen to music constantly while I'm out traveling, often alone and driving from location to location, and so I strongly associate some music with certain photos, even though there's no obvious thematic connection. Each trip has had its own playlist, a few songs that stuck out and were repeated over and over and eventually became the soundtrack for the landscapes I was driving through. This song by Röyksopp and Susanne Sundfør was one such song on my 2012 Icelandic adventure (the photo is from Vestrahorn, in southern Iceland).
RULES & HOW TO PLAY
For MUSIC MATCH MONDAY we would like you to share a piece of music (can be written lyrics or a link to a sound file or music video) AS WELL AS your own photo (or artwork) to go along with that music. We want to see how music inspires your art.
We will be judging your entries based on how your photo “matches” or fits the music that you chose, not on the technical quality of the photo. Try to convince us: feel free to write a description or story telling us how the photo or artwork relates to the song in your mind.
- Share your music and photo in the comments of the Photo Star’s post.
- Only one entry per person on each Photo Star's post.
- Each Photo Star will choose their winner.
- For this game you have 2 days to play (Wednesday 6PM EST / 11PM UTC).
SCORING
- Each Photo Star will choose five winning song-photos and award them with the following points:
- 6 | 5 | 4 | 3 | 2
- (Max points allowed per person for this game is 18)
- Winners will be added to the Photo Games Leaderboard
- The total prize pool is 110 SBD and will be awarded the point leaders at the end of the month, as described here
