Photo A Day Challenge: Let’s do week 17!

Good morning sunshines! {Or afternoon if that’s what time it is where you are}.

Today I’m bringing you the list for week 17. Can you believe we’re already SEVENTEEN weeks into 2015? Weren’t we just celebrating the New Year? Time flies when you’re taking photos.

The list this week is fun in design and in prompts. Who doesn’t love jelly and rainbows? Irene of Missy Minzy designed the list for us, and I love it. It just makes me smile.

Does it make you smile too?

Photo A Day Challenge: Let’s do week 17! Take a photo each day and share it. Fun times my friend.

How to play on Instagram

+ check out the photo a day list for the daily prompt
+ use your phone or camera to take a photo using the prompt as inspiration
+ upload the photo to Instagram, add a caption {you could mention the day and the prompt in the caption}, add the hashtag #FMSphotoaday and then publish.

+ check out the #fmsphotoaday hashtag to see all the other photos. Like them. Comment on them. Be part of the community.

+ Each day a Fab Four is picked from the photos shared on Instagram for the challenge. It’s four photos that have captured my attention from each prompt. Check my feed {@fatmumslim} to see the photos.

How to play on Facebook

+ check out the photo a day list for the daily prompt
+ use your phone or camera to take a photo using the prompt as inspiration
+ upload the photo to Facebook – you can either share on your personal page, on your business page {if you have one} or in our Facebook Photo A Day group {you’ll be added within 12 hours of requesting}, add a caption {you could mention the day and the prompt in the caption} and then publish.

+ check out the photos shared in the group, or among your friends. Comment, like and be part of the photo-taking community.

+ Each day a Fab Four is picked from the photos shared in our Facebook group for the challenge by our lovely admin team. It’s four {or more} photos that have captured my attention from each prompt. The photos are made into a collage, shared and pinned to the top of the group.

How to remember what the prompts are

+ If you’re a lucky iPhone or iPad owner, you can use the Little Moments App to remind you of what the prompts are, as well as make your photos a bit fancy. You can grab the App here.
+ For all devices and PC, we upload the prompts which you can download automatically into your phone or PC calendar. For Smartphones & Mac Calendar, click here. For HTML for web viewing, click here.

  1. You’ve got me stumbled over mess! I’m looking at the hashtag this morning and loving all the pretty Fluffy pictures. I’ll want to shut my eyes at the messy pictures Wednesday! No doubt my kids will provide lots of good ammo for the prompt shot!

  2. I haven’t been able to get back into FMS photo a day this year, keep looking at the prompts and thinking this week and only managed one prompt last week. I can’ believe it is week 17 and I am still saying this week. I do love this week’s design. I don’t know what it is, but it looks so inviting and delicious in a way that makes me want to eat sweets and jellies 🙂

  3. Is there anyway to add the prompts to Gmail through a shared Gmail calendar, or do I need to download the .ics file every week? I am not complaining just wondering. I just find it difficult to get on a computer to do it and it doesn’t work on my android smartphone for some reason.
