A Rejected Introduction

I’ve been thinking a lot lately about how I always look through my photos to find the best ones to post. But sometimes the best ones aren’t actually the best ones.

Sometimes the horrible ones are actually the best. You know what I’m talking about. We all have more of those than we’d like to admit. But those rejected photos don’t usually make it to the blog, much less the rest of the internet, because we’re caught up in presenting ourselves in the best way possible instead of what sometimes is the real way.

Or sometimes a picture just turns out crappy.

So we’re going to have some fun with them. On the 2nd of each month, I’m going to host a blog carnival for everyone to showcase their Photo Album Rejects. Occasionally we might have a theme (think school pictures…shudder), but the majority of the time I want everyone to be free to post a bad photo of their choice. You can add a story or description if you feel it’s necessary. But let’s face it, some of our snapshots are self explanatory.

If you’ve ever participated in a blog carnival like Works For Me Wednesday or Kelly’s Korner Show Us Your Life, you already know what to do. If this is your first time, go here for a full explanation.

I am looking forward to seeing everyone’s pictures on February 2nd! Grab the button on my sidebar and help spread the word!
