Enough with the creepy and crawly, this week is Soft.

Interpret however you like, be it focus or feel or?

This challenge begins when posted and ends at noon GMT, 17 November 2025. After that voting will commence.

Remember, if you post a photo, you may be the winner. Be prepared to host a new challenge.

* NOTE: This week's challenge winner will be decided by voting - See below *.

The General Image Rules:

  • Camera: Any CAMERA is allowed (images from scanned film are also allowed);
  • Time: Any on-topic photo taken at any time is eligible, although photos that have won other competitions should NOT be entered (meaning won competitions here, so no problem as of yet!);
  • Size: Maximum image size is 1600px on the long end. Minimum size is 800px;
  • Post Processing: Do whatever you like, and the voters/host will decide if it works;
  • Title your image;
  • Posting: ONE PHOTO per photographer per challenge;
  • Commenting: No commenting and Likes during challenge. After the challenge is closed discussion is encouraged;
  • Keep it clean, and both family and work safe;
  • Have lots of FUN;
The rules for choosing the winner in a voting week:
  1. Once the challenge is closed on Monday noon GMT, voting will commence;
  2. The voting window will be closed 24 hours later on Tuesday noon GMT;
  3. People who didn't enter a photograph are also allowed to vote;
  4. Contestants cannot vote for their own image;
  5. Voters must cast 3 votes. Any fewer and the votes will be discarded. The only exception is if there are fewer entries, in which case all must be included in the votes;
  6. The votes will be tallied as follows: 1st Place = 3 points, 2nd Place = 2 points, and 3rd Place = 1 point;
  7. The host of the challenge may also enter a photo and is encouraged to do so;
  8. Should the host win, the runner up will host the next challenge, so as to avoid the same person hosting in two consecutive weeks;
  9. In case of a tie, the host will make the final decision;
  10. After the challenge has ended, everyone is invited to comment on the images and/or provide feedback on their vote choices!
Hosting:
  • The next challenge host is the winner of the previous challenge.
  • Once your win is announced, go to Games, Competitions and Challenges and choose "Post thread"
  • In the top (title) line, enter Weekend Task #X - Your Topic
  • Copy / paste the sticky below, in the message area, and click "Post thread", at the bottom of the page.
  • Soon after noon GMT on the next Tuesday, declare the contest closed and post the sum of the votes for first, second, and third place. No ties, please.
  • If the winner can't be contacted and doesn't respond by Wednesday noon GMT, the second-place winner will host the challenge. If both are unavailable, the third-place winner will host.
