    • Lens-Artists
      This challenge was set up by four blogging pals to replace the WordPress Weekly Photo Challenge which ended abruptly in 2018 and to which many of us looked forward to. Each Saturday at noon EST we will publish a photo challenge similar in form to the now-defunct WPC. If you choose to participate, please make sure to tag your post with the name of our group LENS-ARTISTS so that all of the responses can be found together in the WP Reader. Please also include a link to the challenge moderator’s original post (links to the posts within the Reader will not work correctly). One of our 4 moderators will host the challenge each week.
