    You start out with a picture. One person takes that picture and manipulates it in any way they want.Once they are satisfied, they submit it to the other person. That person then also manipulates it, being they can take a certain part of it, use it as a whole for something else, etc. There can be rules like you have so many days to complete it, you have to use a certain percentage of the picture, etc.
    Generally I like 2 week limit and you can use as much of the other person's picture as you like. Here is one of my very first matches.

    The flower and the dad and kid were both taken from the other person's volley.

    Wow so many of you are so talented.

    I sing. I was invited to sing solo at the United Nations Youth Conference a few years ago in New York. That was a pretty huge accomplishment for me.

    Couple of my talents :)

    Photography: http://www.patrickbowman.com/
    Photoshop: http://retoucher.patrickbowman.com/

    I don't have a lot on my retouching site right now just because I have tons of other work on my plate ATM. Lot's of my old retouching work got corrupted when a HD died on me before I made my website. I guess that is another talent as well... I wrote all the html and css on my site :)
    I was a studies photojournalism in college. Loved it. Nice work.

    I have been in music all my life. Played the flute and piccolo all through school. I am now "attempting" to teach myself the guitar.
    I cannot sing though! LOL I sound horrible....:laugh: I'll leave the singing to some of you other guys.

    The talent I am most passionate about is painting....acrylic painting on canvas specifically. I also like to do pencil or charcoal drawings every once in a while.
