Due to the overwhelming popularity of this contest (: the judges have decided to extend it through April 27 (next Friday) so that any of you late bloomers can get your entries in.
If you think this content is too difficult, then maybe this will help:
I came up with the idea one night when I took the dog out for his walk and the sky was incredibly bright and filled with stars. The song “Vincent” by Don McClean came to mind. In fact I couldn’t get it out of my head for the rest of the evening. If I had owned a camera that could capture the incredible beauty of the night, I would have taken a picture of the “starry, starry night”, but I didn’t. However, in an effort to get that song out of my head, I began to think of other songs that brought a picture to mind. I could think of a lot of them. I’m not going to write the titles here, because it would be unfair to other contestants and it would also mess up the second part fo this contest, which will be announced and begin on May 1.
I’ll keep my fingers crossed for you 'till 27th (for me too!). I don’t know anything about the second part, but your idea for the contest is brilliant. It’s maybe so new as a concept that it may take a little more time to evolve.
