The Photo Rehab is a great community to share photos, learn new techniques, discover new talents, and connect.
In December 2014, after completing the Photo101 course, I opened the Photo Rehab Event in this blog, a ‘healing clinic’, for all of us who love photography (hobbyists, amateurs, pro-shooters and enthusiasts) who missed the course and daily interaction with other photobloggers.
I am always inspired by the photos shared within our community of photobloggers, and here you can see their skills translated into stunning images.
Here are the photos of week 31.
This is the wrap up from all participants. You will see their latest pictures, but I encourage you to follow the links below to visit their blogs. You won’t regret. You will find a mix of beautifully crafted images and words.
Think about this: there are bloggers full of ideas and creativity, but who perhaps are not yet using their full potential to openly express their views via words and images. It is worth uncovering this wealth of potential. If you feel like that, I hope that these photos will inspire you to follow your dreams, whatever it may be.
The stage is theirs!

HOW TO JOIN THE PHOTO REHAB
Time: The Clinic is open 24 x 7
Camera: You can use any camera, from DSLR, mirrorless, compact, to smartphones.
Theme: Bring your creativity and photograph a theme of your liking in B&W or Color. With or without edition. We like learning techniques as well, if you want to share it with everyone.
Who can join: Anyone can join. All you need is passion. Passion to speak up through images – or words, if you may want to add your thoughts to it as well – showing what you see and how much that is important to you.
You can do a self-examination. If you detect any of the following symptoms, as carefully described by Albert from the blog Trigger Happy, come and join us: “Withdrawal symptoms may include the incessant need to carry your camera everywhere with you, the need to wake up in the wee hours to take photos during the golden hour, and checking up on others you met during the course to see what their newfound knowledge has brought fruit to.”
How does it work:
- Shoot a photo.
- Prepare your post and publish it. Remember to Pingback to this post and to use the tag #PhotoRehab so that we can find your post in the WP reader.
- Add your photo to the link provided below. In this way, you expose your photo to the other participants and the audience of the Photo Rehab.
- Here is the link to add your photos. Knock the wall of the Clinic… and click on the image below:

And today is the day!! Yay
Welcome to The Clinic!
I love the wrap up, you do a great job! Thanks.
Thank you my dearest!! I have fun doing this.
That’s good to hear that it’s fun for you, otherwise why do it?
Yes, that would not ever be an option!
[…] deecided this one should be part of the Photo 101 Rehab. Check it […]
Loved the Brisbane Wheel and those sepia-ish flowers 🙂 Lovely shares, Lucile!
So glad you like it, Jo! Makes me happy!
HA! I bet someone comes to visit my site just to see what you meant by that bathroom!!! Too funny! But then, it is a big bathroom.
This is a cool post, I like the idea of seeing all the photos like this.
Hahaha!! I’ll charge you for the free Marketing!!
Well, I’m still impressed with your description.
Thanks Badfish! The idea is to make you all happy and to spread your talents on the blogosphere.
Well, thank you once again. And you are certainly spreading the information to various others that would not otherwise be attracted!
And now…you’re getting into the marketing business!
Lucile, you clever lady, you! Your own inspiration to start the rehab clinic, then to feature us as YOUR inspiration, well, it’s just inspirational! Thank you and thank you!
You’re so sweet! Thank you, Terri. I really mean it.
Thank you yet again for this showcase, I am convinced the work in the rehab is getting better every week, outstanding!
That means you all are excelling every week! Thanks!
Perhaps a virtuous circle then, I do find the support and encouragement of our virtual (and in some cases, real) community a really positive part of my life…
So true, Andy. I’ve always been an early stage user of social media, but with restrictions to privacy for not liking what I saw most of the times. I am still not a believer of Facebook as a social place. What I have never imagined is that blogging would allow me to express myself but would be mostly about experiencing a community. And that’s surely very remarkable and positive.
I have to second Lucile on this…I’m not much on social media, and I never imagined blogging to be what it has become for me…a community
you guys rock…every week
[…] And how about those perhaps less famous people, who I don’t know personally, but their books or blogs? Some bloggers may even be reading this post now, not even knowing how much they inspire me and teach me everyday. These are people who, no matter how simple or complex their actions, have had the courage to transform their lives and of others, showing the same determination and focus to follow their dreams. They are a source of constant inspiration. I would need to ping back many of you, and mention many book titles here, but would have no photos. I found an alternative solution though, with this post.
