The full moon was bright and beautiful but all the light you see here is from the camera flash. At least I finally got to use that witch costume I've had for a few years. Oh well! Come check out the results at <a href="http://republicofgeektopia.blogspot.com/2014/10/under-autumn-moon-adventurers-club-oct.html" target="_blank">The Republic Of Geektopia</a>.<br />

<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;"><span><i><b><span style="color: #6aa84f;">Would you like to join the Adventurer's Club?</span></b></i></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
"What is it?" you ask?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The Adventurer's Club is a monthly photo challenge.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The "theme" for the month is vague enough that you can complete the task
indoors if you're not a "drag your dolly out in public" kinda person.<br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: xx-small;"><i><span style="color: #741b47;"><b>ALL DOLL TYPES ARE WELCOME! </b></span></i></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
On the FIRST DAY of every month, I will reveal that month's theme. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />
<b>There will be participation prizes...</b><br />
these will be given out on a "number of months participated" basis.<br />
<span style="color: #cc0000;"><span style="color: black;">There will be a 6 month and 12 month participation prize.</span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #cc0000;"><span style="color: black;">The months will be cumulative, because I know life happens and sometimes we might miss a month.</span></span><br />
<span style="color: #cc0000;"><span style="color: black;">Although I'm thinking I might have to make an extra special prize for anyone who participates for 12 months straight! </span></span><br />
<span style="color: #cc0000;"><i><br /></i></span>
<span style="color: #cc0000;"><i>*NOTE*<br />January is a "wild card"... since I put this one up so late, you can complete this one at any time throughout the year.</i></span> If you would like to participate in the January Adventure, please do!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />You can find the theme on the Adventurer's Club tab, here:</div>

it doesn't matter, just as long as the resulting image is theme related!</div>

The August entry features a guest appearance from Leona Ozaki of <i>Dominion: Tank Police </i>fame. If you're familiar with the series, you know that Leona's favorite mode of transportation is her mini-tank, Bonaparte. Since there's not a 1/6 scale Bonaparte here at Chez Geek, Leona's been on the lookout for a suitable substitute and well, you'll have to see what happens <a href="http://republicofgeektopia.blogspot.com/2014/08/leonas-problem-adventurers-club-august.html" target="_blank">HERE</a>.<div>

Perhaps you're new to the Adventurer's Club...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;"><i><b><span style="color: #6aa84f;">Would you like to join the Adventurer's Club?</span></b></i></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
"What is it?" you ask?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The Adventurer's Club is a monthly photo challenge.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The "theme" for the month is vague enough that you can complete the task
indoors if you're not a "drag your dolly out in public" kinda person.<br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: x-small;"><i><span style="color: #741b47;"><b>ALL DOLL TYPES ARE WELCOME! </b></span></i></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
On the FIRST DAY of every month, I will reveal that month's theme. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />
<b>There will be participation prizes...</b><br />
these will be given out on a "number of months participated" basis.<br />
<span style="color: #cc0000;"><span style="color: black;">There will be a 6 month and 12 month participation prize.</span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #cc0000;"><span style="color: black;">The months will be cumulative, because I know life happens and sometimes we might miss a month.</span></span><br />
<span style="color: #cc0000;"><span style="color: black;">Although I'm thinking I might have to make an extra special prize for anyone who participates for 12 months straight! </span></span><br />
<span style="color: #cc0000;"><i><br /></i></span>
<span style="color: #cc0000;"><i>*NOTE*<br />January is a "wild card"... since I put this one up so late, you can complete this one at any time throughout the year.</i></span> If you would like to participate in the January Adventure, please do!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />You can find the theme on the Adventurer's Club tab, here:</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="http://dolladventurersclub.blogspot.com/p/about-adventurers-club.html">http://dolladventurersclub.blogspot.com/p/about-adventurers-club.html</a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Don't feel like you have to have a masterpiece photograph either,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
snap the shot with your cell phone, a point and shoot or a pro camera,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
it doesn't matter, just as long as the resulting image is theme related!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: xx-small;"><b><br /><span style="font-size: x-small;">How do you participate?</span></b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Simple!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
1. Take your photo that relates to the theme</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
2. Share that photo with me (via email, posting a comment with a link, etc), on our Flickr Group:</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

My email is: littlebearries@yahoo.com<br />

things you'd like to share!</span></b></i></div>

Perhaps you're new to the Adventurer's Club...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><i><b><span style="color: #6aa84f;">Would you like to join the Adventurer's Club?</span></b></i></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
"What is it?" you ask?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The Adventurer's Club is a monthly photo challenge.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The "theme" for the month is vague enough that you can complete the task
indoors if you're not a "drag your dolly out in public" kinda person.<br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><i><span style="color: #741b47;"><b>ALL DOLL TYPES ARE WELCOME! </b></span></i></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
On the FIRST DAY of every month, I will reveal that month's theme. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />
<b>There will be participation prizes...</b><br />
these will be given out on a "number of months participated" basis.<br />
<span style="color: #cc0000;"><span style="color: black;">There will be a 6 month and 12 month participation prize.</span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #cc0000;"><span style="color: black;">The months will be cumulative, because I know life happens and sometimes we might miss a month.</span></span><br />
<span style="color: #cc0000;"><span style="color: black;">Although I'm thinking I might have to make an extra special prize for anyone who participates for 12 months straight! </span></span><br />
<span style="color: #cc0000;"><i><br /></i></span>
<span style="color: #cc0000;"><i>*NOTE*<br />January is a "wild card"... since I put this one up so late, you can complete this one at any time throughout the year.</i></span> If you would like to participate in the January Adventure, please do!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />You can find the theme on the Adventurer's Club tab, here:</div>
