If whiplash isn’t enough and you need to find more…sometimes a challenge can be just the creative inspiration you need to try something new, or just try something. There are lots of them all over the internet - here are a few. They also offer the opportunity to see how others have responded to the same challenge, as most have galleries. You’re not tied as with a swap, but can participate or not according to your own whim and schedule. You may well know some of these - so please add others in the comments:
