Human-powered travel: Our May editor's challenge is open for submissions
Photo: Mitchell Clark Our May editor's challenge is now open for submissions. The theme this month is human-powered travel, so we're looking for photos of people moving through the world under their own power, using means of transportation mundane or exotic. Some examples: people walking, hiking, skateboarding, biking, roller-blading hand pedaling – whatever gets them places without a motor. The challenge is open to photos taken at any time. The last day for entry will be Saturday, 17th May (GMT). IMPORTANT: Images MUST include a title and a caption of at least 25 words to be eligible. Viewers want to know the story behind your photo. We will consider both photos and captions when selecting our winners, so make sure to tell us that story! Visit the challenge page to read the full rules and to submit your photos for consideration. Please remember to include a caption or your submission will be deemed ineligible, and we'll ask you to resubmit it. Visit the challenge page to read the rules and submit your photo After you've submitted your photo to our editor's challenge, be sure to check out some other community-run challenges. You can vote for your favorites in RHES' "Simple subject" challenge and, starting Monday, Dr.Lex's "A Big Year 2025" challenge. You can also submit entries to RHES' "Look What I Have for You!" and Dr.Lex's "Fortnight 51" challenges.
