theme idea generation

I decided to look into photography competition themes to get some inspiration that would aid the group when generating our themes based around other similar festival ones.
Some are very simple and don't leave much to the imagination, nor are they ambigious enough for what we require. However in terms of acting as a spring board some of gthese really get you thinking of possible theme titles and ideas which we could develop when constucting our theme.
