30th of June 2008 (Mon), 08:25
The theme for this week is "Simplicity." Interpret this any way you like, as different and unusual interpretations are always welcome.

Here are the rules:

1. Shots need to be taken between sunrise Monday and sunset the following Sunday. Because this activity is supposed to encourage us to get out and shoot, please don't post old shots from your archives. Crummy shots and art are equally welcome -- just get out & shoot, and then share!

2. Post your shots at any time during the week.

3. Post a maximum of two shots if you're uploading them to POTN (i.e., attaching them). You can post more than two if you're linking to shots that are not hosted by POTN (i.e.,embedding them), but keep within POTN rules. Also keep within POTN rules about size. A copy of the size rules can be found here: http://photography-on-the.net/forum/...d.php?t=194511 (http://photography-on-the.net/forum/showthread.php?t=194511)

An index to previous weeks can be found here: http://photography-on-the.net/forum/...d.php?t=170603 (http://photography-on-the.net/forum/showthread.php?t=170603)

That's it! Have fun!

Dozer -- Peaceful and relaxing and comforting. Looks like low humidity as an extra bonus.

Nz -- At first I thought I was looking at grains of sand on a rim of some sort. Then I finished reading your text and remembered -- of course, it's winter! I'd love to see some more cold reminders.

John B -- Nice interpretation. I never would have thought of that. Love the lighting on the thread.

kjmac -- Welcome to the Forum and to WORLD WIDE PHOTO WEEK!!! Again, I never would have thought of that. Looks like the same type of spigot that we have, but your hose is newer.

Its done with a flash extension cable (off shoe cord), which helps to control the light. ;)

:) We don't lock the old threads... It is interesting, but sometimes we get posts weeks after. Fun.

OK, SIMPLE MINDS

Monty -- Hey, thanks. Now I know where our chickadees went. ;)

Tater -- My car is NEVER that clean! Interesting lighting.

Dave -- Yummers. Now I'm hungry again.

Joayne -- Very colorful. The expression on the 2nd one reminds me of a titmouse.

Beautiful shots once again everyone.

For this weeks theme I didn't go shooting something specific as I had planned to do lots of shooting anyway. But I am taking part of the JPEG July challenge as well so any of my shots could fall into the "Simplicity" theme as they have been unedited (with the exception of resizing and small USM applied). So here are two favorites from this week.

My daughter gazing at a Carpenter Bee while swimming.

And some flowers from my parents deck.

Mine either Barb,The car is only 1 week old and belongs to my brother inlaw hence why it is so clean :)
The shot was taken early evening with the sun low on the horizon and the wheel was in direct sun light

Mike -- I'm hypnotized by your daughter's expression. Keep looking at it.:D

Dave (Condyk) -- Good to have you back. So is the sensor being cleaned even as we watch?
