Every week we select a new theme, and then go out and shoot that theme. This week the theme is GREEN. As always be as imaginative/creative as you like when interpreting the theme, creativity is what we're looking for.


Grab your camera and get a photo of something GREEN...


Here are the rules:
1. Shots need to be taken between Monday Sunset and the following Monday by Sunset (Whenever that is for you ). Because this activity is supposed to encourage us to get out and shoot, please don't post old shots from your archives. Snapshots 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: IMAGE POSTING RULES
That's it! Have fun! As always be as imaginative/creative as you like when interpreting the theme, creativity is what we're looking for.
An index to previous weeks can be found here: POTN WORLDWIDE PHOTO WEEK INDEX

That's it!
Have fun!

Yay!! Hanging out with you was really great, Jo! :love:

And I love your butterfly pic. They're so hard to shoot but this one is sharp across the range. Truly well done!

Your dry and wet green pic looks almost surreal, John. It's great.

Don, that's a beautiful sculpture. I think it's glass, right?

This IS a pretty surreal photo. Lots of layers and shades of greens. I just checked out the specs on the photo and was surprised that this was shot at a pretty wide angle. You must have been right up against the greens.

I would love to see a much wider shot, if that is at all possible.


CC always welcome.

Hahaha, well, it is a Tour de France bicycle after all. It says so on the frame, remember?  :p :lol:
I love having met you, Jo. The only thing I regret is that you're not living around the block!

Have a safe flight home tomorrow. :love: :love:

Ok, here is another angle of the same area, same day but I didn't choose it because of the rocks and seats..

A sample of our local urban blight: tops of adjacent newspaper vending boxes. Not pretty, but they're green!

From the same walk, a neon sign in a bar window, afternoon. Lots of reflections. I wish the G15 had a polarizing filter instead of an ND filter.

The reflections ruin the shot. But wait . . .

When I slid the contrast slider over to almost maximum, it knocked out those reflections.

Those greens are so intense. Did they really look that way?
