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

All areas from big to small have something they are known for good or bad, so show us something from Your Local Area


Here are the rules:
1. Shots need to be taken between Tuesday, after the new theme is posted 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![/QUOTE]

Thank you John!

I just returned home to some sad news.
Lisa Hopper aka Lavanut has pass away after a long fight with cancer.
She passed last night in her sleep.

She has been a long time supporter of WWPW and was a wonderful person.
I will miss her deeply...

Rest in Peace Lisa.

What sad news indeed.

Lisa was such a gentle soul, kind and supportive. And serious about her photography, always eager to learn and improve.

She stopped posting here in the WWWP thread, after she received the bad news and I have missed her ever since. I will continue to miss her.

Rest in Peace, Lisa. :love:

We followed each other on FB and was impressed by how positive Lisa remained throughout her battle with cancer. She will be missed.

My local area has a population with diverse interests, some expressed in slogans I don't understand on the back of a traffic sign:

You love words.. These always interest me.
I often ponder them and sometimes I'm surprised by the imagination and humor
sometimes need to google them ...:rolleyes:
