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


Show us an image that is Backlit

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!

It is for now, but it is drying out fast. According to the Fire Weather Research Lab folks at San Jose State University the FMC (fuel moisture content) is at record lows this spring and there's no rain in the forecast for the next 10 days.

Yes, it looks like we are back in the drought cycle. We are about 10° over our average temperatures suddenly. It had been a cool Spring, but I don't remember what rain looks like :rolleyes:

Bringing up the rear of the parade of botanical subjects, a small conifer in late-afternoon sun. Not much is in focus here. The image suggests to me sleepiness or some kind of dimmed awareness.
