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


We did this a couple of years ago and I found the results interesting... You can do all, 2 or just one depending on how the week goes. So show us some Dot, Dashes and/or Diagonals

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!

Here are some natural dots, dashes and diagonals I found in a common baby spinach leaf at 5x macro...

Thank you. Had to set the blinds just right to get the shadows. Happens throughout the year. Oh, and clean the kitchen. :-)

Stuck in tourist traffic in downtown Petaluma yesterday, I noticed lots of yellow diagonals and dots in the middle of the street.

I kept on the lookout for Ds, Ds, and/or Ds all week and didn't see an arrangement that I liked enough. Other people's Ds were fun to look at, though.

I had a bunch of dandelion shots from the weekend that I thought I would post, before I ran into this beautiful mural trapped behind a chain-link fence.

The "exploding" yellow flowers shot was very well executed. Looks great.
