Every week we select a new theme, and then go out and shoot that theme. This week the theme is Look Down, Show Us What's on the Ground. As always be as imaginative/creative as you like when interpreting the theme, creativity is what we're looking for.

Let's find some interesting things on the ground this week!

Here are the rules:
1. Because this activity is supposed to encourage us to get out and shoot, please don't post old shots from your archives.

2. Shots need to be taken between Tuesday, after the new theme is posted and the following Monday by sunset (Whenever that is for you).
3. Snapshots and art are equally welcome -- just get out & shoot, and then share!
4. Post your shots at any time during the week.
5. 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 takes a special kind of weirdness to step barefoot in fresh curb paint.

With temps near 100 and no rain in several weeks the red bud tree is stressed and shedding.

Ground cover, a succulent with small leaves and flowers, in the rock garden. It attracts bees, not shown. The bees were camera-shy this morning.

Nice. Could be taken from the air, flying over a canyon fully of beautiful flowering trees.


... and, from the good old days, Canon F-1n, FTb, Mamiya 645 (m1000s), etc. -- Rob

Looking way down from a high hiking trail on Thursday. The ground, the ocean beyond the ground, and some people sitting on the ground, also looking down.

Spotted this group of fungi that popped up overnight at the base of our old weeping cherry tree.

Looking down at the reward I gave myself after
a beautiful walk in the hot sun. A raspberry
ice cream sandwich.

Marchers on the ground at the NY pride parade - surrounded by a groundswell of emotions.
