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


Let's photograph Opposites

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!

Very classy!

Always so good!

I'm not sure just what pairs are true opposites. Some may be only alternatives. Straight and curved? Automated and manual? Vegetables (good for you) and ice cream (an indulgence)?

This one illustrates natural vs. constructed, which is at least a polarity.

... Comparing Apples to Oranges

A saying I often hear when it sounds like a comparison is not a comparison of equal value... or opposite of equal

Nice-looking picture, but could you point me to the ice? Presumably it has something to do with the black things.

Thanks, OhLook. The shapeless things in the front are "cubes" of ice. I just grabbed a handful from a cooler next to me and plopped it on the edge of a gas "fire-pit". We were having a backyard grad party with appropriate social distancing in place.
