Weekly Photography Challenge Thread (see first post rules and then the poll at top before entering)

I'm drawing a blank.

Had an awesome idea, but weekend projects got in the way of setting it up.
Everywhere I go, I see repetition, but nothing I can "see" as composed to shoot.

 

My submission.

 

Thanks Ben, I went back and forth on which to submit. My wife said B&W, I like the color a little better though.

 

I'm in, non hdr. From earlier this week. Repetition in power poles, washboard in the road, and fence line.

 

ISO 100
18mm
f/16
1/320

That pole was a little bent, its not the lens... ha

 

This was my idea that didnt work out, was gonna do a long exposure of a running big one with stars in motion at night. I may still try it cuz it'd be cool.

 

Books...books everywhere! Coulda' done the repeat of a set of volumes or something or the stacks all lined up. Probably didn't have your camera, though.
That's one thing that I noticed with this challenge, there's a lot of repetition in all sorts of places!

 

I really like this TJ! Nice work!

 

now that the challenge is passed and i didn't get my shot, I wanted to take a picture of a vehicle wheel with everything in focus, but the wheel blurred because it is rotating. I just couldn't find a way to do it.

 

Official Entries...

 

What a fantastic group of shots! Love the interpretations! The oil derrick is a damn good one! Good luck to all shooters!

 

how well would that work with a slower shutter speed to have the wheel blurred? I don't have much experience with panning shots.

 

It wouldn't take much of a slower shutter speed. Move the camera with the vehicle to keep it in focus and the slower shutter speed would blur the moving wheels.

 

Thanks. I'll have to play with it some time. I really wanted to get that in this week, but work got in the way.

 

Sorry guys! I'm just sitting in front of my computer for the first time today, and am sick as a dog with the flu. Will review right now and post the winner!

 

And the winner is!!??

TJ!

I found it most reflected the theme, and was a well composed, and for reasons I cannot explain, emotional shot. Maybe it's just the fever, but it reminded me of my late grandmother, and gave me the chills.

Congrats!

 

Congratulations TJ!! I really liked that shot.

 

Wow, thank you very much. I am glad you were able to connect with the shot.

PM on its way to Monte.
