Hi everyone, Would you like to participate in the Weekly Photo Challenge? Just take a photo that is your interpretation of the theme and post it in this thread. - Your photo(s) should be your own, i.e., they should not have been taken by someone else. - Photoshopping is allowed but should be kept to the basics only rather than a total transformation. - Grab your camera, experiment, and, most of all, have fun.  NOTE
This week’s theme was a suggestion by Rick (preeb ). Thanks, Rick!You have a lot of leeway. Your subject can be a street scene, a landscape scene, architecture, people, animals, etc., etc. Tell your camera you want your image to be wider than it is tall, i.e., shot in a horizontal orientation. Make your camera do the work!!!

Here's a landscape orientation of the landscaping at a nearby condo. (This morning's dew is still on the grass.)  Thanks for the theme Sepiana. |

I went for a drive this afternoon and wandered around the south end of the Porcupine Hills. Amazing place. I am too literal: these are indeed actual landscapes. Some adjustments, but not cropped. Format is as shot. The top two show immature baled barley that will be used for winter feed. The bottom scene was shot at an elevation of 5,000 feet looking toward the sun, so made a few adjustments in ACR and also applied the "auto haze removal" in PSE 2018.)    |

Saw these kite surfers in the distance a little while ago and wondered if I could get a shot of them......  |

Always fond of roads like this where there might be something interesting round the next corner. This was also a first experiment using my Tamron wide-angle lens (10-24) for a Nikon on my Fuji mirrorless camera with a very basic cheap adaptor ($30). Because the camera can't talk to the lens you have to manually focus and guess what the aperture setting is but the camera did seem to get the exposure right and I was happy with the result so now have a few more lenses to play with on my favourite camera!

Taken from today's walk, as I try to tackle The Saxon Shore Way on my own, discovering an ancient coastline with only an out-of-date guide book to help me. Made it to Hoo St Werburgh, and the bus back to the railway. The skeleton of the ship lies off the Shorne Marshes and the castle is at Cooling, dating back to the 14th century. i.ibb.co/1mLGXXs/Boat.jpgi.ibb.co/MsbkXVc/Wall.jpgBrenda |

We went out early this morning to try to catch the elite riders in the Bike London/Surrey 100 mile race, which attracts 70,000 cyclists. We missed the elite riders, but there were plenty of others! Afterwards, we took a stroll along the Thames at Hampton Court and watched the river traffic. i.ibb.co/jV0YrJ3/B-Ride.jpgi.ibb.co/sy9GMHk/T-Boat.jpgDennis |

First to submit an offering - taken during this morning's walk in the park. Dennis Dennis, and what an offering you submitted! Beautiful shot -- well-composed, colorful, and . . . it includes water reflections. |
