ATTENTION!!!
There is no longer a "next Sunday" posting deadline. You can grab your camera, take your photo, and post it in this thread any time you wish to.
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 suggested by billz . (Thanks, Bill!) |

This is hardly a "riot of color," but will have to do for now.  Lilies from our garden. Staged. My wife put these three stems in a vase in the house ... which I took back outdoors and set in a hosta plant in the garden. I am not too keen on the harsh lighting, but was also not happy with the ones in shade. Will keep looking for something more vibrant.  |

Without a reservation we weren't able to get a table inside for lunch today. But I did manage to take a couple of pictures.......you can read about the Boulder Dushanbe Teahouse here.

Colourful in the park.
Look better enlarged. Photos not altered except for cropping.

Those smart phones are just that, aren't they.
They will have zooms on them before too long.
Or am I behind the times again.
I would have liked to see your 'before' picture, Pete.
The after effect of your first picture, is stunning.

I really like how you used the hostas for background. Their green color makes the other colors pop up. |

Helen, right place/right time. Amazing colors and details. Such an intricate design! Glad you were able to take these shots. |
