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 tonyw . (Thanks, Tony!) This is what the Tunnel Vision theme is all about in Tony's own words.

I'll start us off in a pedestrian tunnel of scaffolding at a construction site. Taken this morning for the theme.

Thank you Tony for such an interesting and challenging theme this week. I took the camera for a walk in the park this morning, not really expecting to get anything. However, this shot taken through the trees, seems to fit the theme (with a little help from Photoshop). i.ibb.co/5YrZ2sS/Tunnel-Vision.jpgDennis

Some great interpretations so far so here are a couple taken this morning before the forecasted rain! First is a view through a covered bridge and the second through a brand new culvert under the road (which meant our normally quiet road got the diverted traffic for a month which was a bit of a pain!).

The tunnel section on the hike to Crypt Lake in Waterton Lakes National Park, Alberta. August 2013. I'd like to do this hike once more in my lifetime. I keep delaying and that is not wise. Beautiful trail and scenery. 16 km in and out (total) with about 800 m climb.

The first picture is a tunnel under a slip road. The second, the other end of the tunnel where there are steps and a bridge over the main A19 road. The third picture is where a stream runs through a tunnel under a main road. It is very flooded down there today, so the tunnel is almost under water.

A Victorian engineer named Marc Brunel had a tunnel vision. The remarkable result (as the plaque explains) was the Rotherhithe Tunnel, originally opened as a pedestrian attraction complete with shops, etc., but today only accessed by Overground trains. i.ibb.co/4Y1zP5q/Tun-1.jpgi.ibb.co/ZYVVFgL/Tun-2.jpgBrenda

This is the Greenwich Foot Tunnel, one of two under the Thames in this part of London. The smaller section of tunnel in the first shot is a repair after bombing in World War II. A good challenge is to walk the tunnel without using the lifts at each end - 80 something steps at the north end, 100 steps at the south end. (I know - I puffed my way up the south (Greenwich) flight this morning.) i.ibb.co/QvtRdSM/Tun-3.jpgi.ibb.co/j6Mt1tp/Tun-4.jpgBrenda

The kind that elicits an emotional response from the viewers, that tells a story. I love its dream-like look!

Tony Tony, double tunnel vision with these two great shots. My favorite is the first one -- lines, shadows, symmetry, and . . . . a natural framing effect to boost.

These steps follow the path of an incline elevator closed down in the 1920s. Bob, great finding for this theme! I really like the angle you used to take your shot -- descending; it emphasizes the Tunnel Vision.

Thanks for acknowledging when this photo was taken! Hopefully you will come back with a timely photo. Looking forward to it!
