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. The rules are rather simple.
- 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 is about capturing something which is made by man and which is nestled in nature, i.e., in a natural setting. Grab your camera and tell it to find such a scene. It shouldn’t be too difficult! Man-made objects are everywhere and so is Mother Nature’s work. |

Our local Community Garden is man made, by Claudio Funari, who with hard work and imagination has used natural materials to create a garden from a neglected riverside plot of land. The two photographs show opposite sides of the trunk of a dead tree which he has carved and painted himself. Just one feature among many in this wonderful achievement. i.ibb.co/R9p7f8J/330-1.jpgi.ibb.co/Lk71jJC/330-2.jpgDennis |

Woman made in nature. All rocks being from the surrounding land. Weeds courtesy of the 4.1 inches of rain in less than 3 hours last week. Will be gone soon enough.  |

The city storm sewer system runs under the bottom of a ravine I frequently walk. The incongruity of a manhole cover in a forest trail was not wasted on a local who uses it to design and maintain different mandalas a couple times a week. So we have a natural setting, with a person-made object, decorated with natural elements laid out by a person.  Thanks for the theme Sepiana. I love this path and on seeing the theme this morning I knew immediately where I'd go today. |

A chain-saw carver recently gave a demo in a local park - no shortage of material as a result of the emerald ash borer and the tree removers leaving the stumps for carving. Here's one of their man-made creations in a naturalised corner of the park.  Tony |

Made long ago, now a favorite of the javelina in the hot summer months. Bats and rattlesnakes too. Quiz - what are the two most promenade greens you see? Can you name them?  |

Many pairs of feet have tramped out this path along the side of the South Downs, and today we added our contribution. i.ibb.co/bJnhfgt/Path.jpgBrenda |

The two photographs show opposite sides of the trunk of a dead tree which he has carved and painted himself. Just one feature among many in this wonderful achievement. Dennis Dennis, great interpretation of this theme -- two colorful and sharp images! Capturing your subject from opposite sides enables the viewers to fully appreciate the artist’s imagination and skills. |
