Since I was ill I didn't get to enter the next challenge but from what I have seen there are some wonderful shots out there so everyone make sure and do the rounds and see the talent.
However I was feeling better today and we had a heat wave so I did get out and do some shooting. As usual I took more picture then necessary but some I really like. I did some in black and white and messed around with some I didn't like in by looking at them a different way. The first couple are my favorites.
I liked the starkness of this. The lone tracks passing by the empty swing. Bleak
Another from the playground. They just look so sad not used.
A little color makes it look more inviting and you can see the footsteps have gone right up to the swings.
Now this tree I saw from up on the hill and I just loved the way the shadow looked. I have it done 3 different ways. I like all 3. It was in my favorite cemetery. First in color
Next black and white.
And last framed. Anyone know of a good program on line to put frames on?
Still in the cemetery this is one I messed with the color but I really like the effect.
The next 2 are kind of 2 different views. Are you near sided or far sided?
And then last one I would have maybe entered in the community photo contest if I hadn't been so sick and able to get out. I took this shot because this reminds me of my hometown from when I was young in the winter. Not many new houses around and gentle rolling corn fields put to bed for the winter. I decided old fashion album edges looked best with this. And of course black and white to date it from my younger days.

I enjoyed seeing each and every one of these, the tree in the cemetary really was something. Thanks for posting them and glad you got out to shoot. It looks so cold there, I wouldnt have gone out! Brrrr!
These are very good. I really like the ones with the playground equipment. Adds some pop though color. I'm glad you are feeling better.

Yup...you're talented alright! It's so funny too...cuz just TODAY...I was thinking about shooting the empty playground stuff in the snow for the very same reasons. You and I are drawn to similar shots. Only thing is...
Yours are SO much better!!
