Bluelight weekly photography contest Round 29: Creeks, Streams and Rivers

[Raving Loony]

I like this one but I'm sure I can do better, especially as it is undersized.

edit: uploaded a larger image.

 

[MazDan]

nice photos everyone.

MazDan, from where did you take that photo? A helicopter or something?

No not a helicopter.......Im gunna keep you guessing for a while.......lol.

hmmm...........nah i wont cos QE picked it actually.........damn you QE.......lol


Its actually a massive mud hole in my backyard that i drained recently and filled with dry soil in an attempt to lessen the ammount of mud at my house after some recent rains.

This and another 4 or 5 shots are what happenned when the water was allowed to drain out............This is the only one that really fits the theme but some of the others have some amazing swirls and colours in them..........I was thrilled with the way they turned out. This is probably the best for disguising the fact its a close up.

 

[QuestionEverything]

Aw, sorry, but that's the aspect I really like of your photo. You really can't tell whether it's extremely close up or extremely far away. I wasn't really sure. Nicely done. : )

 

[IAMTHOUGHTS]

mazdan you photo makes me dizzy. i cant tell whats up and whats down. lol

 

[~*geNeRaTiOn E*~]

this is going to be another excellent round.

BA, pennywise and raving loony, i love the colors in your pics.

it's gonna be tough to pick just 1.

SA, theme suggestion: Ice

 

[SA]

L2R, would Ice be a better theme for the winter season perhaps? I'm holding off on a couple of strictly summer themes too, that's why I ask.

Any objections on the next theme being Birds?

Umm, actually its winter right now.

 

[L2R]

it doesnt have to be the next theme. i would just suggesting it for the list.

winter or not, i'm seeing no snow.

 

[SA]

I kind of forgot that you guys have your seasons backwards, lol. We should do Ice twice then, six months apart. You've got an ice rink nearby, right L2R?

 

[L2R]

not really, but the local refrigerator is within cycling distance. you know there's a total of 12 fridges in all of australia. kids hang out around them. kinda reminiscent of america's "malls".

 

[Raving Loony]

Any objections on the next theme being Birds?

Nope and I've got a few good ones for that could work in with that theme.

 

[MazDan]

Silly Alien, In all honesty I dont think that the themes should be based on whats happenning in any specific part of the world at the time.

Maybe chuck all the ideas in a random selector and whatever comes out comes out.

If its ice and its summer all round the world then thats the way it is...........so you take some ice cubes and arrange em and take pics.

The only thing that bugs me a bit is when its sort of made a point of saying that its done to fit in with a specific part of the world.........such as the street performer thing......... Just chuck em up and we respond with pics.......

RL-

Did you build that town in your backyard? Does Mr. Rogers summer there? It looks freakin perfect. Like almost creepy perfect. No, I love the shot. I want to live there.

 

[MazDan]

No, although it is man-made. Its a artificial stream at Animal Kingdom in Disney World in Orlando.
