Weekly Challenge #65 - Blue and green
For this weeks contest I was trying to come up with a simple subject that hopefully everyone who wants to can participate in. So this weeks subject:

Blue and green

So what I am looking for are photos that are comprised of mostly, or all, blue and green elements. Simple enough? edit: To add some clarification, I would like blue and green in the picture. But there could be other colors as well. But I wanted the blue and green to stand out as the feature colors.

Please submit entries till midnight PDT on Saturday, July 26th, 2008.


The rules are as always:

The rules:
1. Post ONE photo (max 1000x1000).
2. The photo must portray an interpretation of the theme. It can be colour or B&W, your choice.
3. You can offer as much or as little additional information as you wish, but I'd be interested to know the location/event/whatever being depicted.
4. The challenge is interactive. Any response is welcome.
5. The judge will pick the WINNERS and chose 1 of them to be the judge for the next week.
6. The challenge runs for 7 days plus a day for the judge to choose the winners.
7. Any Pentax camera will do or a Samsung DSLR.

Previous Challenge Subjects:
1-Statues, 2-Wheels, 3-Speed, 4-Peace, 5-Survival, 6-Macro, 7-Mountains, 8-Children, 9-Post Processing, 10- Windows & Doors, 11-Sport, 12-Urban Landscape, 13-Wisdom, 14-Power, 15-Music, 16-Pathways, 17-Lines, 18-Storm, 19-Boats, 20-Water, 21 - Golden Hour, 22 - Natural Lighting, Portraits, 23-Motion Blur, 24-Simplicity, 25-Color, 26-Cars, 27-Repetition, 28-Wildlife, 29-Epiphany, 30-Contrast, 31-Pets, 32-Landscapes, 33-Coastal, 34-Churches, 35-Bridges, 36-Creation, 37-Still Life: Food, 38-At the Zoo, 39-Wide Aperture, 40-Merry Christmas, 41- Sunsets, 42-Action, 43-Fireworks, 44-Manipulated Light Portraits, 45- Advertising/Product Shot, 46- B&W Street Shooting, people/buildings, 47-Vanishing Point, 48-Reflection, 49-Tranquility, 50-Expressions, 51-S Curve, 52-Hands, 53-Shadows, 54-Your Favorite Beverage, 55-Barriers, 56-Perspective, 57-Night Scenes, 58-Zen-like...Water and Stone， 59-Modern architecture, 60 - Sunrises, 61-Red, 62- Action on water, 63 - Bodies in Motion, 64 - Ruins, 65 - Blue and green

Very nice start everyone. I'll have to dig through the old files. Haven't shot much for fun lately - all event, paid stuff

Hope I haven't misinterpreted the theme of this week's challenge. Mostly blue here, but no green.

Deleted my entry for this week, all blue, no green.

Ouch! I was afraid of that. I'll see what I can do to submit a proper photo. If I can't I will withdraw my entry. Thanks for the clarification, but I just read it wrong.
