Weekly Challenge #40 - Merry Christmas
Posted By: fletcherkane, 12-10-2007, 07:35 PM

Alright, this one seems to be a no brainer for a topic, considering the time of year. So, give me your best interpretation of this topic. Also, so as not to offend, I will gladly accept anyone's interpretation of "Happy Holidays" as well...

The contest will run until Midnight EST, Monday, December 17. Good Luck.
Here, as always are the rules....

The rules:
1. Post ONE photo (max 800x800) as a response to THIS post.
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 camera will do but it must be a Pentax. Just use any camera you want. No discriminating anyone as long as the shooter is an active member here.

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 Aperature.

Good luck to all!

Some great shots guys! A white Christmas with snow and all, as in Schmikey's great shot, would be an unbelievable experience to us down here, who usually experience heat wave conditions on Christmas Day.
How about some more of that Christmas Winter?

By right clicking on and looking @ the properties (explaining what I did so you can do it next time too) of the pretty red X I see you linked the img tag to the URL of the HTML page that contains your image. ...you need to put the image URL within the [IMG]...[/IMG] tag, not the HTML page that contains the image.

i.e. http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2353/2107319255_ec426c187e_o.jpg
not http://www.flickr.com/photos/21230369@N05/2107319255

Taken with Pentax K10D and 10-17mm (Fisheye).
Just a little Nativity scene that is sitting on our sideboard.
