Weekly Challenge 211 - Abandoned
Posted By: mde1970, 07-02-2012, 02:16 AM

Welcome to another installment of the PF Weekly Challenge (Thanks Casil403 for hosting last weeks challenge).

This week’s theme is 'abandoned'. It's a favourite theme of mine when it comes to buildings but can encompass many other forms.
So abandoned buildings, objects, people, places (or anything else which enters into the spirit of the word).

Challenge ends Sunday July 8th at 12:00 PM GMT-7 (MST).
Good luck everyone!


The fine print....
1. Post ONE photo (max 1024x1024).
2. The photo must portray an interpretation of the theme.
3. Post your single picture in this thread. If it's no obvious, explain what motivated you to take the picture and/or how you feel it represents the weekly theme.
4. The challenge is interactive. Any response is welcome.
5. The judge will pick the WINNERS and choose one of them to be the judge for the next week.
6. This challenge closes after 7 days, then allows for a day for the judge to choose the winners.
7. Any Pentax (or Samsung DSLR) camera will do.
8. Pictures can be from any time frame, not just within the week of the current theme.
9. In case the winner of a challenge is unable to become the judge for the next challenge, the winner will PM the #2 winner and pass the baton to that person to be the judge.

+1 on that image Bruce. Typically Africa kind of pic.
And your shot is equally stunning Susan (Slowpez). Mde 1970, you have my sympathy on this contest!

I just happened to have something that fits the theme this week. I was out with folks doing G+ Anniversary Photowalk and saw this abandoned factory of some sort.

Well, here's my entry. This is in the town of Bostwick, GA. I originally pegged another photo for this comp, but I ended up really liking the filmy look of this one, so here it is.

Thanks guys, yes it is a bit of a laugh Actually is at my Grandmother's old house, she died about 45 years ago. Went there for old times sake, as it is about to be demolished.

Two bottom Plow

This is a late 30's vintage Dearborn two bottom plow that came with my 1955 Ford tractor. Sold the tractor a few years back, but had to keep the yard art.
