Weekly Challenge #214 - Physical Strain! · 11:44 AM

Welcome to another Weekly Challenge!

With the Olympics all around, I thought it would be nice to have a related theme: physical strain. Show me some sweat! Well.... not literally, but nonetheless....

Challenge ends Tuesday August 7th at midnight PST.

Have fun and make my job judging really difficult!

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.

Previous 10 Challenge Subjects: 203 - Two of a Kind, 204 - Beyond the Beauty Strip, 205 - Color Monochromes, 206 - Electricity, 207-Stop Action, 208-The path of water, 209 - Song Lyrics, 210 - Center It, 211-Abandoned, 212 - Trees, 213 - Fences

Some to get the ball rolling!

Wow, somebody has really got their work cut out for them judging this one. That someone would be you Rense.

Nice idea for a challenge theme, Rense. I like this one and hope you do, too. The muscles aren't too big, but they were straining!

Hint: - Go for the red white and black -they are my home team - and won - it is so satisfying knowing that you are backing winners!

Stirring the kettle corn, I wouldn't think it would be so strenuous, I prefer eating it.
