#223 - Juxtaposition
Posted By: pentaximus, 11-11-2012, 11:37 AM

Welcome to another Weekly Challenge
Thanks to reeftool for hosting a great challenge last week!

This week's challenge theme is "juxtaposition."

Juxtaposition--an act or instance of placing close together or side by side, especially for comparison or contrast.

If you are in need of inspiration there is an inactive thread from a couple of years ago started by Javier that has some super examples of Juxtaposition.

This should allow shooters of all different genres to cull their archives for an entry. I know you guys will make this tough for me!

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 not 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.

This challenge will end Monday, November 19 at 7:00 AM Eastern time.

Previous 12 Challenge Subjects:, 211-Abandoned, 212 - Trees, 213 - Fences, 214 - Physical Strain, 215 - The Daily Grind, 216 - Colors of nature, 217 - Heavy Industry, 218 - Wisdom, 219-Surprise, 220 - Blue, 221-Vanishing Point, 222-Motion

The balloon man of Provincetown.

This was taken at a bus stop in Provincetown Ma.The man does balloon animals and the others were waiting for the bus. I like the expression of the woman sitting next to him. 1/125 sec f/9 400 ISO K5 with Pentax 18-250 at 85mm.--charliezap

Just checking in here to remind everyone that this challenge runs through the weekend and closes Monday morning at 7:00am Eastern time.

All of the entries are great, but we certainly have room for more. Don't be afraid to jump in here, folks! The worst that can happen is you shame your family name for decades to come, but on the other hand you just might win...

Not really found anything I like, so I'll post this. Not sure what to call it.
