Weekly Challenge #50 - Expressions

Weekly Challenge #50 - Expressions · 04:06 PM

Welcome to Weekly challenge 50.

EXPRESSIONS.

You see them every day, on the faces of those you live with, work with and play with.
And I am not just talking about people.
I will be looking for not only a technically good photo but one that meets the age old criteria of "a picture is worth a thousand words".
An example is attached below.
Good luck people.

Challenge 50 will close 9am (my time) Sunday March 23. 2008.

The rules are as always:

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.

Just re-reading the rules - Some clarification is needed as the last rule is conflicting with itself. "Any camera"... "must be Pentax"... "must be a regular member"..."non discriminatory"

Well is it any camera? Or must it be a Pentax???

Tried my SMC-A 50mm f2.0 at a riverbank fireworks display.

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.

I believe that rule has been in place from early challenges as they are just pasted across from week to week , so lets just go with the last bit.

You're right Russ and a similar expression or he may be saying "Not bath time again".

djm · 03-16-2008, 12:01 AM

Sorry GWP didn't mean to turn this into a cat thread, someone please post more people expressions.

KrisK10D · 03-16-2008, 01:21 AM

I'm not sure if this is an expression... I call it his 'old man face!'

lost · 03-16-2008, 05:48 AM

Stratman, I love the look on her face! Really looks like she is planning something.
