# 265 - beauty of things imperfect and transient
Posted By: tessfully, 11-19-2013, 03:56 PM

Thank you Mark (mecrox) for the inspiring challenge last week and for awarding me the honour to host this week.

This week I would like to bring in an aesthetic ideal --- the beauty of things imperfect and/or transient. I have included two examples that are my attempts towards this ideal. Both images portray imperfection and also transience as life ebbs and flows. I think that it is within the flow I found beauty.

But, please interpret the theme in a way that is meaningful to you.













This challenge will run through Sunday November 24th and close by midnight GMT (which is EST +5, CST +6 and PST +8).

Rules are as follows:

1. Post one photo (max 1024 X 1024).
2. The photo must portray an interpretation of the theme.
3.Post your single photo in this thread. If it's not obvious, explain what motivated you to submit the photo and how you feel it represents the weekly theme.
4.The challenge is interactive. Any response is welcome.
5.The judge will pick the winner, who will then host and judge the next week's challenge.
6.The challenge closes after seven days.This allows a day for the judge to pick the winners.
7. Any Pentax (or Samsung) DSLR is acceptable.
8. Photos can be from any time frame, not just the week of the current challenge.
9. In case the winner of a challenge is unable to become the judge of the next week's challenge, the winner will PM the #2 winner and pass on the baton to that person to host and judge the next week's challenge

Thanks Tamia. I am finding this really difficult because the submissions are all so outstanding and meaningful. Hope to have the results up by morning.

Echoes Tamia, I'm so very glad I don't have to judge this one.
