Weekly Challenge 313: "Tension"
Posted By: zantaphia, 02-01-2015, 11:40 AM

Hi

The theme that I have chosen for this week is: Tension

Post your best interpretation of the theme in any form.

The challenge will run until Sunday Feb. 8th (in your timezone).

The fine print:
This challenge is Pentax-only.

Everyone is eligible to send in their best interpretation of the given theme, as long as the photo is taken with a Pentax/Samsung camera. Themes can be subject-oriented or technique-oriented.

Rules
1. Post ONE photo (max 1024x1024).
2. The photo must portray an interpretation of the theme.
3. Post your single picture in this thread and explain what motivated you to take the picture and/or how you feel it represents the weekly theme (especially if it's not obvious).
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 runs for 7 days plus an additional day for the judge to choose the winners.
7. Any Pentax (or Samsung DSLR) camera can be used.
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, they will PM the #2 winner for that person to be the judge

Under Tension The droplets weighed down the grass blades, and as soon as a breeze shook the droplets loose, the blades sprang back to their unweighted posture.

Hello,

Here's my interpretation of 'Tension'.
A double one:
- the electrical pylon
- the stormy sky

Tension is in the air.

It's the bottom of the ninth inning with the score tied with 2 outs and the winning run on 3rd base (Dustin Pedroia Boston Red Sox.) You can cut the tension with a knife.---charliezap

Tension

On Sunday, my daughter and I went outside to play in the snow. As I pulled her around the yard on her sled, she said “Stop...I pull you...sit!” So I did.

The tension in the rope is only surpassed by the tension on her face.

DMZ near Seoul, South Korea. You can't take pictures of North Korea itself. There are a half dozen soldiers standing around with AK47s to make sure.
