For this weeks contest I was trying to come up with a simple subject that hopefully everyone who wants to can participate in. So this weeks subject:

Blue and green

So what I am looking for are photos that are comprised of mostly, or all, blue and green elements. Simple enough? edit: To add some clarification, I would like blue and green in the picture. But there could be other colors as well. But I wanted the blue and green to stand out as the feature colors.

Please submit entries till midnight PDT on Saturday, July 26th, 2008.


The rules are as always:

The rules:
1. Post ONE photo (max 1000x1000).
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 Pentax camera will do or a Samsung DSLR.

This was the one of the shots that really made me appreciate the ISO capabilities and DR of the K20D.

Taken in April at the Cincinnati Zoo - Cincinnati, Ohio with F*300 and K20D.

Damn Bud that's a keeper Nice shot

[Fritz]

Ouch! I was afraid of that. I'll see what I can do to submit a proper photo. If I can't I will withdraw my entry. Thanks for the clarification, but I just read it wrong.

No problem, it's my fault for not explaining myself better. The good news is there is still plenty of time to find one that works.

Wow Bud! That is positively psychedelic. Makes me want to stare at it while listening to Moody Blues music in an altered state.

Well, I guess there's no need to enter this one.....especially after seeing Bud's peacock. There is nothing in my bag that even comes close to that one.
