Weekly challenge #563 - Opportune Moments
Posted By: Kerrowdown, 12-07-2021, 04:21 PM

For me one of the delights of photography is when a situation just comes along, for which your almost totally unprepared for... like a bolt out of the blue and just screams capture me.

So for this week lets have some pure fun... your image that is totally unstaged and that has presented itself to you, as you stand there camera in hand. What I always call the "spontaneous belter", but then as you all know... I often see the lighter side of life when I'm not actively working on a shoot.

Entries close in one week 14th December 2021.

Enjoy being frivolous, this week it's not about technical standards, composition and the like... but just the immediate capture of that brief moment before it's lost forever.

Here's a few from me that I hope convey this challenge.

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 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.
