Weekly Challenge #608 - Lines
Posted By: atupdate, 03-27-2023, 06:24 AM

Thanks to gump for hosting Challenge # 607. This week's subject is Lines. I'm repeating the very first Weekly Challenge I hosted in 2007. Lines are everywhere. Show me your most interesting Lines photo.

This challenge will end on April 3rd.

Rules:
1. Post ONE photo.
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 Ricoh 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.

Examples:









Good luck to everyone.

Tim

Nice challenge and I will go a “bit alternative”
I took this photo with my most recent addition to my collection, it is a Pentax K3 gunmetal but it is debayered. Therefore I can only take monochrome images with it at a way higher resolution though. I thought it was somewhere in the neighborhood of comparable to 52mp. In front of this body is a Irix 150mm f2.8 macro.
The leafs in this photo in itself are normal leafs but the lines in it makes it interesting.
I hope these lines qualify.

On long, dark winter evenings I often play and paint with light. That evening (~2.5 years ago) I had actually set myself the theme of "lines".
A bundle of black fiberglass flanged to a pocket lamp, 10 seconds exposure time, a steady hand - and the picture was ready.

I’m traveling without my Pentax this week. I have posted some examples of what I found in the sand today on Flickr. (All shot with a non-qualifying camera…)
