The challenge was initial inspired.  So I had to us VL.  This is the aurora borealis for Violet Light.  Taken with my cell phone. 

 Old Timey was this week's challenge.  Dennis use his civil war accessories to pose in the usual style for soldiers.   Then I turned the photo to Sepia tone and did a vignetted the image

 Two word rhyme.  I chose Red Thread. 

The challenge for this weeks was "Upside Down".  We couldn't get Rex to cooperate and show us his belly.  So I baked an upside down pineapple cake.  At least we get to enjoy the model. 

 Word Smash was the challenge.  Two words used together.  Mine is pancake, not Mickey Mouse.  

 The challenge was "Rhymes with Teak".  So I say leak rhymes with teak.  I had to take dozens of photos before I was quick enough to get the water drop just coming out of the faucet.  Glad to have a digital SLR so I could delete the unusable photos.  

 Lit from Below was the challenge.  This is the western sky lit from below the horizon as the sun goes down.
