This week's challenge was do-over, any previous week with new photos.  I chose abandoned and B&W but after taking the photo, I liked the reddish rusty colors and left it in color. 

This week's challenge was to set the shutter to a long exposure and then move the lense out or in at the same time. 

The trick came when trying to coordinate my shutter hand with my lense hand.  Took several tries to get them going at the same time.  Good thing I used a tripod or it would have been moving not just refocusing.

Maybe this represents the feeling when you miss seeing the stop sign until the last moment...Panic.

I struggled with this week's challenge of board games/harmony.  In desperation this morning since the photo is due today, I took a picture of an old piano keyboard.  Sort of combined "board" and "harmony" in my mind.

 

This week's challenge is a mirror image created in photo shop.  The trees are at Chena Hot Springs, Alaska.  The stuff that looks like snow on the trees is really frozen steam from the springs.  We were there 4 days and the temps ran between -33 and -26.
