This week's challenge was chair.  At first Ricky wanted abstract and then changed it to any chair.  I put an old metal lawn chair in the yard and hoped for snow to make ridges to photograph across.  It didn't snow very much so this is what I was left with.  So the shot straight down was much more interesting.   

 The challenge this week was called Flat Lay, items arranged and then shot from above.  I "borrowed" the stones from the shop's neighbor.  I think this reminds me of those fossils that they cut in half and polish.   I guess now that the photo is done, I need to take the stones back to the neighbor's tree ring.  

 The challenge was long exposure. I tried limbs blowing in the wind but it was too windy.  I only ended up with a smear.  So tried night across the Pomona Dam.  The camera wouldn't work and went back to the house and then it worked.  Went north a mile and waited and waited for a car to come buy.  Finally Dennis drove down the road and turned around and drove past me so that I wouldn't freeze to death waiting for traffic.  Good sport. 

 The challenege this week is pick a word for the year and depict it in a photo.  I decided on Explore.  Explore new techniques and photo sites.
