September Photo Challenge

[lazyhawk]

Summer is officially over and Fall begins and with it “The Photo Challenge”.  Hope to have lots of participation.  Have Fun!

This is one of my own photos (Marlene/Lazyhawk), so be comfortable using, copying, etc.  I chose these gorgeous lilies to throw something different out there as we have had a street scene, a beautiful lake, and a barn; now we can try our hand at a floral still life.

Everyone paints, draws, collages, or arts in any way from the same photo. It is up to you how you interpret this photo. We always think it's great fun to see different views of the same subject. Let us see the world through your eyes. Who's up for this???

Please post your completed ACEO pieces in this thread at anytime you are ready and within the "Time Frame". You may enter as many ACEOs as you wish, but they must all be interpretations of the same photo.  They do not have to be listed to be eligible.

The winner will be chosen by poll votes. The winner will then be featured on the home page for a month.

Time Frame - Contest runs from September 10 – September 30 as follows, no exceptions:

1)  9/10/12 - Contest begins

2)  9/10/12 - Midnight ebay time on 9/19, Post your entries in this thread

3)  9/20/12 - Polls go up for voting.  Voting ends at Midnight 9/29/12

4)  9/30/12 - Winner announced and winning interpretation posted on home page.

Let's see how much participation we can have... something for everyone.. What medium do you use? Show us! Show us how creative your interpretation can be of "The Photo".

Any questions, please ask in this thread...

Have fun!

Congratulations, nautilus_queen! Great work! 🙂

Betsy, I will ask Cheryl about a swap, she is usually the one in charge of that.

Congratulations nautilus_queen!  I both loved and hated your painting -- it reminded me of the grasshoppers that devoured half a dozen of my lavender plants!!

I absolutely loved the winner's painting.  Congratulations, Nautilus Queen.  I had so much fun participating in this.  I can't wait until there is another photo challenge.  Everyone was so creative.
