Yet another interesting month and another interesting challenge. Congrats to all who participated. If you didn't pick up a camera and get some shots in...then take a few moments and look at the photos.
Tonia offered us an interesting challenge. She's also chosen the shot she felt most fulfilled the challenge she had in mind.
Tonia:
"This is the shot that I am drawn to over and again. It is simple, elegant, keeps the challenge in mind and the overall direction to be concerned with composition when taking the photo." Congratulations to Dannielle!
Honorable Mention, Gayle:
Horticulture Building archway, also by Dannielle. "Since Tonia ruled out straight up shots for this challenge, it is nice to see...a unique angle which enhanced the POF (pt of focus)...stellar architectural shot!...appealing composition,too!...(I,too,love architectural details)"
Honorable Mention, Doyle:
I love this shot, sweeping curves, aesthetically appealing...great angle. Intermixing the fine details of the leaf-like hangings with the broad, solid walls makes for a most pleasing composition.

Again, judging is not easy at all. Judging is tough. I'd much rather be taking photos than judging them. I just want to say thank you for those that participated and we're all honored that you posted your photos. I'd also like to thank our judge Tonia for her challenge and time to select. Thank you, Tonia!
So, Dannielle? Can you give us all a challenge?

Thank you to Tonia and Doyle and Gayle for such a wild challenge that made taking a photo a moment of contemplation: "how do I usually look at this, and how might I see it anew?"
Doyle, I sent an idea your way, and hope you'll help me refine the concept into a challenge.
Well done!
Looking forward to the next challenge.
Uh, Doylester, the link to Jennifer's honorable mention photo leads to a totally different picture by a totally different person. You might want to check that!
