CMT challenge 5 = Quirky, eccentric, amusing. ------------------------------------------------------------------- quirky = unusual in an attractive and interesting way eccentric = 1. strange, 2. not perfectly circular amusing = entertaining and funny I hope this reflection does it all

CMT4 challenge = Murals or artwork. An easy one this week. If you don't have any mural's nearby, then maybe a favourite artwork in your home would work. A NEW photo taken after this announcement.. Post processing OK. ------------------------------ Where is a mural when you need one? For this one time I found this artwork in my home archives, it happens to be a mural, forgive me. Did a lot of postprocessing, this is the result. Stairs are real as far as there is no red carpet. If you presume to know these guys, that could be true, they're all moviestars.

CMT3 challenge = Copycat --------------------------------------- CMT3 challenge = Please visit a fellow CMT group member's ipernity photo collection, to find a photo that you really like. Take a new photo inspired by the subject, or style, of the original photo. Please credit the original photographer, and put a link to the original photo in your description or comments. Post processing OK. --------------------------------------- I found this photo of Gillian as inspiration for this weeks challenge. Click the image for a larger view if you like.

CMT2 - challenge = Your interpretation of mesmerising -------------------------------------------------------------------------- The beauty of dragonflies! A female blue emperor (Anax imperator) depositing her eggs on a dead leaf

CMT1 challenge = A big welcome to those who have joined from the Sunday Challenge group. To start off our "NEW" weekly challenges on Sundays, the theme is FAVOURITE/S. Please REWORK one of your favourites from your Sunday Challenge posts. Alternatively, create a COLLAGE of some of your favourites. --------------------------------------------------- This weeks challenge gives a nice opportunity to introduce myself to the new group. The collage is made with a free mosaic tool, out of a number of my own images, too small to identify. Don't worry, there is more to come. Thanks for having me here! I prefer to work in a square format within a large white frame, it becomes visible when you click on the image

The sunday challenge, final round .... They say all good things come to an end. Many thanks to Wendi, Chris and Fraggs for all their enthousiasm and energy, I felt lucky in participating. I wish you first of all good health and all the best to you and your family. Thanks fellow members for all of your comments and fellowship. I hope we meet again ........ somewhere.

The sunday challenge = something to do with fathers ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Our father took us kids for a long holiday to the south of France, exploring new areas, different climate, vegetation, food, language. I remember the long ride and the tiny space each of us had in the car. Camping. Crickets. Swimming in the river amongst fish, snakes and lizzards. Black and green olives. French fries. Traut. Times, long, long ago ..... I have posted a picture of him some time ago, see www.ipernity.com/doc/305531/44333224

The sunday challenge = One thing in your home that defines who/what you are ------------------------------------------------------------------------- JPs contribution was an extra challenge for me this week. This image was taken long ago in Ronda Spain. It is special to me while I was managing vet at a bull station for many years. My strong advice: never turn your back on a bull when you wear red!
