May Photo Challenge - Science Fiction Fantasy Chronicles: forums

Talysia · 2nd May 2012, 07:36 AM

I'm going with an elemental theme this month:

WATER

Water can be taken for granted - from a raging torrent to a peaceful stream, a dripping tap to a much needed drink, or even the ocean or the effects of a flood or drought. It's so essential to life, and yet it can de devastating, too.

Standard rules apply:

- Only two photographs per participant
- All photographs entered must be owned and have been taken by the member posting
- Do not use photographs already posted around the site
- Entries close and voting begins at midnight GMT on the 27th of the month
- The winner must post a new challenge within a couple of days
- All Chrons members welcome to enter
- All Chrons members may vote (including those who do not enter the competition)

Any discussion should go in the corresponding thread: May Photo Challenge - Discussion

My first entry, taken this morning, when the rain was still clinging to the plants in the garden. I saw this perfect little drop of water and decided to take a picture of it.

Taken today at the rezzie. It's flooded, and I got wet feet.

My son took this but he won't enter it. If it wins he can take credit. He is a lapsed member.

The River Barle in North Devon, just before I paddled it.

The River Irfon in Wales, a little spot that we nicknamed the 'Washing Machine', never actually tried paddling it though

We have a village tap, providing water from a spring. This little frog was taking a bath in the runoff.

This is another photo from the same location as the first. I took this one, in case the other breaks the rules of the competition.
