May theme - Looking Up

[Mz Pip]

The voters have spoken and we have a theme. Looking Up. Both nature and architectural photos are acceptable, black and white or color. Creative processing okay but not required.

Open submissions will begin on May 10 and will run for 5 days or until 30 submissions are received, whichever comes first. If anyone needs to submit before then , let me know. I can post your entry for you.

Have fun shooting! 📷

5. So I'm with this theme and I love it!

So far I have only taken a literal interpretation but as I take more pictures I realize there are so many other ways to think about it...

Up a waterfall:


Up through butterflies:


Then I started getting creative... Looking up the street:


I came up with a few more...
- Looking up to someone.
- Looking uptown.

Can't wait to keep shooting!

7. Anybody else having a hard time deciding?

Buildings or nature? Nature or buildings? Hmmm....

Narrowed down to two.

8. I picked mine... and I got lucky I got nature, textiles, and technology...

Trifecta!

Can't wait to see all the entries, I will say this was a fun contest to shoot for.

9. OK. I've decided.

Don't like any of my walking around shots yesterday. One shot--from the archives--
with just a little cropping.

This is one I took yesterday of the Bell Tower on the UNC campus
