Weekly Photo Challenge: Narrow

“This week, let’s keep things narrow (but not narrow-minded!): share a photo with your take on the theme. You could focus on a slender object, or shoot an image where your field of vision is restricted. Alleyways and half-open doors, seesaws and water slides, spaghetti and electric cords… the world is full of narrow things. I can’t wait to see which one you’ll pick for your entry.”(https://dailypost.wordpress.com/photo-challenges/narrow/)

Here are a couple of the narrow paths I walk through on a regular basis.

This one during lunchhour walks at work

This one as I walk or run down along the ocean.  It’s especially spooky when it’s getting dark…

Weekly Photo Challenge: Cherry on Top

“This week, share an image of a finishing touch from your own life. Maybe it’s a photo of the blooming rose bush that’s the centerpiece of your garden, or a shot of the sunset that was a perfect end to a wonderful day. Perhaps it’s a snapshot of the glowing grin on your daughter’s face after she achieves a longed-for goal, or a picture of the statue on top of a beautiful old building in your city.” (https://dailypost.wordpress.com/photo-challenges/cherry-on-top/)

This is generally the cherry on the top of a long work week.

And this week?  This was the cherry on top this week.  Something, perhaps only Canadians will understand.

Weekly Photo Challenge: Details

“Discover the intimate details of something unexpected, and share your images with us.” (https://dailypost.wordpress.com/photo-challenges/details/)

I chose this picture because this faded detail was discovered in our office (really a bedroom) underneath wallpaper.

I painted the room, but left the old stencil intact.  It’s one of my favourite original features in our home.

Weekly Photo Challenge: Look Up

“This week is all about taking a moment to check out what’s going on above you.” (https://dailypost.wordpress.com/photo-challenges/look-up/)

Let’s see, I have pictures showing how I have looked up at buildings,

Weekly Photo Challenge: Opposites

“This week, make two opposing elements come together (or clash in dissonance) in one photo.”(https://dailypost.wordpress.com/photo-challenges/opposites/)

This was hard – I finally went with opposites as unexpected.

Nature and Man-made

Proud

Roof and Ground

Tree and something that grows sideways…

Weekly Photo Challenge: Numbers

“Equations. Clock faces. Cash registers. Numbers are everywhere: this week, share a photo that puts them front and center.”(https://dailypost.wordpress.com/photo-challenges/numbers-2/)

Numbers, eh?  Let’s see what I can dig up here…

This is a really big number.

These are numbers we don’t use very often and have to think about the higher they get.

Weekly Photo Challenge: Spare

“This week, get inspired by the many connotations of the word “spare.””(https://dailypost.wordpress.com/photo-challenges/spare/)

  1. (adjective) Additional to what is required for ordinary use.
  2. (adjective) Elegantly simple.
  3. (verb) To refrain from harming.

I found myself intrigued by the second definition.  I’ve never used “spare” this way before, but here goes:
