“Rejoice! It’s the end of the week, and time for a celebratory photo challenge.” (https://dailypost.wordpress.com/photo-challenges/jubilant/)

For me, after a short bout with the stomach flu, jubilance is finally enjoying a nice cup o’ coffee (and it staying put once drunk 🙂 )

“This week, let’s celebrate our many different faces.” (https://dailypost.wordpress.com/photo-challenges/face/)

Many, many faces…

“Share your vision of our magnificent Earth through your lens.” (https://dailypost.wordpress.com/photo-challenges/earth/)

A selection from the past couple of years…

“Show us someone or something you admire (and tell us about them, too)!” (https://dailypost.wordpress.com/photo-challenges/admiration/)

I admire my friend Susan (from Regina) who held all the bugs at the Bug Zoo when she, and our friend Darca, went there a few weeks back…no way I was going to do it!

“This week, turn the concrete and familiar into something new and mysterious.” (https://dailypost.wordpress.com/photo-challenges/abstract/)

Sometimes taking a picture of something that doesn’t turn out the way you would like to works out for something else – like all my pictures of the moon!

And sometimes you do abstract on purpose, like when I’m sitting in the car at the car wash.

I liked this challenge!

It’s been awhile since I did one of these, I think.  So, here we go!

“This week, focus on dinnertime: share a meal with us, or shoot during your dinner hour. Blogger’s choice!” (https://dailypost.wordpress.com/photo-challenges/dinnertime/)

Mmmmmm….dinnertime….

Kitties like dinnertime too…

“This week, think about time and portray it photographically. Maybe you have a photo about one of the activities in the extract from Haig’s book above. Perhaps you have a fascination with clocks. Or maybe contemplating time takes you somewhere else completely. I hope you enjoy this week’s challenge.” (https://dailypost.wordpress.com/photo-challenges/time/)

The sundial at Ogden Point (http://www.ogdenpoint.org/our-initiatives/the-sundial/) – where you use yourself as the gnomon!

“This week, share a photo of something vibrant. Vivid colors, a lively portrait, or perhaps a delightfully colorful landscape, if you’re in a warmer climate. Let’s wash the web with a rainbow of colors to keep the winter gloom at bay.” (https://dailypost.wordpress.com/photo-challenges/vibrant/)

New colours and a vibrant lift for the end of January!

“This week show us something you’re optimistic about, or perhaps a talisman that helps you stay positive and hopeful, regardless of what life (and the weather!) throws your way. ” (https://dailypost.wordpress.com/photo-challenges/optimistic/)

Another reminder of how lucky we are to be living where we do.  Every day there is something to be optimistic about.  Sometimes you just have to look for it.

This week “This week, let the alphabet be your inspiration: find a string of letters. ” (https://dailypost.wordpress.com/photo-challenges/alphabet/)
