So, I went out today to this little park I never even knew existed before today. It's less than 3 miles from my house and right across the street from the big new shopping center that I shop at all the time... who knew? They don't call it an historical park for nothing! After having already gotten quite a number of shots, I ran into one of the very few park employees who was kind enough to let me into the restricted areas. I'm OVERWHELMED with how many options I now have for this challenge and would love some help in deciding which of these I should enter.

Laid down on the ground and put my camera through this hole to get the next shot...

    I like #9 - the wagon wheel - but I also like your grandma's china. Will be interested to see what you choose to enter!

    I like #9 also. The wheel provides more of central subject than the others.

    There's a disturbing - to me - over-saturation in most of the images, and a
    excess of yellow - or is it orange? - in all of the images. You might try a
    little more subtle touch in post.

    For me... #9 in this set, but I'll agree with Gretchen and prefer the china cup shot overall. Nice that the rangers were accommodating!

    Really? The china shot still? I really do like my tea cup, even tho that set up was one of desperation when I was idealess. Laughing.gif I did rework a couple of my other shots... I like the wagon wheel too and am also partial to the rework of the inside of my favorite building from today (maybe because I had to work so hard for it).

    So... I'll narrow it down to these three...

    1. Grandma's China (currently entered)

    I think I pick the wagon wheel! The china to me is just a bit dark feeling, if that makes sense? And the wagon wheel has a freshness to it. For what it's worth (and I know I'm chiming in too late to be of much use for this round), I think the processing on # 3 is gorgeous.
