Hi Everyone, dgrin challenge #61 is here. It will run from Monday, 20 Mar at 12:00:01 a.m. NYC time, through Monday, 3 Apr at Noon NYC time. The guest judge for the challenge will be the winner of challenge #60, as determined by the voters.

Remember, in order for everyone to benefit, you should be commenting and critiquing for others as much as you expect to get for yourself. You've got to give to get!

The challenge #61 theme is Black and White in Color. That means a black and white shot taken in color, no photoshop other than the standard enhancements like sharpening and such. The idea is to take a shot that would look like a Black & White with just one small spot of color to indicate it was taken in color. This idea was submitted by Saurora in the future challenge suggestions thread.

This thread, is the one into which you post your challenge entry, and remember, one entry per person, and the photo must be fresh, taken during the challenge period. You must post the date the photograph was taken or it will be deemed ineligible. Any entries without a date included, either typed in or by linked exif, will be deleted without notice.

All of the rules of the dgrin photo challenges apply, please read them!

***Challenge 61 will close to entries on Monday, 3 Apr at 12 Noon NYC time***
Y'all don't want to hear me, you just want to dance.

    I knew, of course, that trees and plants had roots, stems, bark, branches and foliage that reached up toward the light. But I was coming to realize that the real magician was light itself.
