    its been said before that its only post processing that is off limits...whatever you use with your camera to set the mood and capture the picture is ok as long as its your interpretation of the theme.

    Me too. So many possibilities and I think I already have my shot pictured in my mind. Really looking forward to this and being something different, I hope it attracts a lot of people and we have the highest entry numbers.

    In relation to the previous science geek stuff. As one myself, I can totally relate to those safety glasses. Very geeky.

    Regards,

    Laughing.gif Coffee is always good !

    So I guess I am interpreting the poem by Poe that you posted in #10.

    Next Question:

    Do we need to post with the photo the verse/line of the poem that we are illustrating?

    Nope. Let the image stand alone. This one is all out artistic interpretation.

    Hey GS, just have say, I loved #9, but I really love #10.

    You have given a sense of direction to entrants, but also left it open for artistic interpretation....VERY cool !!

    Do we still provide a title for the image? Could it be the lines of the poem?
