I agree Paul. I'm new to all this so I basically copied what had gone before, but after the first two or three weeks everybody's inspiration regarding this particular picture had run dry.Quote:

OK Qmi - I'm ready for another!
Wow, thanks Hillwalker and everyone. Sorry to be so late to the party. It never really occured to me that winning this one was a possibility. So much talent, so much competition! They were all quite inspired.
I'm sorry it's been awhile. I will have a picture posted by Saturday. I wouldn't normally take so long, but my computer is down. I'm at the library at the moment, trying to get something typed up for tomorrow. I'll see what's out there. Maybe I can post something before I leave. Fingers crossed!
Congrats again qimissung - I tred to send you a PM the same day but your in-box is full??
Anyway, well done again. A worthy winner.
Thank you, Hillwalker. My PM box is cleared out a bit. I have a picture picked out and will hopefully have it posted soon.
Hopefully this is the Picture qimissung tried to post
via my pc :

That's it! The very one. Thank you hillwalker, for your help in my time of need. Yes, my computer is on the blink. Good times! And hillwalker is the coefficient of cool! :)
So, to one and all, let the games begin.
Interesting picture. Can't make anything of it yet, but will have a go. I thought you'd posted it sideways at first - I've been twisting and squinting...
:lol:
You're very welcome, qim. And I do believe it is one of these trick pictures that presents a new image when turned onto its side.
Curioser and curioser.

I can't see the hiddeness - perhaps that's the poem I'll write - on my optical ineptitude...
My optical ineptitude
Is not a case of being rude...
no no..perhaps not.
:lol: Ow! my aching neck. The second picture is a bonus. I have to admit that I din't see it when perusing and selecting this. I'm not sure what I'm looking for when I do these. Something that delights the eye and says something about the human condition, I guess.
I'll post a deadline in the next day or so. It will be in about three weeks.
Have fun! :)
Mist
The mist intrigued round the mountain.
We stand alone with just the mist for company.
Mist invited us to join her and float in the sky.
She hugged every part of our bodies with her cold air.
We held hands tight and refused to let her take us.
The mountain is our only saviour against her.
We push back toward the stone.
But she gets strong with the wind on her side.
I feel my hand slip from him.
Hold tight as I can.
She gently lifts my feet.
Slowly pulling me away from my heart's desire.
This what I interpet the picture said to me and I hope you all like thankyou.
Here's my jingle-jangle number.
Transparency
The sun behind the stones,
The people in the crag,
His hands in his pockets,
Her hands behind her gown.
We hide what we can see:
These people, the earth, and me.
The sun behind the clouds,
The rain sounds on our roof,
My two girls watch Dora,
My wife is on the phone.
We hide what we can see:
These people, the earth, and me.
Shadows lap the fissures,
And boarders crop the trees,
The viewer is a ghost.
The river runs below.
We hide what we can see:
These people, the earth, and me.
Dinner on the table,
I whisper "thanks" alone,
Then say "thanks" out loud
For true transparency.
We hide what we can see:
These people, the earth, and me.
Thank you, zoolane and comedian. Very interesting contributions. And we're off!
