How to Use This Board (http://www.christianphotographers.com/community/index.php?topic=5279.0)









Details:   

• Show us your best photos of illustrating "TRASH or TREASURE" for this challenge.  Here is an opportunity to come up with some fascinating and creative pictures!  If you have a Treasure that some might think is Trash, let's see it!     

• Use the attachment feature to show your photos (see directions above in the link to "How to Use This Board") in your post or link to them from your gallery or an offsite location that allows linking using the image codes.  If you have trouble, please contact a moderator (name in blue) or an administrator (name in red) and we'll help you post your photo.  If you have your photo in your gallery, please don't use the attachment feature as that puts the photo on our server twice but rather link to it.    

• Please upload up to 4 entries per member for this challenge.    

• The challenge is open now and will be closed to uploads on Saturday, August 12th, 2006 and then we'll vote on them.    

• Please put a title in your post for your photos.  We need the title for the poll.   

• Of course, we're going to see who is posting the photos so this is not an anonymous challenge.  So start posting.  Click on the "Reply" button below and start this challenge!
  Remember, this is a fun project!    

Thanks to Muddy Sneakers for suggesting this topic.  She was the winner of our last Challenge entitled "Candy".  Thanks Christina!


 

I see everyone is having a hard time with this one.  Soon we will see 'treasures'.

I'm guessing a trip to a Garage/Yard Sale might give some clues.  We don't have those in Japan, so I'm working hard to think of something.  I know my wife thinks of my little 12' aluminum boat out back as junk, but it surely is one of my small treasures! :lol:

Christina, any suggestions to get us rollin'?

Gripped,
Kevin

Kevin - you must inform Midori that in case of tsunami, you are ready.

Colin - that IS good.

There is a bare tree up on the back side of Big Bear in California that is full of shoes.

This tree is actually full of shoes and skateboard parts.

I used an old key to create a new treasured photograph!

We better get the creative juices flowiing here.  Only a week left.  (But I guess we could lengthen it).

A load of Trash

I think your boat sounds great Kevin! I don't know what else to suggest except photographing along those lines that you mentioned! :)

I'd better get crackin!

Great photo's from everyone....interesting subject :-\

For some reason my pictures seem to be too large this time?  Can you reduce them for the site....?

They look good to me, Liz! 

I really like these choices ... especially "happy treasure" ..  ;)

Well, we're getting some nice Trash or Treasure photos now.  I must see what I can come up with.

Do these have to be new photos or can I dig up some oldies?  Doesn't matter, just curious.

Get your spade, Nard.  Start digging!  :lol:

These aren't new; wish I had time to make some new ones, but I'm only entering two right now so maybe two later.

When I moved back 'home', I found these in the back of a closet under some blankets.  Dad painted these paint by number dogs years ago and said 'Never again'.  They must have been Mom's trash but my treasure.

My treasure from years ago.  Straw Flowers in Shadow Box Frames.

DOG IN ANTIQUE SHOP

I took this today while in a small shop looking thro' timeless treasures :-\

Didn't buy it!!

Man, it seemed like this just started.
Well when I get the time I will walk down to the end of our street and photograph my entry and post it here.

Well, the ole' acid reflux has me up late tonight, so thought I would post a photo here.

Here you go...... Trash or Treasure?

Old Barn..... a lot of memories were made here !


[attachment deleted by admin]

Even though it wasn't in time for the competition, that is a great shot.  I've always loved shots of old barns and other "country" things.  Could it be 'cause I'm just a country boy from Louisiana?

Thanks for posting, Rob.

In His Grip,
Kevin

It looks as if this is a close one!

Have YOU voted?

Is voting here open or closed?  I'm seeing a three way tie and the time says it is closed, but it appears to still be open? 

I think we have to have a run off vote between the top three!  Wow!

We never had a three-way tie for first place before!!  So guess we should vote on them to see who's going to choose the next topic.

Not sure if this is what you mean or not, but I would list all three as being the "winner" then let the winner of the run off choose the topic.

or is that what you meant?

What close voting! 

Voting closes tomorrow!

Voting is over!

We sure saw some great "Trash or Treasure"  in here.

Help us congratulate the winners of this Challenge!  Everyone was a winner!  Just a fantastic challenge!  Thanks to Christina for suggesting this subject!  :thumbsup:




So, Etta Sue chooses the next topic! 

Congratulations for all three of these tying for first place!

This is a list of the final votes before we did the runoff to decide who would choose the next topic!
