Weekly Challenge: "The Blue Hour"

The blue hour comes from the French expression l'heure bleue, which refers to the period of twilight each morning and evening where there is neither full daylight nor complete darkness. The time is considered special because of the quality of the light at this time of day.

Show us your images taken at this special time of day.

A few simple rules:

1. Themes are posted on Fridays to give you the weekend to come up with a FRESH shot for the challenge to post through Monday.

2. This is about interaction, learning, being challenged and having fun so... HAVE FUN!

3. The themes are specific but interpretations are broad. Stay on theme but PLEASE feel free to think outside the box.

4. Look at others' submissions, comment as moved to do so and offer supportive and constructive feedback. Please don't just post for exposure. Look and at least comment on some.

5. Did we already mention: HAVE FUN!!!



Walter (for Scott and Walter)

The Challenge for this week has been posted a day early to allow for one more dawn and one more dusk to take your images. :D

...I needed the extra day. Off to Alabama for my grandmother's memorial service. Maybe I can work in something as a tribute to her from the farm in South Alabama!

This weeks topic was more of a challenge than I anticipated and I admit I had to reach back to my archives for an image. We've had nothing but grey skies and non-stop rain for three days....my camera and I stayed dry and warm while I searched for an image that would suit this topic. Please forgive my bending of the rules this week....staying dry seemed the better option. :0)
