WEEKLY INFORMAL CHALLENGE: WEEK 96: "Sweet"

Post Fri Feb 10, 2012 2:52 pm


Weekly Challenge: Sweet

The adjective sweet can have many definitions. (We can do the noun another time) Here are ways of defining sweet, though some may be difficult to photograph:

1 having the pleasant taste characteristic of sugar or honey; not salty, sour, or bitter : a cup of hot sweet tea | figurative a sweet taste of success.
• (of air, water, or food) fresh, pure, and untainted : lungfuls of the clean, sweet air.
• [often in combination ] smelling pleasant like flowers or perfume; fragrant : sweet-smelling flowers.

2 pleasing in general; delightful : it was the sweet life he had always craved.
• highly satisfying or gratifying : some sweet, short-lived revenge.
• [often as exclam. ] informal used in expressions of assent or approval : Yeah, I'd like to come to the party. Sweet.
• working, moving, or done smoothly or easily : the sweet handling of this motorcycle.
• (of sound) melodious or harmonious : the sweet notes of the flute.
• denoting music, esp. jazz, played at a steady tempo without improvisation.

3 (of a person or action) pleasant and kind or thoughtful : a very sweet nurse came along.
• (esp. of a person or animal) charming and endearing : a sweet little cat.
• [ predic. ] ( sweet on) informal dated infatuated or in love with : she seemed quite sweet on him.
• dear; beloved : my sweet love.
• archaic used as a respectful form of address : go to thy rest, sweet sir.

4 used for emphasis in various phrases and exclamations : What had happened? Sweet nothing.
• ( one's own sweet ——) used to emphasize the unpredictable individuality of someone's actions : I'd rather carry on in my own sweet way.



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)
