126th Show & Tell Competition: EXTREME

Post Mon Jul 06, 2009 6:49 pm


The topic for this week is "EXTREME"

This week we are looking for images depicting something that is, or some action being done in the "EXTREME".

To help generate more ideas... Some additional definitions of "EXTREME" (from dictionary.com)...

...of a character or kind farthest removed from the ordinary or average
...utmost or exceedingly great in degree (example: extreme joy)
...exceeding the bounds of moderation: (example: extreme fashions)
... going to the utmost or very great lengths in action, habit, opinion, etc. (example: an extreme conservationist)

Looking forward to your submissions... :)


Note /Request -

With a topic such as EXTREME there is scope to submit images that may offend some so I ask you be sensitive and 'considerate' in making your selections for this week's competition... Visual media has been used very effectively to portray and make people aware of excesses and extreme behaviour (with a negative connotation) of people towards other people, places or animals... Lets not use this thread to depict those 'extreme' images ...

Lets stray towards the weird, wacky, 'pushing the envelope' definitions of EXTREME


Good luck

Extreme cold (I admit I'm a California wuss) when I stepped out into the freeze left after the hoar fog lifted.

First time I ever saw a helicopter make a loop like a plane, and fly upside down!

Extremes of Nature. Think Mom Nature got a little carried away with these horns. Not sure how they can hold their heads up!
