Hi Nico!! Good to see you taking part again. Three wonderful flower shots for Debby's theme. I really like the artichoke flower in the second shot and the rose in the third shot, but my favourite is definately the first photo. I love the deep red of the poppy, and how it serves as an introduction to the scene beyond. Beautiful!!

Ciao, Nico, what a stunning poppy in the foreground of the villa. The artichoke is lovely as well, I have eaten them, but have never seen the flower until now. Beautiful rose against the blue sky.

Nico, that first one is exceptional! The light on the poppy is lovely. I like the way the flower stands out like it is hanging outside of the photo...sort of a 3-D effect.

The thistle (avocado?) and the rose are wonderful! It looks like I can reach inside of your photo and touch and smell the rose!

My all time favorite shot, Nico. The man of the Red Poppy. I love it ! Never tire of that background either to your wonderful interesting cultural rich country.

Lovely red rose, but what is the second one called? REally interesting shot.

Rules For Weekly Challenges

The rules are similar to when Picture This was on Multiply, with a few differences. As always, please post a maximum of three photos each. The Picture This page on Blogger is optimised for image size 640 x 480, so please try to post images NO LARGER than this to avoid distorting the page or overlapping onto the right-rail. Blogger has a storage limit for photos uploaded directly to the site, so please use copy/paste of HTML from storage sites such as Flickr or Photobucket as much as you can. Unlike Multiply, Blogger does not allow posting of images in comment boxes, so anyone taking part should put their photos, along with any accompanying text, in a separate post here on the PT main page, making sure the challenge number and theme are in the title line. Please note that the posts will appear in reverse order. After the host has posted the challenge, all contribution posts will appear above it on the main page, so you will have to scroll down the main page to find the host's post.

Challenge Albums & Flickr

Unlike Multiply, Blogger does not have facility for photo albums, so Picture This now has it's own associated Flickr account, where albums will be uploaded to . Once on Flickr, they will then be cross-posted to Blogger (all of this part is done by the admins, just like the albums were on Multiply). Each challenge album will appear on it's own tabbed page, along with a Flickr slideshow of the album. The cross-post only shows the first 24 images as thumbnails, to see the whole album, either watch the slideshow, or click on the little blue link between the thumbnails and the slideshow. Only the most recent three challenge albums will show on tabbed pages, to see earlier albums, you will need to go to the Picture This Flickr page. CLICK HERE TO GO TO FLICKR PAGE. Our Flickr account has tight copyright controls, so your photos are as safe as on your own Flickr page.
