Picture This 185: Lynda's Dusk To Dawn

PICTURE THIS 185: From Dusk To Dawn hosted by Baz

Photo #1 was taken in camp during one of our trips to the Carson National Forest in New Mexico. I was really proud of how this photo came off the camera to the computer. Camera was on a tripod as I waited for it to rise above the mountain.

Photo #2 was taken a few days ago before sunrise. I had been watching the moon from the house and decided to brave the cold and take some quick hand held shots before the sun rose.

Photo #3 was taken just for "Picture This". Camera was on the dawn/dusk automatic scene setting. All I have to do is open the front door, step outside, quickly click, and back inside before I get cold. I waited until the "jet trail" was in just the right spot before I took the photo.

I have got to say the bottom one is stunning Lynda. Love the other two as well, especially the moon one which still looks to be shining a bit.

Three great photos. Love the one of the windmill which we do not see so much in that style in Europe.

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.
