Blue summer sky:

Great Blue Heron at Holmdel Park:

Hi Honey!! Three wonderful shots for the theme. Beautiful shot of the flowers against the summer sky. Fabulous shot of the Great Blue poser in the second shot. He seems to be saying "this is my best side......" LOL. Lovely shot of the carousel to finish with.

Brilliant shots for this theme! I love the blue sky with the white flowers (hollyhocks?) and clouds. Those herons are wonderful, aren't they? Your take on that one is wonderful with the bright green background. Like the blue stripes on the carousel.

Better late than never I always say, nice to see someone later than me for a change LOL

Love love love the first shot of the bush with the blue sky behind, what kind of flowers are they? First I thought roses, then no ....... it looks like a white Hibiscus???

The blue Heron is a fantastic shot and the carousel makes me think of happy children. *smile*

three very good choices especially as we do not have herons where I live. Lovely blue sky and a good idea with the carousel.

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.
