PICTURE THIS #363 ~ THE THINGS I SAW

Good morning from Lisbon, where the temperature is still high at this early hour! How lucky I am to host this week's Challenge!!! Why? You may wonder... I tell you the reason: I think of myself as a bit superstitious and I believe palindromic numbers bring good fortune. It's the case with PT number of this week... 363!!!

Even though, my choice of theme has nothing to do with numbers, superstitions, either, but it relates to THE THINGS I SAW. We are permanently seeing things but only a few are captured by our cameras. I'm curious to see 'your things'. Please show them to us...

Thanks!

I saw all the things in Lisbon

This display caught my attention for the delicate porcelain figures and the copper wares that are not delicate at all.

Interesting and very logical display... Cats and sardines... THINGS I SAW...

The arrangement of the wicker basket and the corn stalks tied together reminded me Autumn is coming soon...

Intentionally, the red tulips are at the bottom, not because I don't like the shot. On the contrary, I love it. The last is always the best...

Hi Belita!! Many thanks for hosting this week, a wonderful theme that has many possible interpretations. I really like that first shot. Although made of very different materials, the porcelain figures and the copper jugs somehow look like they belong together. Yes, indeed...cats and sardines are a good match, knowing how much cats love to eat fish!! Corn stalks and wicker baskets also look like they belong together naturally. A beautiful display of tulips to finish with.

So wonderful! I love how you captured the shine of the copper vases along the porcelain figures. The kitties and fish are nice too and make a good picture. Wonderful corn, yes autumn is coming soon. And I agree, your last shot is my favorite, a lovely collection of colors and shapes, light and dark.

Lovely photos. I like the arrangement of the group in the first photo and it seems the cats are annoyed that the sardines are not real. Wonderful tuplip arrangement with the contrasting colours and love the corn.

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.
