Members periodically select specific subjects or themes for their photographs. The current theme is "Reflections.”  “Reflections” are all around us and are everywhere. Look for them in water (lakes, streams, ponds and puddles), in windows, mirrors and other shiny surfaces. Reflections are also remarkable easy to capture. The chosen “Reflection” does not have to be the subject of the picture but must be in the picture. The goal is to be artistic and creative.

Members periodically select specific subjects or themes for their photographs. The current theme is "Patterns.”  Patterns are the result of a combination of elements or shapes repeated in a recurring and regular arrangement. Patterns also include repetition, which refers to one object or shape repeated, and rhythm, which is a combination of elements repeated but with variations. Life is filled with patterns. Your job for this theme is to photograph them. You can emphasize them by filling the frame with a pattern to present the appearance of large numbers. Or be daring and break the pattern with a contrasting object or removing one of the repeating objects. The group selected 1 photo from each participant to be posted here. The following photos, taken and selected by members, exemplify that theme.
