WPC 1417 - Blue Hour

Hey Hedgehogs, it’s time for another Weekly Photo Challenge. This week’s theme is entitled Blue Hour.
- Be sure the title or description of your entry explains your interpretation of the theme.

The challenges are simple. You start with a theme, but the twist is that everyone needs to submit a title or description with their photo that explains the ‘who, what, where, why, when or how’ they went through to get it. This helps us ‘feel’ the moment as you did, but can also help with voting. You might even find some great tips along the way.

This is about challenging yourself, pushing beyond your limits, so have fun and try anything and everything whether you are good at it or not. Remember; you can't win if you don't try. Good luck and have fun!

I am a new forum member. I joined because this seems to be a great place to learn about photography. I think the weekly contest is great. It is a wonderful way to see what can be done with a camera. There are certainly quite a number of fine photos in this week's lineup.

One question though; re voting, can one vote for multiple photos each week, or should one narrow it down and chose just one per week?

Welcome and glad to have you with us!

Please note the way voting works.
You can vote as many times as you like, but only have one (1) voting point.
If you vote for multiple entries, your (1) point gets divided among them all.
