Hey Hedgehogs, it’s time for another Weekly Photo Challenge.

The challenges are simple. You start you off with a theme, but where you take it is up to you! The twist is that everyone needs to submit a short statement along 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 they did, but can also help with voting. You might also find some great tips to make you better. These are more about challenging yourself than worrying that your photo isn't good enough so everyone is invited especially those who want to improve.

Now for the legal stuff:
- Contests start Friday mornings and end Wednesday evenings
- Voting starts Thursday morning and ends Friday evening - 2 Day Voting!
- One entry per user, and entries may only be used once. Repeats will be rejected.
- All entries MUST include statement as noted above. Untitled will be rejected.
- Post processing is fine, but please keep it to the absolute minimum
- Archived photos are not encouraged - please shoot your photo during the challenge
- Everyone gets one vote - if you vote more than once see below *
- Once voting starts there can be no additional entries
- To keep it fair, the user names and vote counts are hidden until voting is over and winners are announced. All votes are anonymous
- And of course, the rules are subject to change as the challenges require

If you need me for any reason, send a Private Message or leave a Reply.

Above all remember this is about challenging yourself – pushing beyond the limits you think you have – so have fun with it and try anything and everything whether you are good at it or not. Make it fun and thank you all! This wouldn't be possible without you. St3v3M

Title: Enchanted Forest This photo was taken at the Norfolk Botanical Garden in Norfolk, Virginia during a Night Photography workshop. The Garden at this time of year puts on a 1,000,000+ bulb display over a two mile path running thru their garden.

Yes KK, that is an intriguing image - not your usual Holiday cliche pic. Uncommon color choices for the subject with excellent saturation. Kind of invites me into the picture.

KK, that is a real good thing. If can not even start to describe it, because even 1/2 hour of description and explanation wont do, then shut up and look at it. Great.

Couldn't help noticing there are several photos with copy right or watermarks on them (their names). And one from "around the web' from a photo blog site, it's been 'shared' on Facebook. I hope the submitter is the owner of that photo.

It's very easy to stamp out/black out watermarks and copyright info before submitting small size photos.

The 'Facebook' photo posted in innocence has been removed by the submitter.
