Weekly Photo Challenge: Endurance

This Friday our Weekly Photo Challenge hostess Krista is asking us to “Show what endurance means to you. Is it that high-school diploma, beads of sweat earned on a long run, a treasured family heirloom, or something else entirely?”

Here is my take on the theme…. with appropriate score.

 

 
hopping

 

Why don’t you grab the widget that Cardinal Guzman created specifically for this challenge. It is not the WPC official widget, but it is far more original and pleasing to the eye.

  1. 🙂 I really do love your wit and sense of humour, Paula, but at the same time must admit the shot is perfect – colours, details and, especially, the moment!

    1. I am a naughty, naughty girl 😉 😀 Thank you, Ese… The proposed WPC ideas almost ruined it for me which reminded me of a blogger friend that once said that he was clueless the moment he read their suggestions. This time I did not allow Krista or anybody else to influence me and I had the photo ready. Ese, I appreciate your sincere comment and even more your company. Have a good weekend!

      1. Naughty is what adds some spice to our lives 😉
        No influence has resulted into an original and completely unexpected result.
        Thank you, Paula! Wishing you a lovely end of the week!

            1. I wouldn’t know either – the only batteries I use are the ones in my camera.

  10. Jiminy Crickets goes on vacation with his lady and gets stalked by paparazzi? His lawyer is going to send you a cease and desist ’cause I’m sure he doesn’t want that sex tape out there. Could be a good thing for his struggling career, makes him hipper, younger, more relevant. He’s been type cast for too long.
