THURSDAY’S SPECIAL: PICK A WORD – NOVEMBER 2021

It’s time for November’s Pick a Word photo challenge. This time I have four completely new photos from my country and one which is an embellished memory. The words are rather simple (most of them), but it does not mean that their interpretation isn’t challenging. Here you go: EMBELLISHED LEAFAGE PANORAMIC PONDEROUS SURROUNDED Now a mobile phone shot of a scene in front of…

THURSDAY’S SPECIAL: ZOOM IN, ZOOM OUT

Here’s another Thursday’s Special photo challenge for you. This time the theme is “zoom in, zoom out”. Show one subject/scene (whatever you like) from up close and far. Let’s see how different things seem when you have a closer look. Take your time posting for this challenge and don’t forget to have fun. Happy Thursday!  P.S. I have been very busy and haven’t had…

THURSDAY’S SPECIAL: RECYCLED

This week’s Thursday’s Special theme is recycled. In the image below you can see a bench made of empty graffiti paint spray bottles. I hope you are a fan of recycling and that you will have no problems finding something for this theme. I look forward to seeing your entries  next week.    To those that celebrate I wish a very happy Easter!    (\_/)…

THURSDAY’S SPECIAL: YOUR BEST PHOTO IN 2017

For the last Thursday’s Special in 2017 I am offering you a challenge that IS NOT, and yet it might be the most challenging one so far 😀  I would like you to post again what you consider to be your best shot posted this year. The end of this year has been a bit more stressful than usual for me, but I am…

THURSDAY’S SPECIAL: IMITATION

  Welcome to another Thursday’s Special photo challenge. For those that do not know, this is a weekly event where you are invited to post a photo (or several if you like) on the given theme. The deadline is by next Thursday. Today’s theme, imitation,  should not be too difficult. After all, the world is full of it. Wishing you all a happy and…

THURSDAY’S SPECIAL: SLOW

  SLOW is my choice for today’s photo challenge. When I first came up with the idea I thought of slow shutter speed (i.e. long-exposure photography), but then I decided to be less specific knowing that not everybody is equipped for long exposure photography, and the theme is just SLOW. You may show slow way of life (idleness), or any other kind of slow you…

TRANSIENCE OF WATER

The greatest resource this Earth still holds is transient, isn’t it.   Recently, Jo told me that she would be happy to visit some of Croatian waterfalls. This one is for her. Please join her (if you haven’t already) for her walk around lovely Llandudno. Prompted by weekly photo challenge: transient.

THURSDAY’S SPECIAL: S-CURVE

  Curves are nice, attractive and fun, aren’t they? I love them too,  especially in nature. This image comes from Croatian National Park – Plitvice Lakes. If you want to visit it, just follow the snake.  ©Paula Borkovic   To join the Thursday’s Special photo challenge you are supposed to: Make a photo post on today’s theme, before next Thursday. Link to this challenge…

THURSDAY’S SPECIAL: PORTRAIT VS. LANDSCAPE

  Today you are invited to post a portrait and landscape format of the same scene. You may be surprised at how much different they look and what each one reveals. That’s the only requirement for this challenge. The subject is up to you. Have a great day!   Paula Borkovic   Not sure how to participate in Thursday’s Special photo challenge? Follow these four…

LIGHT CATCHER

I like walking at dusk and after the dusk to see how different places look under artificial lights. Here are two captures of the same scene, one with and one without a passing tram.   ©Paula Borkovic    I thought it would be a good idea to take Jo for a night walk through the centre of Zagreb. This is linked to her Monday…
