THURSDAY’S SPECIAL: PICK A WORD – APRIL 2022

Posted on April 21, 2022

What follows is my monthly photo challenge titled Pick a Word. You may choose any of the given words (one or all or some of them) and interpret them in images that you took.

Looking for meanings in words, images and sounds

For this challenge I decided to post a photo I took while I was pretending to be a tourist in my own town. It was a fun experiment with some really cool finds like this one from the upper town which is very frequented by visitors all year around.

So here it is – my message or should I say “massage” from Zagreb 😀

P.S. You know the drill – post your contributions for this week’s theme before next Thursday and link here.

It is the first week in July and it is time for another PICK A WORD theme. Here are the words to choose from:

soaring

gaiety

prostrating

ephemeral

colossal

Note about my images:

#1 is the view I see every day getting out of my apartment

#2 I said recently that I would be focusing on happy faces around my town. It’s much needed with so many bad things going on.

#3 Prostrating is good – when you are exhausted you should prostrate and when you do, do it in a good company too.

#4 My everyday life isn’t glamorous. It’s mostly asphalt, concrete, steel and glass, but whenever I can, I visit a botanic garden and if I ‘m lucky I get to see this.

#5 My town is in the continent, but it doesn’t stop it from adopting a blue whale.

I hope you’ve enjoyed my selection of words and images. As usual for this theme, you can do one word, or more or all five. It’s up to you.

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.

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 Walk, but also to EVANESCENT weekly photo theme.

Also related to Cardinal Guzman’s Changing Seasons in May.

Here comes another month with a new set of words to choose from. I hope you like the selection and that you will find at least one word to work on. Here it goes:

confined

jazzy

patulous

momentous

serene
