“maybe that’s why i’m partly yellow
it’s no excuse, though
it really isn’t
what you should be is not yellow at all”

Photo 101 on WordPress had consequences.

One, there were others, was being invited to join Justine’s Eclectic Corner, a select group of bloggers, writers, poets, photographers and errr…me (yes, go figure)

So each week, a challenge is laid down.

The first week’s challenge was “guessing game”, the idea was that other members of the group should seek to guess the subject matter of a photo in the style of a “wrinkle”.

Many of the guesses came very close.

As you can see. Below and to the left.
