A photo challenge starting January 5th 2009. One image only, normal size restrictions apply (1000 pixel maximum width or height recommended - if vertical we suggest 700 pixels maximum width). No followup images (comparisons) except by those who have not already posted their one image. Discussion welcome - please only repeat images in discussion posts if absolutely essential. Aster has been appointed moderator of this forum in recognition of her commitment to making it great fun. This does not prevent others from setting challenges!

Every time I visit the flower or macro thread, or one of the excellent other topics with flowers as a main subject, I wonder what I can do to contribute something original. The problem for me being how to take an original photograph of a flower? Something not shown before on PCA, something I worked hard on that emphasizes the beauty, color or function of these wonderful subjects. That would be a real challenge for me: make an original photo of a flower.
Anyone see a challenge in that? It's the perfect season for it for all you around and above the equator!
