2014 Challenge, Week 40: LANDSCAPE - SOLO - The 2022 Trevor Carpenter Photo Challenge

Right up front I’m going to explain the “solo” concept, since everyone is probably wondering what I mean.

I mean I want to see any sort of landscape, preferably as wide as you can shoot, but I’m looking for a single object to stand out. A tree, creek, or even a road. Something distinctive to the range of the image. Now, make a point of not including multiples of the object.

So if you have a field of cows, just one. Same with hay bails or trees, or whatever you choose for your single object.

Now, landscapes should normally not include manmade objects. Feel free to fudge that a little for this one, it should make it easier. Also, for a bit more challenge, consider your composition, and even the single object’s contrast with the foreground and background, so that it sticks out. I chose the word “SOLO”, instead of just a description because I’m looking for your single object to stand out so much in the image, that it’s your solo; think music.

The rules are pretty simple:

Post one original (Your Image) shot each week per theme posted on this blog to Google+, Facebook, or Flickr (or all three). Tag the photo #photochallenge.org. or #photochallenge2014.
The shot should be a new shot you took for the current weekly theme, not something from your back catalog or someone else’s image.
Don’t leave home without your camera. Participating in the 2014 Photo Challenge is fun and easy.
