The purpose of these challenges is to encourage us to get out and get the best shot of an assigned subject. It's a great way to enhance your photography skills.
Even if you think you take crappy pictures, please join in. Those of you just reading the forum and not posting, this is your chance to join in and show off.

We are always looking for ways to increase participation. To that end, this month you will have a choice of 2 themes.

This month's challenge: "Uranus" or "Zebras in the Wild"

Only rules:
It has to be taken by you.
It has to be taken in Upstate NY. *

A winner will be selected based on the following criteria:
-freshness (have we seen it somewhere before or did you take it just for this challenge? - we prefer the latter!)
-frame
-subject
-creativity
-use of color (or lack thereof)
-uniqueness

* Photos taken outside of Upstate NY are welcome for display as long as they are labeled as such.
I am strong, because I've been weak.
I am fearless, because I've been afraid.
I am wise, because I've been foolish.

hmmm.... for either of those subjects, I'm going to need a very long lens, as both almost hardly ever can be seen clearly in New York State.
