Thanks, Luke, done. The mozzie is now my insect submission instead of OOF.

One to go and that will be set up tomorrow. My inspiration for it came from another submission, and once its in, you'll see why.

Bill, the only failure is in not trying. You have been trying all month long......no failure in that. Don't fret about it....you got some great images. And there's still plenty of time left should you feel the urge to keep at it.

I've been very glad of my "shopping list" on the iphone. Its made it very easy to keep track.

That is GREAT news Steve..... that photo bummed me out a little this morning. I understand the circle of life and all that jazz, but I always have a hard time with babies dying. So are they hand feeding the baby or did momma learn how to do her job properly?

I'm done. Just flooded the gallery with the rest of my images. Have to go on a business trip tomorrow so had to buckle it up.
Which forced me to shoot that "In the kitchen" prompt I've been avoiding for three weeks and left me with a weakest image in my set. C'est la vie, as they say:-)

It has been quite a ride, scavenging for prompts, attempting to see this through. Equally enjoyed the various takes on the same subjects and the creativity behind numerous interpretations.

To me, apart the kitchen already mentioned, the toughest nut to crack was "High point" which eluded me constantly. Many times I deleted a weak attempt on the subject. The somewhat stronger solution came toward the end, at the traffic light.

Contrary to those, I had "Black" in abundance and several times delegated a shot to other prompt.

And I'm still amazed by strokes of luck I had with some subjects, when wonderful opportunities presented themselves out of nowhere, like "Absence of people", "Insects", "10 P.M." or "Work".
Interestingly, all those happened while I was most carefree, just strolling around without a firm purpose, open to whatever might happen.

All in all, it was a great experience. A big thanks to Luke for starting all this up (and tending to us all) and equally to everybody that joined!

Well done! I have lots of "weak" images in my set, but really, sometimes there is no other option and something is better than nothing, on occasion.

Momma and baby happily taking care of business on their own!

I forgot to report in. I'm done: never thought I would get there, much less with days to spare.

I think I'm out. My computer has developed a major case of go slow. It takes forever to upload an image and trying to look and comment on anybody else's is next to impossible. If I can get the computer working properly again fairly quickly I may reconsider. Well done those who have already finished. I wish I could look at your pictures.
