Default September Photo Assignment

The topic is "paths". We'll keep it broad so it can be anything from sidewalks, highways, roads, trails, tracks, etc.

We'll stick with rules as previously stated (unless someone has other suggestions):

You must be the photographer, and it must be taken this month. Use whatever camera you have with you at the time.

Photo manipulation of contrast, lens correction (chromatic aberration, pin cushion, etc), exposure, brightness, color, sharpness and crop are allowed. "Chopping" something into the image is not allowed, as tempting as that may be with the full moon this week. HDR is allowed as is 'stacking' if you want to do some star trails

You may submit several images to get feedback, but by the deadline you must edit it down to one for the voting poll.

Use of Smart phone apps is allowed. No borders but filters are ok. Also vignettes are okay unless they are used as a frame.

Post 'em up!
I pulled the inspiration from WIN!sday



Deadline is Sept. 30th as usual.

Ok... and just to make sure, the photo has to have been taken in the month of September, right?

Besides beer and eating cheesy poofs?! Whoa.

Paths....hmmmm, should make for interesting pix.


Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth;

Then took the other, as just as fair,
And having perhaps the better claim
Because it was grassy and wanted wear,
Though as for that the passing there
Had worn them really about the same,

And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black.
Oh, I marked the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way
I doubted if I should ever come back.

I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I,
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.

Robert Frost

Reminds me of my old DOS days with computers. In the autoexec.bat file you would have to put in a path line to the programs.

path=c:\wordperfect\wp.exe;c:\dos;c:\menu\menu.bat

etc

Come on guys it was a picture....if you want to change the rules on the fly and judge others get your own thread. This was supposed to be an open area for photography fun and you two are being assess - stop it now!

Chillax, no one said you couldn't, your initial execution was flawed though (i.e. no pic) Shoulda left it up.

It's all good around here
