I might try to photograph this line, for example for the Literary Challenge.

"...nobody, not even the rain, has such small hands"
-ee cummings

from "somewhere i have never travelled... "

Man that's gonna be hard but fun if I can it off.

I have four days left to come up with something....or it's off the The Da Vinci Code... ;)

ummmm...so how are you going to title it in order to preserve your anonymity, now?

Otherwise, it sounds like a very good personal challenge. Poetry is so rich! If I manage to shoot this one, I'll most likely select from the modern poets as well.

That was just an example of what I have in mind... I will not use that line, of course. Sorry if that wasn't clear.

I'm interested in sharing ideas or approaches that some of you might have for this Challenge. This is the first time I've been inspired or excited by a Challenge in a while.

Ah, gotcha. My method? First, shake the repetitive tune playing in my head (Neil Young's "Harvest Moon"). Second, sit down with Norton's Anthology of Poetry left over from my college days. Third, find one really compelling line that I can relate to the people and places I'm likely to encounter where I live. Fourth, hope for the best. ;-)

I finally get to put my English major to some use!
