Nah, you'd be wrong whatever the time or place.

I'm sure you forgive me. ;)

But of course... :) More importantly, God will too. Just ask.

But which one...there are so many.

Indeed. I'm a pantheist, pagan agnostic but i do recognise that Hawkeye is all for one of the forgiving abrahamic ones so all power to him i guess. I'm not sure that he would accept my beliefs as being on an equal level as his though, abrahamic gods are notoriously fussy and jealous sometimes, but forgiveness is one of the better ideals of the Christian faith.

Wow you guys are deep. When I suggested this challenge I really wasnt thinking of the man verses God thing. I was thinking for nature that birds make nests, and bees make honey and nests, and fruit on trees, and wild flowers and things like that. Man makes buildings and planes and space ships and fences and barns and cars and that kind of thing. Pretty simple stuff. But if you want to dig deep for your submission then that is great to!

Makes sense to me. This is a good challenge suggestion. :-D

I'm not going in there! It's scary as hell! But you're quite right, not the place for it here, even in half-jest as we were, so i apologise for going off topic. Also, apologies to Hawkeye for any offence caused. Now, back to the Man/Nature conversation.

Don't worry about it sweetbread. If you didn't have a genuinely intriguing topic suggestion, it wouldn't have been chosen. You can disregard the more extreme elements of this website, most of the time :D

Well, it was grumpy + drunk. But it was this really....

>>>So...basically we can enter a pic of pretty much anything?<<<<

No, we enter a photograph that explores the concept of 'Man-made' or 'Nature-made' . Not just a photo of something that is man made or made by nature. This is easily grasped by 12 year olds doing photography or art at school but i feel at DPC it falls by the wayside.

Like i say, grumpy!

well I don't think I'm grasping it but it doesn't matter. I'm on percocet and valium for a back problem and I only had a chance to shoot once so I'm entering it anyways. Cheers! :)
