Your challenge this week is to photograph something that represents a sense.

We all know about the Five Senses but Wikipedia describes sense in more depth...
"Human beings have a multitude of senses. In addition to the traditionally recognized five senses of sight (ophthalmoception), hearing (audioception), taste (gustaoception), smell (olfacoception or olfacception), and touch (tactioception), other senses include temperature (thermoception), kinesthetic sense (proprioception), pain (nociception), balance (equilibrioception) and acceleration (kinesthesioception)."

Have a think about it and see what you can come up with to give us a sense of your objective!

You must include the sense in the title of your image.

What about the sense of humour? Wikipedia obviously doesn't have one... ;) +1 on this by the way!

Great idea, but I would like to see it exclude the sense of sight, would make it a tad more interesting!

I'd like to see you try to include common sense! Because that is the one sense tat everyone has lost in these here modern times.

So, maybe have 2 challenges:
"The Five Senses" Photograph something that represents one of the Five Senses eg: Taste, Smell, Sight, Touch, Hearing.
"Not The Five Senses" Your challenge is to take a photograph of something that represents a sense but NOT one of the "Five Senses". Eg: A sense of direction, common sense, ESP, The sixth sense, Pain, Balance, Temperature, Drunkeness!
I think this is complicating things too much!
