PASSION: Weekend Photography Challenge
This weekend’s photography challenge is all about PASSION!

Image by Carlo Nicora
Your task is to take a photo on the theme of passion. It could be a photo of something or someone that you’re passionate about. It could be of a moment of passion (lets keep it family friendly :-)) or it come be some kind of play on words or something a little more cryptic.
So set yourself the challenge to take a ‘passion’ shot over the weekend. Once you’ve taken it – upload it to your favourite photo sharing site, tag it with #DPSPASSION so others can follow along (Linking back to this page might also help others know what you’re doing so that they can share in the fun) , then come back to the comments section below and share a link to your photo.
Looking forward to seeing what everyone comes up with!

I’ve got a Passion for these flowers!
They’re called Gazania and they seems to have a soul.They open theyr corolla when there’s the sun and they close it when there’s ugly weather or during the night. (I’m sorry for my bad english :P )

Passion means Romance to me, and both should be FUN! A little hide and seek never hurt anybody.

Nature always fascinate me. I love waking up in the morning and look out the window. Some days, the skies looks all the same, different each day yet not exceptionally outstanding. There are some days when I look through the window, and I am simply awed – all I wanted to do was to grab my camera and start shooting. Yes, that’s the passion that I have to capture these moments that capture my heart…at times even before I have even brushed my teeth in the morning :)

This photo was taken a while back, on a weekday tho’…
September 26th, 2009 at 12:16 pm
…and while we are at this, allow me to post one more photo that I took on a weekend :)
The previous one was of sunrise, this is of a sunset at a park with a thunderstorm looming near.

I have a passion for eyes. I love to see them in detail. Every person has beautiful eyes, each eye has its own particular charm. One of my sets at flickr is all about eyes. So here is my shot, taken a couple of days ago with my CyberShot W55. (I added some contrast with curves)
http://www.flickr.com/photos/zlamperti/3954949300/
I hope you like them :)

Hardly anything spells passion better than Tango !

That shot was taken 2 weeks ago in Buenos Aires so I don’t think it qualifies for the challenge, but I still felt like sharing it.

Romaing, I absolutely love your picture.
My father’s Uruguayan, and you’re absolutely right. there’s nothing sexier or more passionate than tango.

As we’ve said, “Passion” comes in many forms. Doing something you love, no matter the price you pay, says passion to me. The look on the face says more about passion than you imagine.

Passion to me is when an antisocial boy meets the girl of his dreams, and getting that very first kiss.

So I feel that I must preface this post by explaining that this is at our camp where there is no electric (unless we bring the generator lol) and no running water. So I am VERY passionate about this!

Well, I’m not sure about how many pics can we submit.
I have 2 very special pics featuring 2 of my favorite persons in my life:
My cousin, who shows such a beautiful look when he’s with his girlfriend, this was a lucky shot the first day I used my camera:
http://www.flickr.com/photos/diana_arcuri/3964216686/
And this is one of my best friends, who posed a few days ago for me with her cosplays. She adores her cosplays and this is a photo I took of her surrounded by her props:

Big hugs!

I think many people would associate the colour red with passion and add to that a people’s passion for their country. I’m here in China as the whole nation prepares for the 60th anniversary celebrations. I took this on Nanjing Lu pedestrian shopping street in Shanghai. I feel it epitomizes Passion.

I found this challenge difficult..perhaps i am just not *Passionate* enough! And trying to decide if there was something overriding which i was passionate about was also difficult! I like so many things..so then I finally decided on this..something which has sofar lasted 10 years and still counting

I have just recently fallen in love with photography and this is the first photo I have uploaded, so I would love lots of feedback!!! What do you like about this photo? What do you not like about it? What could have I done different to enhance the photo? Or just some tips that might be useful in the future. -thanks
