Water: Weekly Photography Challenge
This week your photographic challenge is to take and share a photo on the theme of ‘Water’.
Interpret the theme any way that you wish – you might like to hit the beach, take some seascapes or coastline photography , photograph a waterfall, photograph some water reflections, shoot some water drops, go do some underwater photography or take some other approach to the theme.
It is totally up to you – just make sure water somehow is incorporated in your shot.
Once you’ve taken and selected the ‘water’ image that you’d like to share – upload it to your favourite photo sharing site or blog and either share a link to it or – embed them in the comments using the our new tool to do so.
If you tag your photos on Flickr, Instagram, Twitter or other sites with Tagging tag them as #DPSWATER to help others find them. Linking back to this page might also help others know what you’re doing so that they can share in the fun.
Also – don’t forget to check out some of the great shots posted in last weeks challenge – Get High challenge where there were some great shots submitted.

Here’s one of mine from last winter.
Cold, no sunrise – you’d think that Mother Nature would be a little more forgiving when someone has made the effort to drive 30 miles to the beach before 06:00 in winter.
