What a fun theme! Here's a wooden gate with a rusty knob from East China:

Very nice picture, I congratulate you.

Here is my entry. A piece of old, dirty, paint-peeled wall with rusty metalwork in Merida, Mexico.

As everytime i go into the Amateur tier...

"Dandelion breaks through the street"

Quality went fucked by editing it...grml... and i was such an idiot to save it grml...

unbedeutendes.jpg

Perfect example of something insignificant trying to make a statement in this world. Great shot.

im so sorry i fucked the original...grml... so i have to reinsert the bad quality :((

Ohh! I like this one.. as the quote goes, bloom where you are planted.

This means earth has hope!

This comment was made from https://ulogs.org

Ohhh! This is surely a tough one but very challenging. This would bring up more attention to the little things that need more attention..

The search is on.. good luck to all!

This one will just require some creativity but can also produce some really amazing images. It will force you to look at things from a new angle. You will be surprised with the results and the stories that your pictures will tell.

yes i think its the story behind that matters especially coming from things that we often ignore..

Ah great theme this week, will try to get an entry in! Resteem!

Awesome. I am looking forward to your entry.

Looking different. Good shot.

Beginners Tier.
Mushrooms to me seem insignificant. They grow on the lawn when there is enough humidity. We stomp on them, get rid of them, tear them from the ground and throw them away. Yet how many times do we stop and focus on the beauty of it? What it means to this earth and to the insects that may feed on it.

The images you captured in your post just blow me away everytime I see your posts. I don't say it often as I am at times left speechless at the beauty of the image. You are a real artist, taking pictures and making the viewers see with their souls.

Thank you for the awesome submission and awesome comment. I always try to tell stories with my pictures and I am glad that you like them.

Yes, this is my topic. So that's why was so difficult to choose just one photo... I have many of them. You can check my series https://steemit.com/polish/@mespanta/nobody-needs-26-nikt-nie-potrzebuje-26-nikdo-nepotrebuje-26
This is the reason why this time I'm trying in "professional" cattegory, as I think that I'm professional in taking photos of insignifiant things ;)

This time on the picture is part of the really old building where I live. So I see it every single day. When we see something so often we don't see it as something extraordinary anymore.

PS. Thanks @phortun for writing me about this topic :)

We were walking on the Beach on Nusa Penida, a small island near Bali in Indonesia when we saw this beautiful red coral. I´ve seen bleached corals on the beach before but never such beautiful red one.

Tier: Amateur

Amazing! It doesn't look like any coral I have ever seen. Isn't the world just amazing and full of surprises?
It looks so fragile yet strong. Ok I'm gonna stop lol. Love the shot you took.

haha that´s alright, go on!! 😁

Thanks so much for your words!

I really liked your photo friend, the red color of the coral is very beautiful. @betterthanhome

I think it has it's own beauty and a certain kind of wonder imagining all the 1's and 0's racing towards a pin.

Nice theme. Here is a simple puddle with a frozen skin of ice on the top and some autumn leaves below. It was taken in Balsta, Sweden

I will go for the pro category this month.

Loving this competition @derangedvisions! Some unusual themes for selecting pictures I love it.

Will post in Amateur again.

I love ˋthe otherworldly magic in the ordinary details´ and to be able to catch this ˋdisplay of glory´ at night was a most welcome surprise :)

That is quite a challenge!

Great theme, Wes! I'm in!

Freedom

I think most people just see a flag blowing in the wind, but those who stop and think about what it means, realize it's the most powerful symbol of freedom in the United States, as well as giving respect for those lives lost defending it.

This sand art we saw next to Santa Monica Pier...quite interesting. So if you go there with your wife also check it if its still there ;) Enjoy your time together, Wes ;)

Such an ordinary piece of equipment but such a beautiful shot of it.

I saw this old chair hanging in my grandparents' barn one day and thought it was the most beautiful thing in the world but no one could understand why I thought it was so pretty.

This is my entry into the amateur tier.
♥ If I am not too late.

I love the light coming in from the back. Very interesting shot.

Thanks!!

My Entry

Para cabeza.jpg

For this entry I bring a head massager. Something very relaxing that makes you feel good. It serves to help with stress and headaches, apart it is very rich. It's like a brain masturbation :) Those who have used them know what I'm talking about. Greetings to all.

The Rings


Shooting weddings you have not to forget about certain small elements and especially about the rings. And have to try to make a photo of them in some artistic way

Here are two rings put on a brides flowers bouquet and shot with wide opened aperture blurring the silhouettes of the kissing bride and groom

Details matters!
