Sole e la Luna

                Well happy readers, it is time to get a bit back on track. I delayed a post, and then went on a tangent. Now, it is almost the end of the week and therefore time to reveal this week’s theme. I believe this week’s theme was one I proposed to the group. I am not sure where the idea came from, but it seemed like a good idea at the time. It also seemed to be one that the group as a whole seemed interested in, which is probably why it was chosen when it came up in a vote. This week’s theme is sun and moon. It is one of the broader themes we have done, which was on purpose. Each lady could choose a photo of the sun, the moon, or both together. I admit the idea was originally of them both together, but being general makes the game less stressful and opens the pool of potential pictures. As a kid, my step mother at the time had a big thing for pictures of the sun and moon together. I therefore used to see lots of artwork with that theme and when I started drawing or doodling, I would often draw one or both of them. A sun is rather easy to draw. In fact, it is probably one of the first things little kids learn how to make. Surprisingly, a non full moon is difficult to draw. Mine never come out right for some reason. The theme seemed like a good idea in theory, and there have definitely been some great pictures. But it was a challenge to find pictures. There were about 15 that came up on the initial search, but it took some digging to find more. Usually, I can easily find really good pictures but I will dig to find different or more interesting ones. This time, the digging was needed more. Some of my pictures actually played off the theme, but didn’t include an actual sun or moon. For example, one was of sun and moon gods. The colors were there, and the concept, but not the actual orbs. It has all worked out thus far, and I don’t expect that to change for the rest of the week. So now I will show you some of the cool pictures I found. Enjoy and check back soon for the secondary theme of the week.
