Welcome to Week 81 of the Tuesday Photo Challenge.

You proved that even the sky is not the limit in last week’s responses, as you brought out the WOW-factor in terms of creativity and photography skills!  So, for this week’s theme I wanted to go in a very different direction.  The image that inspired this week’s theme is one that I have come back to for years, and still like; thus you get the theme of Broken!

Your challenge is to find that around you, which is broken, yet still beautiful.  Of course, you can take broken into many directions, such as physical or emotional, or a sequence… You will figure out exactly what strikes a chord with you!  Have fun with this!

Here’s the image that I mentioned…

Broken Wheel

I think this image is from around 2004, as I just had bought my EOS 10D; as my wife and I were checking out a herding event on a farm, I noticed this broken wheel just off the path. It just had to be photographed!

The full rules of this challenge are in TPC Guidelines, but here’s the tl;dr:

  • Write a post with an image for this week’s topic
  • Please tag your post with fpj-photo-challenge (if you’re not sure about how tags work, please check out this WordPress article about tagging posts)
  • Create a pingback link to this post, so that I can create a post showing all of the submissions over the week (note: pingbacks may not appear immediately, as my site is set up to require approval for linking to it; helps against previous bad experiences with spamming)
  • Have fun creating something new (or sharing something old)!!

I’m looking forward to seeing what catches your eye this week…

  18. Thanks! The follow came as a pleasant surprise.

    1. I didn’t realize that I hadn’t followed you yet 🙂 I like your blog, so it makes sense to follow 🙂

  19. Lovely photo, the colors are so fine, luminous, they somehow emphasize the textures nicely making the wheel look… not broken. 🙂 Challenging theme, too, I can’t wait to put together my entry for this week.

    1. Thank you very much, Nicole! I look forward to seeing what your entry will be this week.

  20. Beautiful photo, Frank, and excellent focus. Relates very much to forgiveness. <3 I am in.

  24. Hi Frank, although summer is really not far away and still somehow in my mind, season’s change can not be ignored. So my broken contribution is taking place in the Ore Mountains where there is right now already a bit winter with a little bit snow. But I show an elusive winter idyll here:
