Behind the Action, for Lens Artists Challenge

For Lens Artists Challenge: Behind

Backgrounds add so much to a photo, either by contrast or by adding to the story. Sometimes just by their very blankness, they emphasize the main object. A vivid color may make the foreground object stand out. A pale color may direct ones eye to the object or person being presented.  The background may be an interesting pattern or something going on that builds the mood or plot of the photo. A friend says some of these photos do not belong. If you agree, let me know which ones. It is my feeling that each has an object or being in the foreground, some being farther in the foreground than others. And in all cases, I feel there is an aspect of the background that meets  the before-mentioned criteria.

Welcome to “The Numbers Game #25”  Today’s number is 146. To play along, go to your photos file and type that number into the search bar. Then post a selection of the photos you find under that number and include a link to your blog in my Numbers Game blog of the day. If instead of numbers, you have changed the identifiers of all your photos into words, pick a word or words to use instead, and show us a variety of photos that contain that word in the title.

This prompt will repeat each  Monday with a new number. If you want to play along, please put a link to your blog in comments below.

Schefflera Bloom For FOTD

 

Schefflera actinophylla, umbrella tree

Although I had these trees in California, they never bloomed like this. I love seeing them but have none around my house. This photo was taken at my friends Harriet and Paul’s house.
