Options I think are unique

Hello everyone,

PROMPT CHOICES:

1. the image above;
[found on google, searched with something around redwood trees]


2. I breathe differently than you

3. watermark on a morning window



Rules:

1. Please really dig deep into the one you choose, I'd like to be naturally impressed. Don't try to force it. Try to use imagery that moves me.
2. UPDATE: I forgot to say 'NO DARK' before, but it's one of my general rules.
3. Be respectful and keep it family appropriate.
4. No myth or anything too silly, however metaphors are accepted.
5. Nothing over 40 lines.
6. No spiritual, holidays.
7. DON'T choose your background from the THEME or TILED categories.


I may update if I feel need.
Am waiting to see your great entries, I may add points!
Daisy

Contest is Over

  • Contest was judged on August 26, 2008
  • Rewards: Gold: 500, Silver: 300, Bronze: 200
  • Final notes:
    Sorry for the extended time from normal... ahh, I've got to go through ANOTHER move probably by September 15.

    I did have much serenity with this contest-- I didn't expect so much variety with my second prompt, though that just proves that you guys sensed it enough to be original as I hoped for, right? Stimulated I got over all inspiration, and have even added points as promised if satisfied with the results.

    GOLD: "After the Dream" - About how you put a period at every line, each snippet is like, 'ok, you got this to ponder on... now try to fit this into the picture." "Darkness from behind closed lids" really incorporates the title for a different hour as well.

    SILVER: "Purpose" ~ When I read this a second time after relocating, I think I absorbed your images better because maybe, I wasn't so stressed. Time or an extremely abundant mind had to have been used, you, to slickly pen such history. It's long, but tight.

    BRONZE: "An Individual Breath" ... the sincerity... is worth more than this brevity, and "An Individual Breath" states that you are different if people watch your day's activities; as you don't want to turn your air available into debris.

    Please keep participating in the future; waiting three months isn't my usual circumstance, and thank you all once again,
    Daisy

    BUT... I LOVE the backgrounds from the themed and ESPECIALLY the tiled categories.

      I do too... there are only three BG's from the TILED category that bother me a bit, and a few are fine with me from the THEMED. But, I don't want risk of what I don't prefer, that's all.

      Hope you think of something to enter,
      Daisy
