Picture Inspired Contest #8

 

 

It has been quite a while since I have held a contest,

so here I am with some interesting picture prompts.

 

 

 

Here are the choices:

 

 

 

1.  http://www.artwanted.com/imageview.cfm?ID=707696 

 

2. http://www.artwanted.com/imageview.cfm?id=815040 

 

3. http://www.artwanted.com/imageview.cfm?id=812094

 

4. http://www.artwanted.com/imageview.cfm?ID=425231&IRV=2

 

5. http://www.artwanted.com/imageview.cfm?ID=743417&IRV=2

 

 

 

 

Please write a poem using one of the choices above. Put the number of

the picture you have chosen, in your author notes.

 

 

 

 

I will judge fairly, no favoritism here.

 

 

 

Good luck.

 

 

 

 

P.S.- You don’t have to put the picture on with your poem, but if you want to, the only way you can copy the picture from this site, is by copy/pasting it into an e-mail to yourself, and then putting it into your picture file from the e-mail.

    Hmmm I believe I am inspired. This is a great contest.
    I'm not familiar with this site though; is it a photo-sharing site like photobucket, or more like deviantart where someone posts their own objects of creativity?
    Believe it or not this question is crucial to my entering the contest.

    I believe that the site is a place where unknown artists post their work, and are also able to sell their work from the site.

    Glad you are inspired by the pictures I chose.
