Photo Hunt - triangle
The theme for the week's Photo Hunt is free. For a lighter image the above pic is of one of my favourite ties. For a darker image below is a pic of three war graves
I really like the contrast between these two photos. Sorry to read that there's more surgery coming up but wishing you a speedy and easy recovery. Happy weekend!
Interesting. The first photo obviously fits the triangle theme. For the second photo, it took a while to realize that those grave stones make three points of triangle. Thanks for making me look long.
Very colourful triangles! Happy weekend :)
ReplyDeletebeautiful tapestry of triangles.

ReplyDeletethe tie is so pretty I thought it was a quilt the second shot is sobering
ReplyDeleteLovely. Haven't worn a tie in ages. Oh and those grave stones are creepy.
ReplyDeleteNice take! I didn't play this week but found out the same theme was played last year ;) Enjoy your weekend!

i never thought that the 1st pic was a tie. nice one.
ReplyDeleteColorful triangles, I like it!
ReplyDeleteThere must be a "zillion" triangles if one is bothered to count.
ReplyDeleteThe first photo looks like a macro of a quilt! Heaps of bright triangles! And the second one is a sadness we should never forget!
ReplyDeleteI had a similar thought with Greyscale but nice, colorful triangles on your tie! Have a nice weekend, Jams.

That is a tie! I thought it was a quilt. Very colorful. The graveyard is also very poignant.
ReplyDeleteThat's a cool tie. Very detailed for a geometric.
ReplyDeleteBoth ends of the colour spectrum, and both lovely photos
ReplyDeleteBoth are great for the theme :-)
ReplyDeletea vibrant tapestry of triangles.:p
ReplyDeleteenjoy the weekend!
I thought the first one was a quilt too. The gravestone pic is very atmospheric.
ReplyDeleteThe triangle tie is calling for a night out on the town. It took me a moment to see the triangle composition in the second photo.
ReplyDeleteI am not really good with 3D images. Most of the time I missed the right objects.
