The Sunday Challenge

The Sunday Challenge
3 of a Kind

I don't know why, but this was a tough one for me this week, just deciding on a subject and then being happy with the outcome after leaving it until the last minute. Urk!!

This is a photo I took of a framed photo in my house. I took it in color using manual focus and then converted it to black and white. I also did a little p.p. using PicMonkey.

3 Beatles and the age old question.... who is your favorite? Hopefully you can tell by my focus. (Of course I love them all and it really pained me leaving John out of this shot, but I had to think for myself, right?

Song written by my fav:

I love this! I agree, it was quite difficult to come up with objects that would work for this challenge. The Beatles are an icon for our generation, and a wonderful choice for the challenge, Karen! :-)

It was crazy Val!! I tried so many different things, the great side effect being that I also learned some things I didn't know before.

Thanks for your nice comment. Your entry is fantastic!

Thanks for saying that Paul. It felt almost sacrilegious leaving him out, but it was for the challenge. I'm sure he'd understand, he was such a good soul.

lol, I really appreciate them all too. It's interesting to hear how Ringo influence your drumming.

Wow, you are so lucky to have seen them twice. I have a sister who saw them in Seattle and even hopped on to the back of their limo and looked at Paul through the window lol.
