Round Robin Challenge: Rear View



"The past is never where you think you left it."

~Chuck Palahniuk

RRC: The Rear View

Time for a new Round Robin Photo Challenge, and this time the subject is one I suggested to Karen recently, The Rear View. The idea is simple, take a picture of something behind you. I suggested this subject because with the new year freshly upon us, I find myself leaving a lot of old thoughts and actions behind me. I am feeling much more positive this year, as I have learned to let go of the things bothering me the most. Anyway, enough of that, on with the photography...

A Tree Behind Me...


The Rear View Of Some Well Dressed Mannequins...


Empty Seats Behind Me At The Theater...


And Now For Something A Littler More Literal...

(The Rear View Image Of A Late Autumn Tree, Out Of My Beloved Old Car 2005)

The Rear View Of A Pair Of Teddy Bear Pals...


The first photo was taken a couple weeks ago, in Pleasanton, California. It looks more like a side photo, and it kinda was, but in order to get that angle I had to contort in a very uncomfortable position in order to capture any of the reflection in that beautiful window. So, I think it counts. Hopefully. 

Now that you have seen my contribution, be sure to pay a visit to all the Robins participating in this round. Simply click the link at the top of the page to be redirected to the official Round Robin Photo Blog. There you will find the participation link, and all the information you need to join in the challenge!

Mood: Happy
