Cee’s Fun Foto Challenge: Fire
29 Jan 2013
This week your challenge is to show off a few photographs of the Chinese Element of Fire.
Fire/Summer: Heat, Light, Lava, Radiation, Sparks, Plasma, Explosions, Burn, Blaze, Oil, Ash, Smoke, Glass, Napalm, Sun, Matter
For those of you who know anything about the Chinese 5 elements, I have each element highlighted for the next five weeks. For those who like to plan ahead, you can keep this in mind when you have your camera in hand..
Chinese 5 Elements
- Metal/Autumn: Lightning, Magnetism, Electric, Rust, Gold, Silver, Steel, Iron, Platinum, Titanium, Copper, Bronze, Brass, Blood, Stars, Diamond, Energy. Here is a link to Metal.
- Water/Winter: Sea, Ice, Storms, Rain, Steam, Fluid, Sound, Mist, Acid, Salt, Time, Pressure, Moon, Mirror, Snow, Frost, Sugar. Here is a link to Water.
- Wood/Spring: Tree, Wind, Moisture, Air, Minerals, Ink, Mind, Rubber, Paper, Plants, Poison, Wax, Dissolve, Carbon, Clouds, Health, Space. Here is a link to Wood.
-
Fire/Summer: Heat, Light, Lava, Radiation, Sparks, Plasma, Explosions, Burn, Blaze, Oil, Ash, Smoke, Glass, Napalm, Sun, Matter
- Earth/Harvest: Clay, Rock, Dust, Sand, Mud, Crystal, Powder, Shadow, Space, Darkness, Gravity, Bone, Silicon
So lets show off some of your own photos that highlight fire. ENJOY!!
Next week will be the last of our Chinese 5 Elements. So I thought the next few weeks we would concentrate on colors. So here are the next four topics.
- Black and white photos
- Red and White
- Rainbow Colors (must have at least 4 strong colors)
- Color of Your Choice: Pick one color and have it be your favorite.
How It Works?
- Most weeks I will come up with a topic and along with a tip on how to take a better photo. Feel free to write me with things you want to learn about.
- Go through you photo archives and see what photos you have that fits the current week’s challenge, or better yet grab you camera and take a new photo!
- ENJOY and have FUN.
Create a Cee’s Fun Photo Challenge post
- Then add a link to your blog in my comment box.
- To make it easy for others to check out your photos and post, title your blog post “Cee’s Fun Foto Challenge” tag.
- Remember to Follow My Blog to get your weekly reminders.
I usually will respond to your entry on your blog, rather than on my page.
Please check out my Cee’s Fun Foto Challenge to check out more of what this challenge is about. Please check our my new Foto Gallery Page that feature just the photographs that I have used for these challenges.
I’m not a real good photographer of the sun or nighttime flames. So I hope you enjoy what I have come up with. Here are some is my selection for the week. As always, you can click on any of the photos to view a full sized slide show.
Hugs and blessings
Cee

Here’s my contribution: http://tamaraeckstadt.wordpress.com/2013/01/29/cees-fun-foto-challenge-fire/ It’s kind of a double whammy, since I just did a post this morning about fire. I included a link to my “full story” post within the Challenge post. Does that make sense?
Jan 29, 2013 @ 12:28:16
Fun!
