Liz Hammond @lizhammond gave me this get pushed challenge:
"The challenge is to shoot a B&W image on one (or more) of the following themes:
1. Fool gold
2. Go for broke
3. Icing on the cake
4. Up a blind alley
Will be interested to see if the Dinos & gang get to feature, have fun."
So, I did enlist the help of the dinosaurs (remembering my promise to them to not be as neglectful of them as I had been the last three weeks).
Here the Allosaurus tries his hand at one of Dan's video games. He's better than I am (I'm a zero at that), but I'm afraid he's going up a blind alley with no way to get out before his character get's killed.
@lizhammond Here's a response to the challenge. (confession -- I forgot about the B&W element until I had already taken and edited the shots. Re-read your challenge and, oops...better convert to B&W! If I have a chance to shoot the third one I have in mind tomorrow, I'll compose it in black and white.)
Hi Mary, well done - that is a really clever take on the challenge - a virtual blind alley. Never dreamt you'd come up with that!
You might not have shot for B&W but I like the way the Allosaurus tonally blends into the image from the game. I don't know if it would have done that in colour.
