How much courage does one need?

I thought this is it! A competition of photographs taken in Pemberton. And, we had spent 4 days there in late December. So, surely I could find some suitable snaps. And I thought I could.
For instance this one...nature's bell! Great in this size but try and blow it up to be printed then maybe it is not of competition value.

Then again this one...the threatening weather taken from the sand dune aspect.

I tried to register it but it wasn't wide enough! never mind I told myself, it
remains a favourite of mine.
The picnic table below you've seen before, no matter, it exudes peace in my mind so it won't attract a judge's opinion.

 This next one just might be too busy but it shows me that life and growth will go on no matter who or what tries to call a halt to it. There must be life where
you never expect to find it.





Another favourite of mine! Blackboys and cloud formations.











And of course, sand dunes. Not out of Africa but right here amongst the trees of Pemberton.

 And that is exactly one of the three themes of the Pemberton Photographic Competition. So why aren't I rushing to enter? Simple! The one time I have endless choices for the competition I won't be around when the dates for the competition begin and finish. Oh well I still love my photos so much that I will probably find a spot for them on my own walls. That is the least I can do. Maybe I'll enter some of them in the clubs' competitions too.
This one of the grasses is called 'In the Wild'. I liked the angles. Guess where it was taken.....
