After I posted my first entry, I remembered the fun I had taking photos of the 2013 Tour de France…from the comfort of my home. I was enthralled by the colors and blurs that I saw from a certain angle while viewing the competition on my laptop. I think this photo of the screen of my laptop aptly shows both the speed at which the ride occurs and the effort put into every stage.

I like your interpretation. For once, I’m struggling with the challenge. 🙂
I know, Judy. I had a few photos in mind, but I have so many that it would take ages to find them. I did find a second one that I really like, so I entered that as well, even though I rarely do two. I’m sure you’ll find something. If not, find a great photo and move your camera a bit while shooting. 🙂

Like this shot, Janet! Very cool! 🙂
You’d laugh if you saw how many I took, Amy. I kept thinking, “Wow, it looks great from that angle” or something else and kept on taking “just one more.”
Can’t imagine watching this exciting race! 🙂
Last summer we got to see a stage in person while in France. Despite the bad weather, it was a marvelous experience…and gave me a number of blog posts as well. 🙂

What an intriguing photo!
I’m glad you like it. I was fascinated by the way the real picture looked when viewed from a different angle, making this shot.

very artsy and I like how you shared how this unfolded – 🙂
Sorry your comment got kicked into spam, but I found it and thanks! 🙂

I wonder how that spam thing works – and well, thanks for checking there – I have started to peek there more often because twice I found legit ones too – and well, thanks….
The ways of the spam filter are unknowable and the best thing is to just check every day. 🙂
janet
or check at least once a week because mine does not empty every day…
and was thinking of you when two teens pulled out their phones near the end of dinner – ummm = nope. keep them put away – it is face time still…. ha!
Oooh, Janet, I really like this entry. I agree with Issy, psychedelic feel to it as well. 😀
Wishing you a joyous and blessed Easter!
Save to you, Becca.

Haha! Very clever. I’ve loved the Tour, too, until Lance and all of those dope fiends ruined it for me. But it made for an imaginative photo!
I know what you mean, especially about Lance, who turned out to be something worse than a drug user: a despicable person. I’m hoping that more and more riders will be riding clean now, although when you see what they have to accomplish, the temptation to get a bit of help must sometimes be almost overwhelming.
