Monsoon or rain was the very first theme on this thread, no point repeating.

Since the current theme was too easy, we are thinking of a tough theme for August. Water drop will be too easy.

How about long exposures? I don't know if it is already covered earlier. It's not that easy (for me at least

).

"Long exposure" has already been covered. For the complete list, please check the first post.

the picture is very nice. gives a kind of oil painting feel. have you done any PP on it? personally, i'm more attracted to the two windows than the "gutar goos"!

Thanks IronH4WK! you are right about the PP, the grain and noise in the picture is deliberate (Photoshop CS2).

No idea about the plant name it was all round us in the resort we stayed in Wayanad last week.

The Theme: Wind
Period: August 1st 2010 - August 31st 2010

Wind is obviously transparent, therefore you have to shoot such that the presence of wind is clearly visible. BTW, smoke doesn't count. Don't use smoke or smoke stack to indicate wind.

Example: Here the coconut fronds show the fury of strong wind.
