I think that's do-able.

I didn't even think about those still 'un'bloomed.

Silly me!

OK, the theme will be 'Moderator cut: see post below', but with the weather here in NC this week it feels more like fall!

I'm going to wait for others to weigh in on the other suggestions before we roll the contest out.

Maybe we could make flowers a theme later in the year?

Those of you up north - do you have cut flowers available in your area? I know this winter there were times when I really wanted to photograph some flowers, so I bought some and put them in a vase.

You are AWESOME Alpha Male! I like you better than I like cold toilet seats in winter! Reppers for you.

They can play the role of "ha ha, I win, nya nya! " But seriously, I don't see why they should be banished from the tribe. Let them have a chance to go for repeat, threepeat, then dynasty four wins in a row! Why not! It's all in fun anyway.

Even though it looks like I can't participate, I think that is a great idea, funny I was thinking about that as a theme. I think flowers would great for a future contest.

How 'bout "Still Life"? That way, the dead flowers (as in silk flowers) would count?

BTW, what would fall under "architecture"? Do front doors count as architecture?
