There's a new challenge in town, hosted by Mary (GMFTS), called Gallery Inspiration.

It's a cool challenge in that your inspiration is picked for you by another player. Marci picked one for me, and I have to admit, it was kind of a doozy. I don't work with circular photographs much, so this was a bit outside my comfort zone.

I also wanted to redo my Color challenge this month, since ONCE AGAIN, I managed to get it posted BEFORE the start time. :-P

I ALSO wanted to get the 5 Ingredients + Yours knocked out. The "arrow" has been haunting my dreams.

So that's what this little page is all about. Getting some challenge specs off my desk and into my gallery.

Thanks for taking a peek!
