Hope. This tree, if you look closely, is growing out of a drain. That drain is on top of a train platform overhang. Cement for miles, yet this life took root here. Hope from me taking the picture & still finding wonder in these things, and hope from the tree, to grow.

Share a picture that means HOPE to you! 

New to The Daily Post? Whether you’re a beginner or a professional, you’re invited to get involved in our Weekly Photo Challenge to help you meet your blogging goals and give you another way to take part in Post a Day / Post a Week. Everyone is welcome to participate, even if your blog isn’t about photography.

Here’s how it works:

1. Each week, we’ll provide a theme for creative inspiration. You take photographs based on your interpretation of the theme, and post them on your blog anytime before the following Friday when the next photo theme will be announced.

2. To make it easy for others to check out your photos, title your blog post “Weekly Photo Challenge: (theme of the week)” and be sure to use a “postaday2011″ or “postaweek2011″ tag.

      1st they ruined the tag-system, now they messed it all.

      February 4, 2012
    • Nothing been posted yet as such, not know the reason, some have joined in on ‘Waiting’ suggested by me as a comment but some have posted their good photo,

    Is it just me, I’m a 3 week old novice with this photo challenge, but is it really difficult finding the newest post challenge theme for 2/3/2012? I thought there was a post and the new theme was “late.” However, I can’t find it using google. Do “they” need to do a better job it locating/posting the weekly challenge; especially through a search engine.

    February 4, 2012
    • I know what you mean. I looked and looked, nothing. I thought it was me. I started my blog a couple of days a go to post my photos in the challenge then there’s no theme. Whats sup!!!!

      February 4, 2012
      • At least the responsible thing by “management” would be to say something.

        February 4, 2012
  6. so what’s next in weekly photo challenge? :)

    February 4, 2012
  7. yeah… are the challenges over? *patiently waiting*

    February 4, 2012
  8. I think maybe we should reserve judgement…who knows what happened to whomever writes this blog. Accidents happen, as do unexpected illnesses. Obviously something went wrong. I just hope it was nothing serious. :(

      In times of super-internet with Twitter and whatever? They just offered iphone-posting. Probably their keyboards are frozen.

      February 4, 2012
    • I agree with Karina.

      February 4, 2012
    • We can always do our own. as we have so far,

      February 4, 2012
    • We can always do our own, as we have done in ‘Waiting’ but other suggestions and no doubt we would all join in. I agree with you. who knows

      February 4, 2012
      • There was already a post about waiting in December 2012, but I think the theme suits well now that many are waiting.
        If you read my post further up, you can always join in on the search for tattoos :)

        February 5, 2012
      • Yes I did read your piece but unfortunately I have no knowledge or pictures to participate in this topic. sorry. we will have to keep ourselves amused with varying topics and keep talking to each other.

        February 5, 2012
      • Right, and thank you for suggesting “waiting” as an option. Despite the fact that waiting was already done in December, I found it apropos, and it certainly doesn’t hurt to repeat a theme. Thanks again!

        February 5, 2012
      • Well thank you for responding, I am relative newbie and did not do Waiting before..

        February 5, 2012
      • I hadn’t done it either! :) I’m new too! So I’m all for it. I just mentioned it was done before because that’s been mentioned by others, and I don’t think it matters.

  11. This is my first “Weekly Photo Challenge” I’ve taken part in! I’m a bit late but fortunate enough that the next Photo Challenge isn’t up yet!! So this is my Wintery addition to the theme of “Hope”. :-)

  13. I decided to go with waiting too, though i know there is an ‘official’ challenge. I like the way people here talked and came up with suggestion and solutions.

  14. The pause in this week’s challenge announcement gave me the opportunity to find what I was looking for for last week’s! “Hoping” it old school. http://wp.me/p1Bz9K-97

  16. I am still trying to understand this… I want to publish this photo on my page but cannot figure out how. This is a photo, of a principal explaining to a child about a construction site. That trailer in the background IS the school for now – because the number of students is so high that they can’t fit. There is a playground beside this construction site, fenced off. And the kids went back and forth from trailers to the playground watching the construction equipment. These construction men must work around grade schools kids with huge equipment… http://michelinda.wordpress.com/?attachment_id=21

  17. As this entry will show, with the help of Zen and meditation, hope is staying strong in my life http://wp.me/pBbcr-f5 This entry is quite late, but I’m learning to let go. Thanks for viewing!

  18. I still do not find my entered photo, nor do I see how I tag it w/ postaweek2012? I can viewpostaday, why can’t I view postaweek?

    ¡Aún en un pavimento brotes de esperanza!
