Weekly Photo Challenge: Hope

Photo courtesy of Sara Rosso
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.
3. Subscribe to The Daily Post so that you don’t miss out on weekly challenge announcements. Sign up via the email subscription link in the sidebar or RSS

I like having long hair, but almost two years ago I cut off 10 inches. Read about why here: http://mariacristinanl.wordpress.com/2012/01/30/weekly-photo-challenge-hope/
Hope was an easy and interesting topic to photograph for, so I couldn’t help myself and posted 3 different pictures –

Here is my weekly challenge Hope photo.

Sorry it is so large. I am new to this and will have to learn how to edit better.
It’s easier if you create a post on your page with the photo embedded, instead of giving the direct link to the jpeg. If you check out other’s entries, you will see what I mean. Creating a post for your image will also allow others to like and comment on it.
Love the tree…a wittle birdy must have dropped a seed..Love the Daily Post too…

Here is my second entry into this weeks’ Hope photo challenge: “Rising Sun” at
https://fstopfantasy.wordpress.com/
Hope is when the rising sun pushes the dark clouds away.
Hope is when the seeds of yesterday rise up and push towards the sky.
Hope is when the bright rays of daylight push the dark clouds of ignorance away.

Hi All,
For this week’s challenge, I captured hopeful signs blossoming in an urban desert, in the middle of a harsh “economic winter”.

Here’s my little two cents on hope. I thought this was perfect, given I had just learned what the challenge was fit before seeing this sign.

Leaving it to the last minute, but here it is! Its the last photo of my lemon tree that has survived two weeks without water. She last all of her leaves but with loving care I’ve brought her back and she is now showing her new shoots:

Also, does it have to be a new photo? I still had fun finding this one.
Fairly stereotyped but nevertheless a nice one: Look at the kids’ faces..

I think that it’s quite difficukt to find a photos corresponding to the theme “Hope”: I’ve been thinking about this one:

There was a waiting photo challenge in December.
Well, for those of us who are newbies, it’s something to do while we wait around for the actual challenge to come out!
I decided to do a waiting one too while we’re all waiting! http://ayearinmyshoes.wordpress.com/2012/02/04/waiting-for-the-photo-challenge/
Hopefully waiting for Spring
