Weekly Photo Challenge: Distorted

Distorted. The ice cubes in the photo are actually in focus. It’s the view beyond them which has been distorted by the glass. But you don’t have to take the theme distorted so literally – perhaps something is actually distorting your picture, or perhaps your perception, feelings, or outlook is what distorts what you’re aiming your camera at. Get creative!

Share a picture that means DISTORTED 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 the “postaday″ tag.

  5. Interesting distorted view nevertheless. It’s great the way we are sometimes challenged to open our minds and change our perceptions somewhat.

  33. Sorry for the late post (again). I went out with husband yesterday. I sometimes feel I wish I have more time to spend my blogsite.

  34. My blog post this week could be considered “Distorted”. It’s an image I photographed underexposed on purpose to prevent the white’s from becoming overexposed. Processed in Nik and Topaz software with added textures, the finished image looks very different then the image straight out of the camera.
