PhotoChallenge “Inside out / Outside in”
This weeks subject is suggested by Susu
Inside out / Outside in
I wasn’t sure what I would do with this challenge. I finally decided I would go with reflection and imagination.
The nice thing about photos is you can see some of the inside outs of things. This photo was taken in June at our local Hamilton County park, Lake Isabella. The reflection is “Inside Out” or “upside down”, does that count?
This is one of my favorite reflective photos taken in 2004 or 5 from inside the window of our local Skyline Chili Parlour. You can see portions of the restaurant in the window as well as the outside brought in thru the miracle of glass. I think this fits quite well for inside-out and outside-in.
This image was taken by a friend in the UK. It was given as a challenge to a group with the challenge to replace what was in the windows and then mask or cover up portions of the finished work. The nice thing about graphics is, you can take what exists and change it altogether so, in this graphic a variety of outsides in – thru – the – window.
This is my husband John doing some personal reflection while leaning on the fencing. The Window frame is in the UK and the outside being brought in is on a drive from Cincinnati to Ashland, Kentucky, USA to meet with a fellow Xangan, Wordwarrior39.
Here, the same UK window and our local lake at another Hamilton County park, Sharon Woods. I would like this view outside my livingroom window.
Here, the cats live at my daughter’s home in Virginia, the window is from the UK and my image peeking thru the window was taken to prevent boredom while driving in the car on our way either to or from Illinois, USA. All of the editing is done with Paint Shop Pro while I sit at my computer and I am situated in Ohio, USA. So, the miricle of digital, totally new images and some fun for all of it.

Becca, this is truly fantastic! Excellent editing and since you are using my kitchen window in some of them, I know exactly where you are coming from. You are raising my interest in editing again.
Very cool interpretation and great editing!
Great entry for the photo challenge!
Great editing job. I think your interpretation for this weeks challenge is great.
Wonderful stuff! I love the icicles.
Great photos! I love the second one!

WOW! that is so cool, I love the effect you got with those prints. Great job.
I saw the mention of Skyline and went OH YUM! Been forever since I had that! Great idea to use the reflections.
Yes , love all this! i have done some “looking throught a window” things too, its great to take a few different bits and pieces and create something with them, oh, and the view from the chilli parlour is so surreal!
Thanks for you nice comments, the header is a drawing i did of our house, plus a cartoon of my car, the trees in the background are in a friends garden and the rest i drew with photoshop.
and yes my entry is from inside the fridge, auto timer and the best shot from five!
Great idea and well accomplished!
I really know that what I had planned to post isn’t what was wanted after seeing all this.
great pictures (and editing too!!)
I love the second picture best… almost seeing the photographers “world” not just their photograph.
Thank you so much for the encouraging comments on my site. I really appreciated them.
Wonderful photos. Not sure how to interpret this challenge but will give it my best shot. Happy Sunday
Funny you should say that— right after I let the doggie out he went and dug a hole and decided he would roll in it.
I enjoyed your “take” on the subject. Your photos are so ‘lively’ I gotta’ get that program.
WOW this was a great entry! I loved them all but my Favorite is the one of your Husband “reflecting”
I like the way you handled that. I tried to keep it open-ended and provocative, and I think I met that goal. People have taken it in wildly different directions.
OMG I LOOOOVE YOUR PHOTOS!!!!!
Very good interpretation of this challenge- I esp. like the chili parlour photo.
