Inspiration 12 - Resolution

Here we have the first submissions for the new year!  Thanks to all who participated.  For those of you who would like to join in the fun, please do.  Deadlines are always on the 5th and 20th of each month.  Click here for future inspiration themes and here for extra inspiration.   The next theme is "Page 25 of a magazine you are reading" due on February 5th.  You can submit anything your imagination wants to create.  Have fun!  You can also choose from any of the "extra inspirations" to submit at any point during the month.  As always, should you care to learn more about a particular artist or one of the works below you can either click on the link of that artist's name (located on the left side bar) or click on the name in each submission.

I chose the word "Resolution" because it was January and the new year, time for resolutions.  But I wondered if anyone would take the word and use it in the sense of photography and resolution for the image.  Nope.  I chose to go the first route as well.  Here you have this rounds submissions, enjoy!

Theme One - The Inspiration
The original photo that served as our inspiration was found in a container of old family slides.  (I think my dad took this one.)  The image was never color corrected but I love it.
