The Photograph of the most important Photograph of my life

Challenge #2 in the The Mystic Look of Mundane Life series. Hosted by Saswata.

Challenge has finished

It happens with everyone of us. We grow up seeing a photograph adorning the wall since the time unknown. It could be the wall of our bedroom, the office meeting room, the pub or even in a small shop where we visit quite often. Sometimes we inquire about it, sometimes we just ignore its presence. But, whether we like or not, it remains as a part of our life.

I like this theme and somehow sadden that a lot has missed the idea behind it. Particularly the placement of the photo and ambiance.

That was my thought as well. Though not everyone interprets rules the same way. For me it was more about trying to make a creative photo of the other and less about what the other photo contains.

Wait, you said "the most important Photograph of my life" but you allow three per entrant? ;)

Hey Onlooker,
Good that you are back !
(really we need a person like you in every phase of our life... who can show us which is right and which is not)

Can I ask you few questions, dear ?
For how long you are into clicking snaps ?
Which one is 'The Best' snap of your life ?
Have you already clicked it ?
Even if you have clicked it how long will it be your 'Best' snap ?

The point I am trying to prove is ...'The Best' / 'The Most Important' is not constant through out the life.
It keeps on changing.

So, you can have 'most important' not just three even more.

Cheers buddy.
Keep banging your head for new ideas !
Appreciate !

:-D

Onlooker, that was my first thought as well. The way I read it there can only be one, even if it's not the same one as it was last week. Either way I'll enter "one".

That must be the most patronizing reply of your life . . or at least one of your 3 most patronizing replies.
