Yes, after I Thought of the theme I had to do quite a bit of looking to come up with my samples also.
Nice shot with the grapes! And I like the "pocket trumpet " You must have some pretty big pockets :-D
Great Shot
Entry - Looking through our bedroom window of a rental in the Provence region of France. That's my pocket trumpet I used to travel with to stay in playing shape while away from home for several weeks.
Yup a Nice shot
Entry - One of the side-domes of St. Peter's Cathedral in Rome. The art of the oval dome being framed by the arches.
Great shot of the Eiffel Tower. Very unique.
Exhibition - The spire of the c.1700 church is framed by the c.1990's office building in Copenhagen.
Exhibition - A somewhat different glimpse of the Eiffel Tower in Paris.
Whew, You get around more than I do! Another nice one
Exhibition - The spire of the town castle in Cesky Krumlov, Czech Republic
Looks to me like Canyonlands???? Nice tho
Exhibition - a c.1200 castle built on a rocky outcrop of rock in the middle of a lake in Finland, just a few miles from the Russian border. There were three similar towers. Looking through the circular cannon window of one, toward another.
And a few examples in nature...
Exhibition - Arches National Park, Utah (I'll bet you have a similar photo, Bill), looking
Yup, that and many more like it! A great park for the eyes!through one of the arches. Or maybe it was Canyonlands NP. I can't remember for sure.
Exhibition - Looking down on Yosemite Valley, framed by the trees. (I'll bet you have this one, too)
Simple but elegant and very tranquil looking. Beats walking on pavement!
Exhibition - A tranquil path framed by the trees in rural Ireland.

On an island in the Sea of Marmara, just outside of Istanbul, looking out to sea toward two other islands in the distance, framed by the trees.

They are all nice additions to the theme. I like the last one best..."Off the Beaten Path"

Same house but view from the patio.
a view of Yuen Long, New Territories
You do have a good photographic "Eye"

Just because I think it's more fun to enter, the second and third images are 2 of my favorite images, and with you judging, I don't think I'll win, lol.
Sincerely,
Den
with you judging, I don't think I'll win, lol
Well, Dan, I don't know why you would say that as I'd choose you if I thought your photo was a winner, but .... you are right for this challenge, just cause I know you won't be able to host a new one.

The winged, man-faced bulls are Assyrian, they're in the Louvre in Paris. If you look at them closely you'll see they actually have five legs. Viewed head on they appear to be standing still with two legs visible but from the side they are portrayed asvmoving with four visible legs.
I'll have to try cloning out the walking man.

As you can see, I do look for scenes to frame subjects. Which is what I was thinking when I chose the theme but, however you interpret the theme is fine with me :-D. Afterall this is supposed to be fun and I know I can be a little anal in my challenges...which I apologize for and will not be on this challenge! Especially considering I really didn't win the last one..only 2nd place.

What i stated was really tongue in cheek, but hope you aren't so biased as to not consider my photos for other recognition just because I can't host this time. Thought these challenges were based on photographic merit.
In any case, thanks for hosting this one in my absence and keep enjoying your photography.
Regards,
Den

Photo taken yesterday (Feb 10, 2016) between the border of Hong Kong and China while hiking. Pity that the focus is not on the lady but it looks interesting.
