*** Mini Challenge 692 There's "nothing" to shoot!***

Thanks to The Light Stalker for choosing my photo of our cat Albert as the last mini challenge (Favorites) winner, as well as my farm panorama as 3rd place. A mighty honor in this company!

For this challenge, I'd like to offer a theme we've probably encountered at one time or another: There's "nothing" to shoot

I think we all have times when we lose creative impetus and we're just not "seeing it" (I do!). If we're honest with ourselves we know the shot is always there, we just need to see / find it.

The old saying goes, "familiarity breeds contempt", so show us how you creatively pushed past the ordinary and produced extraordinary results when there was "nothing" to shoot!

In keeping with past challenges, this one will end in two weeks at 9:00 PM Eastern time on Thursday, March 11, 2022. I'll post the runners-up and winner the following day.

Challenge Rules:

The host gives you a topic and you post up to three images that fit. Remember, it's all about fun, sharing, and learning. Any picture you have taken in person is eligible, regardless of the time taken, camera, or post-processing used. The host chooses the winners and honorable mentions and posts those in a new thread. The host's decision is final. The winner of this challenge then hosts the next challenge, judges the winner of that one, and so on it goes. The winner of this challenge will have 48 hours to post the next challenge. If that doesn't happen, 2nd place will have 24 hours to do so, then it's up to 3rd place.

Submission Posting Guidelines:

Post each one of your three submissions in its own reply to this post. Give each post a unique Subject, please. It is best to embed an image in its post rather than linking to somewhere else. Feel free to post photos "for exhibition only" if you want to share more than three, or won't be available to host the next challenge. Try to preserve the EXIF please, so we can see which camera, lens, and settings were used.

Comment Posting Guidelines:

Feel free to post comments on the images or ask for comments. Don't hesitate to click on the green "Like" thumb on the top right of the post, so we know which images were most popular. Likes are appreciated as much as constructive criticism is. The host can make up his or her own mind without being influenced by that.

I wish you all "good luck." Now, let's see some "something from nothing" pictures, and please, challenge the host with your images.
