Here is what gunsan said about her challenge:

LOL It only took thre cups of coffe and some cigarettes to find the new theme: Transitions.
That is what my mind works with just now on many  planes, and I believe of catching what is actual.
To me just now: Transition from summer to Autumn. I discovered it was time  to put on gloves today (to late)
Transitions between places (my train-trip)
Transition between being well and being ill
Transition between earth and heaven in me
Transition between my little hermit place and the big city
The list can go on in eternity, so make yourelf ready to enter the train!!!

Hugs and be buzy!!!
Gun

Thanks for a terrific idea, Gun!  This should really inspire a lot of great entries.

Let's run this until Sept. 28, 23:59 Renderosity time.  You may enter an existing work if you like, but we would prefer to see a new work created for this challenge... it IS a challenge after all, lol!  You may enter more than one work, but remember that in the voting, each entry will be judged separately.  Please, please, please put titles on your entries, especially if you have more than one.

OK, now go... and CREATE!!!

Again, from gunsan:

Just want to start you up with an easy one, in case I scared you with the contest theme.
The transition between day and night,

Fractals will always amaze me!

Great theme Gun! Here is one that just went into my gallery. The transition from Infrared light to the visible spectrum. Title: **One Thousand Fronds** Also, the transition for me from the first 1000 images in my gallery to the second thousand. ;']

Here is another transition, also a double one. First the transition between two kinds of water: icy and flowing. Then it is of course the transition between winter and spring. It is our little sea, 10 minutes walk from my house. It is called Ramsjön. Sjö is the Swedish word for lake.

Kort, your image is a wonder!

Gorgeous! :)

LOL, when I look at your avatar, you already have your finger out!

Kort,  that picture is so you. Always moving between colors and IR shots. 

Gunsan, beautiful lake you have just around your corner.

My 1st entry title: decaying
This is my airplant's leaf, from green slowly turns to the end.

Great leaf Tunde, I really like the decaying colors, good idea.

Gunsan, your picture is amazing and I like this mood on it !

Tunde, I like so much this texture and the colors !

Gun saw my latest painting and commented that it would fit the Transitions Challenge.  So, here I am.  This is a twofer.  As I wrote an accompanying poem for the Writers Challenge.

The link is to the poem with a small version of the painting. 

I appreciate being able to participate.  Thank Gun!

I tried to provide a link to just the painting, but my coding is not the best and it wouldn't work.  I will try it the easy way.

So beautiful Kort!

Attached Link: DUALITY

Thanks Kort for reminding me about the challenge and this image.   Let's see a zebra stripped macaw.  Very creative!  How many cups of coffee have you had?  :biggrin:

OK, I will add it to the challenge.  This was originally titled Masquerade Ball, but I had a second look after some sleep and decided to change the title to duality.

On my second look, I saw a mask shared by two people, the couple attending the Masquerade Ball.  They have a shared public face, and a shared hidden private face.  They share the mood, gay on the outside, but somber on the inside, for whatever reason.

Dream of transition Sounds to feel good on the outside and inside, and to imagine hearing the wish of your unknown voice, between the sky and sea...

Valerie, that's absolutely gorgeous!

as i have little time because i am very busy building part of a town in the 3d modeling forum there is only now and then that i work on something else. this is what i add to now and then. there still has to be modeled a lot before it is ready, but as it is from the time 'analog' drawing was all there was it is, i think, the right thing for 'transitions'. sorry, it's still a wip, but as a wip is a transition too i thought i put it in.

Val, so very bautiful and moody!
Koosie, I have tried, but I don't know what your transition is. You have to enlighten me.

Thanks Gog abd gunsan

Koosie, this work is so excellent and the render is increible !

gun, this is a drawing table with triangles, ruler, card box for index cards, reference books, pencil sharpener and there will be much more on it when it is finished. the broad low drawer is for paper. it was used for  'technical' drawing. i used that for drawing posters, letters, advertisments and the like, but the computer took all that over. so this is the beginning of a transition.

"The light at the end of the tunnel may be an oncoming train"

looks like a very hard work Koosie, and very effectiv in the result...

Better start your renders soon!  We will be closing the entries for voting in a few days.  Let me know if you need a little more time.

Transitions of Time

This is my entry for the September Challenge. It depicts the transiotns of time and how the parent/child relationship can be reversed due to aging.

Hopefully I get this posted correctly lol

Great concept and image! You did post it correctly. ;']

One last image from me, I could not resist. Transition from Analogue to Digital/Physical world to Cyberspace.

I really appreciate  this photo, as I find clouds difficult to represent without under-exposing the landscape.  You've chosen an excellent balance here.

Attention to coincidence facilitates synchronicity.

Thanks Windworker for your commentary. It's a little hard to make it, because I make it in mode landscape with my camera and wihtout flash, so for to make it, I need the tripode and waiting the works of my camera (3 seconds of translation in the camera)... and without to touch it, or you make a very great and strange fractal lollll
