Cut to the hot hot summer of 2012. We could see it coming in our rearview mirror: this bruise blooming, darkening the sky as it gained speed and intensity. It turned bright sunshine into strange green light as we raced down the highway in a bid to outrun a Canadian prairie thunderstorm.

In a post created specifically for this challenge, post a photograph that evokes FORESHADOW to you.

krista This challenge offers some fun opportunities to play — not only with the subject of your photo, but with light, color, and contrast to evoke foreshadow. Perhaps foreshadow is an open bottle of red wine and two wine glasses. Maybe it’s a diamond ring in small velvet box. Maybe it’s a flower bud about to burst into bloom, or the first leaf that turns color on your oak tree. What does foreshadow mean to you? Looking forward to seeing the creative ways in which you portray foreshadow in your posts.

Don’t forget to sign up for our newsletter — we’ll feature some of our favorite shots from the month’s most popular photo challenge in our monthly missive.

    1. “Blue storm-clouds in hot heavens of mid-July
      Hung heavy, brooding over land and sea:
      Our hearts, a-tremble, throbbed in harmony
      With the wild, restless tone of air and sky…” – Emma Lazarus.
