Something for the Weekend - Part 217 - Cracked Up!

Hi

 

Thank you to everyone who took part in Dave's Walk On challenge. A special thank you to Dave for allowing me to take a turn to host this week and share my image! 😊

 

This is a photo I took of the Liberty Bell while visiting Philadelphia. It was made in 1751 and now resides across the street from Independence Hall in the Liberty Bell Center. It's the symbol of liberty and has been used by abolitionists, women's suffrage advocates, and Civil Rights leaders. The inscription says, "Proclaim Liberty Throughout All the Land Unto All the Inhabitants thereof".

 

What story can you tell us with this?

 

The “rules”:

  • Use the starter image as at least part of your own image entry.
  • Anything goes, as long as it meets the forum rules on decency, copyright, etc.
  • Anyone, and everyone, is welcome to have a go, whether you are a complete beginner or a Photoshop expert. This is not just for our forum “regulars”.
  • There are no prizes apart from the chance to practice, show off your skills, or bring a bit of humor and fun. Don't be shy, join in and have a go!
  • The starter image is made available for you to use in this forum challenge only.

 

To download the image, hover over the image and click on the circle with the arrows at the top right. Then, when the image opens in its own window, right click and choose “Save Image As/Save Target As” (or similar depending on your browser).

 

When posting back your image — please use the blue reply button in this first post and use the 'Insert Photos' icon at the top of the reply box. If posting a comment on someone else’s entry, then please use the grey reply button next to their image post.

 

Have fun!

 

Jane

okay, am I going to date myself here.... who remembers Flavor Flav of Public Enemy? Well...for those who don't know Flavor Flav is a singer of a rap group, called Public Enemy. Flavor Flav always wore a huge timepiece (aka clock) around his neck...for some strange reason, I thought of him, when I saw the bell!

That's brilliant @davescm, plus you get bonus points for using SFTW Part 76 "Fly me to the moon", rendered by you five years ago in 2019.

From the look on his twisted face, it appears to be a medieval torture device Derek!
